VASSALBORO, Maine, Sept. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- John E. Burke, MD, is pleased to announce that Maine Laser Skin Care now offers the Pelleve® Wrinkle Reduction System, a revolutionary skin-tightening system for non-ablative facial rejuvenation.

Dr. Burke uses the advanced radiofrequency treatment, Pelleve, primarily because of the noticeable, fast-acting results the technology offers. "I particularly like that you can show the patient an immediate improvement during and right after the procedure, as well as long-term tightening benefits," says Dr. Burke.

Pelleve is ideal for patients with mild to moderate wrinkles who are seeking a comfortable, virtually pain-free treatment. "Not only do my patients appreciate that Pelleve is virtually painless, but that it allows me to treat the lines very close to the eyes and lips, common problem areas for patients that are very sensitive and traditionally difficult to treat," Dr. Burke explains.

Dr. Burke's patients love the fact that Pelleve is noninvasive, doesn't require pre-treatment prep other than washing the face and removing makeup, and has minimal downtime in terms of redness and swelling, he notes.

The technology works by delivering heat into the deep layers of skin, stimulating the growth of new collagen and tightening skin. "I think Pelleve may very well change how patients age—a fundamental aspect of facial aging and wrinkling will be reversible with this new treatment. Appearing younger than your age will be possible and available without having to consider more invasive, expensive and risky procedures," he says.
