These treatments include ultrasound, abrasion and physical manipulation of the body to achieve the desired cosmetic effects. Most of these procedures are non-invasive and effective ways to resurface or re-contour the skin. In general, these treatments work by increasing collagen and elastin production below the skin, bringing back a youthful glow and shine. Some treatments also lift and remove the topmost layer of the skin, further enhancing the effect.
