INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the HoMedics Newa® Skin Rejuvenation System.
ABOUT THE NEWA
Based on 3DEEP® technology, the Newa is a home use, energy based system for anti wrinkle and skin rejuvenation treatment.
The Newa, by utilizing six unique electrodes, transmits thermal (heat) energy into the deep layers of the skin to trigger collagen remodeling that will reduce the appearance of winkles and improve your skin tone and texture. 3DEEP
®
Radio Frequency technology combines the delivery of controlled heat deep into the skin, while preserving the overlying epidermis.
WHY IT WORKS
How wrinkles form
The connective tissue in our skin contains the supportive structural components (Collagen and Elastin fibers) that give the skin its shape. The Collagen fibers are responsible for skin strength and tone. The Elastin fibers allow skin flexibility or elasticity. With aging, the Collagen and Elastin fibers weaken and the production of new fibers slows down. These structural changes cause the skin to loosen causing skin sagging and wrinkles.
Rejuvenate the Skin’s Support Structure
The Newa device is designated to tighten the existing collagen fibers and triggering new Collagen and Elastin formation by reaching the deep dermal layers where new Collagen and Elastin fibers form.
