It is common to notice subtle changes in skin firmness, elasticity, and contour over time. As collagen production slows, skin can begin to loosen and areas of mild cellulite may become more visible. At Advanced Dermatology, we offer TriPollar Apollo skin tightening to help restore firmness, improve contour, and enhance your natural shape without surgery or downtime.
Our FDA cleared TriPollar treatment uses advanced radiofrequency technology to safely heat the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen and delivering visible tightening results. If you have been searching for a Tripollar treatment near you in the Chicago area, our experienced team with North Shore offices in Glencoe and Lincolnshire is here to help.
How Tripolar Skin Tightening Works
TriPollar Apollo is a radiofrequency device designed to tighten skin, improve the appearance of cellulite, and enhance overall body contours. The treatment works by gently heating the lower layers of your skin while protecting the outer layer.
Collagen, the long stranded protein responsible for skin firmness, lives in the deeper layers of the skin. When collagen is heated, the strands contract and pull closer together. This process creates an immediate tightening effect while also stimulating fibroblasts to produce new collagen over time.
With Tripolar skin tightening, you can expect:
- Tighter, firmer skin
- A reduction in circumference in the treated area
- Enhanced body contours
- Improvement in the appearance of cellulite
Because collagen remodeling is an ongoing process, repeat treatments are necessary to achieve and maintain optimal results.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Tripollar Treatment?
Tripollar treatment is ideal for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity and isolated pockets of fat. If your BMI is less than 30 and you are bothered by stubborn areas on the abdomen, thighs, upper arms, buttocks, or love handles, you may benefit from treatment.
TriPollar Apollo can be safely used on all skin types, making it a versatile option for many patients. However, patients who have recently undergone chemotherapy may also see reduced benefits, as collagen production can be temporarily affected. Individuals with vascular collagen disease may experience less improvement because results depend on the body’s ability to produce collagen in response to heat.
During your consultation, our providers will review your medical history, evaluate your goals, and determine whether Tripolar skin tightening is the right fit for you.
TriPollar Skin Tightening Treatments at Advanced Dermatology

What to Expect During TriPollar Treatment
TriPollar treatment begins with your provider applying glycerin to the treatment area to allow the handpiece to glide smoothly across the skin. Using a three pronged applicator, controlled radiofrequency energy is delivered to gently heat the deeper layers of the skin. Most patients describe the sensation as a warm massage. The skin surface remains protected while the lower layers are heated to stimulate collagen production.
Each session lasts approximately 30 minutes and focuses on one treatment area at a time. There is no need for anesthesia, and the skin is not broken during the procedure. After treatment, the area may appear slightly pink and feel warm for a few hours, but you can return to your normal activities right away.
Before beginning treatment, your provider and cosmetic coordinator will review all potential risks and side effects so you feel fully informed and comfortable moving forward.
