What is an RF Facial Skin Tightening?
RF stands for ‘radio frequency’, this treatment is ideal for clients who want tighter facial skin. During this procedure, targeted radio frequencies are used to heat beneath the skin, breaking down depleted collagen and creating a firmer, more youthful look.*
This type of non-surgical facelift treatment introduces radio frequency (RF) energy to the skin of the face, creating measurable thermal waves that reshape and contract the skin’s collagen and then tighten the surface of the skin. Radio frequency skin tightening requires no cutting or repositioning of the skin, as is necessary during a traditional eye or face lift – and has significantly fewer side effects than older laser skin therapies. Much like laser treatment, RF energy penetrates both the epidermis and the dermis to tighten and rejuvenate the skin, but it causes no damage to existing skin cells.
If you have sensitive skin but want to treat your fine lines and wrinkles, radio frequency skin tightening may be a good option for you, as it is gentler on the skin than most other kinds of thermal procedures.
Our Radio Frequency technology selectively heats skin tissue to promote two responses from the dermal layer. Almost immediately it contracts the collagen fibres which results in radiantly glowing skin. At the same time, it increases the metabolism of the fibroblast in order to accelerate production of both new collagen fibres and new elastin fibres.
Results can be seen as soon as after your first treatment; however, a course of treatments are recommended as results are further improved after each session.
