What is RF or radio frequency and RF Skin Tightening?
RF (Radio Frequency) treatment heats the subcutaneous skin fibres which cause shrinkage, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The skin becomes more smooth and compact and improving skin tone and elasticity. Radio frequency re-structures and contracts existing collagen and stimulates fresh collagen production to give noticeable yet natural results. Clients benefit from a healthier, smoother and more youthful looking skin.
The collagen protein is regenerated for a period of 6-12 months.
Course of treatment: includes 3 to 5 treatments at an interval of every 10-15 days.
Treatment duration: Approximately 30-60 minutes depending on the area being treated.
Since gaining US FDA approval in 2002, it has been widely used as a non-ablative skin rejuvenation method.Non ablative radio frequency energy is the newest addition to the treatment options available for skin tightening, cellulite and fat reduction. It is now possible to deliver RF energy to the deep dermal and sub-dermal layers of the skin, whilst protecting the epidermis (outer layer of the skin). Heating the dermal and sub dermal layers of the skin causes microscopic changes to the tissues and collagen contraction, with subsequent collagen remodelling over the months that follow.
RF helps in both face and body contouring
And for double chin !
RF is a pretty versatile treatment as it can also help reduce flabby skin, tighten bingo wings, contour and tighten a post pregnancy tummy, reduce fine lines and wrinkles (on the face and body), reduce saddle bags and even lift and tighten your bum.
In the not so distant past the only way to reduce facial skin sagging was by a surgical “face lift” procedure. Such cosmetic surgery may produce fairly good results but it is costly, takes several weeks to recover from and is not without its share of possible complications and side effects.
Through use of RF treatment for face, it is now possible to achieve substantial reduction in facial skin sagging and double chin without the use of the surgeon’s scalpel.
you won’t need any recovery time and is FDA and CE approved .
How RF Facial Skin Treatments Work
As our skin matures, the collagen and elastin proteins which help support a tight skin structure, start to break down. As the skin loses elasticity, fine lines, wrinkles and a dull or saggy appearance start developing.
RF treatment for face works by delivering radiofrequency electromagnetic energy onto the facial skin via an electrode. Through use of certain frequencies it is possible to penetrate the outer skin layers (the “upper dermis” and “epidermis”). The energy is then absorbed by underlying skin tissues causing them to heat up, cooling the skin surface using cryogenic spray prevents damage to the top layers of skin.
Radio frequency devices produce an electric current using electromagnetic radiation falling within the frequency range of 3 to 300GHz. When this current passes through a tissue layer it produces heat. The radio frequency energy penetrates the skin layers to selectively heat the skin tissue where the collagen fibres are embedded. The local heating causes an immediate contraction of the collagen fibres, and fat cells drain then shrink, while fibroblast cells (part of our connective tissue) are stimulated to produce new collagen and elastic fibres. The effect of this is tighter, smoother, younger looking skin with a visible ‘lift’ . Fat cells are reduced and stubborn cellulite looks a lot less noticeable.
The effects of RF treatment for face are substantial reduction in depth of wrinkles, elimination of facial skin blemishes, tighter facial skin and an overall more youthful facial skin complexion.

RF[radiofrequency procedure]
The therapist will apply a lubricant jelly to your skin to act as a protective barrier between you and the electrode rod . Then the treatment is usually delivered by placing an electrode onto the skin and applying alternating current of the required frequency. As a result, the skin is deep-treated with controlled doses of targeted radiowaves. The electrode rod is rubbed over your skin, focusing on any problematic target areas that need extra attention. The technique is actually relaxing .
The Each area on your body is treated for 20-30 minutes.
When can I see the results?
The results continue to emerge in the days following the treatment .Most patients will be able to notice an immediate result in the tightness of their skin. Skin is remarkably smoother and its tone is improved too.
For long term results , multiple sessions are required, generally 1-3 per week until you’ve had about 4-8 treatments in total, this depends on the results you want and the advice of your aesthetic practitioner.
To maintain the effects try and lead a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercise otherwise that cellulite could just as easily come back.
Are there any side effects?
Normally there are no side effects from the treatment, but some people might find the treatment area to be red for few minutes .
