Overview

Firmer skin, from within

Radio Frequency (RF) is a non-invasive treatment that uses controlled heat to warm the deeper layers of the skin. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to firmer, tighter, smoother skin over time. It's suited to the face, neck, décolletage, abdomen, arms, thighs and buttocks.

How It Works

Warmth that builds firmness

Controlled Heat

Radio frequency energy warms the deeper layers of the skin evenly, without damaging the surface above.

Collagen & Elastin Stimulation

The warmth encourages the skin to produce fresh collagen and elastin from within, the proteins that keep skin firm.

Gradual Firming

Skin becomes firmer, tighter and smoother as the new collagen builds over the following weeks.

Benefits

What to expect

✓ Tightens loose skin on the face and body.
✓ Reduces fine lines, wrinkles and improves skin texture.
✓ Helps contour the jawline.
✓ Reduces mild cellulite and can improve skin laxity after weight loss.

Aftercare

Caring for your skin afterwards

Expect mild warmth or rednessA warming sensation or light redness for a short while afterwards is normal and settles on its own.
Protect with SPFApply a broad-spectrum SPF daily, particularly on treated areas exposed to the sun.
Be patient with resultsFirming builds gradually over several weeks as new collagen and elastin form.
Course of treatments for full effectA series of sessions is often recommended, spaced a week or two apart, for the best result.
Stay hydratedDrinking enough water supports the skin's natural renewal process over the following weeks.

This is general guidance only. Your therapist will confirm aftercare specific to your skin during your consultation.
