Radio-Frequency (RF) Firm-up Facials
Radio Frequency Facials are considered among the most effective non-surgical procedures available today. Via this treatment, radio waves penetrate the outer skin layers and deliver heat energy to the muscles and tissues beneath. This heat stimulates collagen production, and that, in turn, triggers tissue contraction. The overall result is tighter, brighter skin and a significant reduction in sags and wrinkles.
The radio-frequency face-lift has been approved by the FDA as a non-surgical treatment for wrinkles and facial skin imperfections. This treatment requires no downtime. Best of all, results are immediately noticeable, and they become even more so in the weeks following the treatment as the build-up of collagen effects further skin contraction.

RADIO-FREQUENCY TREATMENTS
Which areas can be treated?
RF energy is commonly used to treat the following areas
• Forehead (lifts brows and tightens forehead skin)
• Under Eyes (thickens skin and tightens and lifts the upper cheek)
• Cheeks (lifts slightly and diminishes enlarged pores)
• Mid-Face and Jaw Line (diminishes jowls and sagging along the jaw line)
• Neck (treats "chicken neck" by tightening skin and diminishing wrinkles
How does an RF Facial work?
RF works through radio wave currents that penetrate deep into the dermis (deepest layer of the skin) and subcutaneous layers of the skin causing tightening of the underlying tissues showing a difference with fine lines, wrinkles, and skin texture.
Do RF Facials hurt?
No. Every patient's experience may vary due to individual pain tolerance. The radio currents provide heat on the skin causing no discomfort. It’s kind of like a warm massage on the skin.
How long is the down-time?
No downtime is needed. It is a non-invasive procedure; no surgery, no injections, no recovery time. You may experience some redness, but this is rare.
How soon do you start seeing results?
Immediately you can see results with the RF facial, instant lifting, tightening and remodeling of the skin.
How long do results last and how many treatments are necessary?
Results vary from patient to patient. They can last up to 10 days. It’s like exercise, the more often you do the treatment the tighter the skin becomes and the longer the results lasts.
​
For best results, 5-10 treatments within 2 weeks of each other are recommended. For a quick lift the treatment can be done every second day to create an amazing face-lift. Your practitioner will advise you of how many treatments would be best for the results you are looking for and your skin condition
