Radiofrequency (RF)

Radiofrequency (RF) therapy also called radiofrequency skin tightening, is a nonsurgical method of tightening your skin.

The procedure involves using energy waves to heat the deep layer of your skin known as your dermis. This heat stimulates the production of collagen.

Collagen is the most common protein in our body. It creates the framework of our skin and gives our skin its firmness. As we age, our cells produce less collagen, which leads to sagging skin and wrinkles. Skin laxity occurs around age 35 to 40 when the quantity and quality of our collagen begins to decline.

A lot of us do not want to go for invasive anti-ageing procedures like face lift, fillers etc. In such a scenario, non-invasive treatments for skin tightening becomes a great option. In this procedure, infrared light source/ non ablative radiofrequency waves is used to tighten the skin by heating the collagen under the skin’s surface around 50 degrees causing the skin to contract and also stimulates new collagen and elastin fibers formation to achieve long-term skin tightening and lifting which results in a more youthful appearance.

The effects of this procedure are noticeable immediately after the procedure and there is no downtime involved; making it an increasingly popular treatment for treating sagging skin. This treatment is most effective in mild to moderate sagging of the lower face and jowls for skin tightening and lifting. It is commonly used to treat the forehead, under the eyes, face, jaw line, neck, décolletage, abdomen, arms, thighs (inner and outer), and buttocks. A wonderful anti-ageing treatment for all ages.

The treatment can be repeated after a gap of 3- 4 weeks. Duration of one treatment session is 30-45 mins.

Is is safe, painless and suitable for all skin types with no downtime.
