RF Frequency

Radiofrequency (RF) treatments are procedures involving the use of a radiofrequency (RF) energy device to heat up and tighten tissue to boost blood flow and break down cellulite and fat. The radiofrequency energy heats the skin without damaging it, in order to break down fatty cells and stimulate collagen production, which improves skin tone and elasticity. Radiofrequency treatments can be used to treat excess pockets of fat on the stomach, hips and thighs, reduce cellulite and tighten saggy skin caused by weight loss or pregnancy. The treatment is very safe and has minimal downtime.

Radiofrequency treatments are ideal for those who wish to effectively contour the body, reduce fatty deposits and improve the appearance of cellulite.

 Radiofrequency Body Treatment all use unique hand-held devices to deliver RF energy into the skin and deeper tissues to break down cellulite; releasing and flushing away toxins and fatty deposits; draining excess fluid; and boosting collagen production to improve the skins appearance. Most devices are suitable for use on the face and body. Treatment usually takes from 30-60 minutes depending on the size of the treatment area.

During Treatment it will depend on the device being used, and we may draw a treatment grid may then be drawn over the treatment area to assist the practitioner in navigating whilst delivering the RF energy to help ensure an even application of the radiofrequency. A lubricating gel will be applied over the treatment area to allow the probe to move smoothly over the treatment area, then your practitioner will work across the treatment area delivering targeted RF energy.

Depending on the device being used, it may be recommended to have 1 sessions weekly with an average of 3-6 sessions in a treatment program. With all devices, monthly maintenance sessions will be required. Most people find that they can return to normal activities immediately after treatment.

RF energy will heat up your skin and underlying tissue during treatment, although some devices have inbuilt cooling mechanisms to protect your skin from the heat and make the treatment more comfortable. The most common side effects of RF treatment are some swelling, redness or bruising around the treated area, which will typically disappear in a few days.

When controlled heating of the fatty layers under the skin, RF treatments tighten the tissues and boost blood circulation, resulting in fatty deposits being broken down and drained through the lymphatic system, reducing the appearance of  Aging and Cellulite.
