Radio Frequency Face Lifts

RF Face penetrates the skin layers to selectively heat the skin tissue and the extra cellular matrix where the collagen fibres are embedded. The local heating of the area being treated causes an immediate contraction of the collagen fibres, and at the same time increases the metabolism of the fibroblast in order to accelerate production of new collagen fibres and elastin fibres to create a smoother, healthier and younger looking skin.

For plumper, firmer & tighter looking skin a course of 8 is recommended.

Quick & Convenient

A treatment is less than an hour.

Collagen Production

Radio Frequency Face Lifting stimulates collagen production to plump, tighten, smooth and lift.

Non-Invasive

Radio Frequency Face Lifts are a non surgical treatment.

Radio Frequency Face Lifts penetrate the skin layers to selectively heat the skin tissue and the extra cellular matrix where the collagen fibres are embedded. The local heating of the area being treated causes an immediate contraction of the collagen  fibres, and at the same time increases the metabolism of the fibroblastin order to accelerate production of new collagen fibres and elastin fibres to create a smoother, healthier and younger looking skin.

RF Face is a relaxing treatment. Glycerine will be applied to the skin, this acts as a conductor for the Radio Frequency Energy. A small, round handpiece will be placed onto the skin and moved in gentle circular motions. A slight beeping noise will come from the machine, the handpiece will get warmer and warmer, building heat until it reaches 40 degrees.

Radio Frequency Face Lifts targets anti-ageing for the faceand can treat the forehead ‘crow’s feet’ upper lip, jowls and neck area.

Radio Frequency Face Lifts can also be used as a non-surgical lip plumping treatment
