Skin Tightening with Radio Frequency
Radio Frequency (RF) is the new technology available for skin tightening treatments. RF technology is designed to treat loose and ageing skin. RF treatments help to energize the skin, toning and strengthening it to reverse the signs of ageing. RF is used for treatment of the following areas:
- Chin & Jowls
- Neck Skin
- Forehead & Brow
- Abdomen & Flanks
- Upper Arms & Hands
- Buttocks
- Inner & Outer Thighs
- Cellulite & Stretch Marks
At River City Cosmetic Medicine Clinic, we use Unipolar and Bipolar radio frequency technologies to tighten both the very superficial layers of the skin as well as the skin’s sub-dermal layer. The result is skin shrinkage, new collagen production and increased blood circulation, all of which provide lifting and tightening effects. You will notice a change in your skin immediately after the first treatment and it will continue to improve for weeks to come. Loose skin will be firmer and more toned, not to mention healthier and younger looking.
A Radio frequency (RF) skin tightening treatment takes about 15- 30 minutes and is designed to provide maximum comfort for the patient. The patient experiences only a slight sensation of warmth while an applicator is moved over targeted areas of loose skin, cellulite or fine lines or wrinkles.
Radio frequency skin tightening is popular primarily because of its high efficacy and no recovery time. Your skin may remain slightly red for 15 minutes after the procedure. It may also feel somewhat dry for 24 to 48 hours after the treatment, but patients may return to their normal daily routine immediately.
Although some effect is visible after one session, we recommend a series of 4-8 Radio Frequency skin tightening treatments, approximately weekly, with the best effect being seen about three months following the final treatment.
