Radio Frequency Facial
Radio Frequency Skin Tightening Facial
What is Radio Frequency ?
Radiofrequency skin tightening is a facial aesthetic procedure that uses a device to emit radiofrequency waves into the outer layer of the skin.
This produces heat, which in turn reduces wrinkles, stimulates collagen production, and restores elasticity to give your skin a tighter-looking appearance.
Wrinkles, fine lines and sagging skin typically are the result of lost collagen and elastin from factors such as age, sun damage or even genetics.
We also include electroporation (No Needle Mesotherapy) which uses an electromagnectic pulse to increase the permeability of the skin cells membrane by temporarily opening up channels in the skin.
When combined these two complementary treatments (Radio Frequency and Electroporation) from one incredible facial for immediate and long-lasting results.
How does Radio Frequency work ?
A radiofrequency facial tightens your skin and refines its contours.
The radiofrequency heats up the lower levels of the skin, making the collagen within them contract.
This has a small but instant shrink-wrapping effect on the face and also stimulates the skin to produce more of its own collagen over the next few weeks.

What happens in a Radio Frequency Facial treatment ?
Following a consultation your face will be cleansed and toned, followed by a gentle ‘no peel’ exfoliation.
The Radio frequency is then applied to the face and neck, which will feel warming and relaxing.
Following this is the electroporation which will help to infuse the skin with a cocktail of hydrating ingredients.
The facial is concluded with a collagen sheet mask and moisturiser/ sunscreen.
How many treatments of radio frequency do you need to see results ?
Most clients will require an initial series of at least three to four treatments to see the desired results. You may require more treatments if you have moderate-to-severe skin concerns, such as deep acne scarring or dynamic wrinkles.
How quickly will I see results ?
You should see results from your first treatment. The treatment is progressive so you will continue to see even better results after each treatment.
After completion of your course, you can continue to see results for up to 3 months.
Is the treatment painful ?
The treatment should feel very warming on the skin but not painful. Most people find the treatment very relaxing and pleasant.
We will always ask for your feedback to ensure the treatment is enjoyable and not uncomfortable.
How long do radiofrequency facials take ?
A radiofrequency facial typically takes approximately 45 minutes.
What is the after care for a Radio frequency facial treatment ?
- We advise you to hydrate the skin well for seven days following procedure.
- Refrain from tanning or prolonged sun exposure for two weeks after the procedure.
- Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to the treatment area for up to two weeks to avoid incidental sun exposure.
- Avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours.
Are there any side effects to the treatment ?
After the treatment, the skin may feel tight with mild redness.
It is therefore important that you use a good moisturiser.
These effects normally subside within 36 hours of treatment.
