Radio Frequency

Radio frequency (RF) skin tightening is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that uses RF energy to heat the deep layers of the skin. This heat stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to tighter, firmer skin. The treatment can also reduce fat cells and improve skin texture. It's commonly used to contour areas such as the abdomen, thighs, arms, and buttocks, offering a smoother and more toned appearance without surgery or downtime.

What Can I expect?

During a radio frequency (RF) treatment session, you can expect the following:


  1. Consultation: A pre-treatment consultation to discuss your goals, medical history, and the areas you want to target.
  2. Preparation: The treatment area will be cleansed, and a conductive gel may be applied to help the RF energy penetrate the skin more effectively.
  3. Treatment: The practitioner will use a handheld RF device, moving it over the targeted area. You'll feel a warming sensation as the RF energy heats the deeper layers of your skin. 
  4. Duration: Each session typically lasts between 15 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area.
  5. Comfort: Most people find the treatment comfortable. The warming sensation is usually well-tolerated, and any discomfort is minimal.
  6. Post-Treatment: There is no downtime, so you can resume normal activities immediately after the session. Sun exposure should be limited for 24hrs after treatment. The treated area may be slightly red or warm but should return to normal within a few hours.
  7. Results: You may start to see initial improvements after one or two sessions, with optimal results developing over several weeks as collagen and elastin production increases.
  8. Follow-Up: Multiple sessions are often required for the best results, typically spaced a few weeks apart.
  9. Hydration: Staying hydrated is recommended to support the skin's recovery and the effectiveness of the treatment.


Overall, RF skin tightening is a convenient and non-invasive option for body contouring, with minimal risks and no recovery time.

  7. Severe Diabetes: Individuals with severe diabetes may experience complications due to impaired healing and circulation.
  8. Blood Disorders: Conditions affecting blood clotting or those taking anticoagulant medications should avoid RF treatments.
  9. Recent Surgery: Avoid RF treatments on or near areas that have undergone recent surgery (usually within six months).
