Everything you need to know about RF Skin Tightening
RF skin tightening, also known as Radio Frequency, is quick becoming the in demand treatment for the beauty industry. An excellent non-surgical solution to turning back the clock on ageing, RF targets lax skin to improve the tightness and smoothness of loose skin on the face, neck and body.
How does it work?
Radio Frequency (RF) systems utilise a hand piece that is slowly rotated over the treatment area. The hand piece transmits radio waves through the upper layers of the skin to the dermis, heating the skin to create new collagen formation.
The act of applying this heat to the skins dermis triggers three excellent benefits:
- Tissue retraction – The heat causes local contraction of the collagen fibers, which immediately tightens the skin to reveal a lifted, tighter and more youthful appearance.
- New collagen formation – Heating the dermis stimulates production of new collagen which is essential in the battle against signs of ageing. Increased collagen equals plumper, firmer skin with a greater level of elasticity.
- Improved circulation – RF also improves the blood and lymphatic flow. This helps induce a better oxygen supply and greater toxin clearance to further reduce the signs and effects of ageing.
