Using Radio frequencies, the objective is to produce a localised increase of temperature in the areas where the electrode is applied resulting in minor stress due to the high temperature. This in turn stimulates dermal fibroblast, This triggers the body’s innate healing process, resulting in the production of the skin’s natural structural components like collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. After the skin heals, the result is a tighter, firmer, and lifted complexion. RF can also be used to contour the face and body due to its skin-tightening and fat-reduction capabilities.

With the stimulation of new collagen, the long-term results will be the improvement of the skins appearance and prevent it from aging.

For best results, a series of radio frequency treatments is recommended, to encourage a long-lasting lift and to improve volume on the face and body. 

The area is exposed to thermal waves that shrink the targeted fat cells; the radio frequency separates the fat cells into clusters. Once the fat cells are broken down, then they are absorbed into the body and flushed away naturally through the lymphatic system.
