Radiofrequency Face Tightening

FRACTIONAL REJUVENATION AND RESURFACING

While there are other fractional resurfacing options available, most help to improve one or two symptoms of ageing skin. Some are best suited for treating wrinkle while others improve texture or pigment. Fractora delivers improvements for the broadest range of symptoms of ageing skin, all with one treatment.

Radiofrequency rejuvenation improves wrinkles, texture, pigment irregularities, acne scars, blood vessels and redness in a single session. It offers improvement for ageing skin that would normally require two or three technologies to achieve the same results.

WHAT IS RADIOFREQUENCY FACE TIGHTENING?

Radiofrequency face tightening is an effective procedure to slow the effects of ageing and restore your skin so you look and feel younger.

What is the ageing process of the skin? As we age, the skin structures (collagen and elastin) responsible for keeping your skin firm, relax and become less elastic, causing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF FRACTIONATED RADIOFREQUENCY ENERGY?

Fractionated Radiofrequency energy heats the skin in a controlled way to remodel deep collagen to improve the appearance of wrinkles and resurface the skin in a gentle fractional manner, to improve skin tone and texture for a more radiant appearance.

Fractionated Radiofrequency energy has been proven over the years to vastly improve the appearance of ageing skin. Radiofrequency face tightening uses a matrix of micro-pins to resurface the skin and provide superior results with minimal patient downtime.

WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED?

Radiofrequency face tightening can treat sagging skin on the entire face, as well as the lack of definition in some areas such as the forehead, crow’s feet, upper eyelids, jowls, smile lines, and neck. Treatment of the body can include the arms (bingo wings), abdomen and other areas that may need contraction.

CAN RADIOFREQUENCY BE USED IN COMBINATION WITH OTHER TREATMENTS?

Yes, Radiofrequency face tightening can be used as a combination with other treatment depending on Dr Maurizio Viel or Dr Roberto Viel’s advice.

WHEN CAN I PUT MAKE-UP ON AFTER THE  TREATMENT AND WHAT IS THE EXPECTED DOWNTIME?

Make-up can be applied 1 to 2 days after the treatment. Patients should expect to see micro-scabs a few days after treatment and slight redness in the treatment area.

HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE REQUIRED?

Patients can expect to have between 1 – 8 radiofrequency face tightening sessions depending on the indications and treatment settings. Usually, there is a time gap of 4 – 6 weeks between each treatment.

HOW LONG DOES RADIOFREQUENCY FACE TIGHTENING TAKE?

The treatment usually takes around 30 minutes. However, if you require a topical anaesthetic, typically for higher settings, this can take an additional 40 minutes for the cream to take effect.

HOW QUICKLY WILL I SEE RESULTS?

Results can be visible a couple of weeks after the treatment and can continue for up to three months after the treatment.

WHO PERFORMS RADIOFREQUENCY FACE TIGHTENING?

Only trained professionals like our resident plastic surgeons, Dr Maurizio Viel and Dr Roberto Viel, can perform the treatment to ensure a safe and superior result.
