Radio Frequency Skin Tightening
Ice Wave Dream Lift, lifting without surgery
Radio frequency sound waves are a safe, non-invasive way of tightening loose or lax skin around the forehead, eyes, cheeks, mouth, jaw line and jowls and certain areas on the body. This is a great way to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, crepiness and improve skin tone and texture. Refer to our FAQ’s below for further information.
How does Radio-frequency work?
The hand piece is slowly rotated over the target area transmitting radio waves through the upper layers of the skin to the dermis, heating the dermis to between 40 & 50 degrees Celsius without burning the skin surface.
1. Tissue Retraction
The generated heat causes local contraction of the collagen fibres, to immediately tighten the skin.
2. New collagen formation
By heating the dermis, new collagen production is stimulated. This tightening effect is delayed and may take from 3-6 months to be visible.
3. Improved circulation
RF will also improve the blood and lymphatic flow. This helps with a better oxygen supply and greater toxin clearance to further reduce the effects of ageing.
Radiofrequency Skin Tightening will give immediate lifting and tightening effects as well as longer lasting tightening within 3-6 months when new collagen has been produced.
