Radio Frequency


Radio Frequency (RF) is a gentle non-invasive technique using a round, metallic probe that emits heat to help tighten and lift the skin, enhance lymphatic drainage and improve the tone and hydration of skin.

This effective, painless technique heats the tissue at a deeper level stimulating the collagen and elastin producing cells and the outcome is a tighter, younger, more youthful looking complexion making it an ideal treatment for jowels, and loose skin of the face and neck improving skin contours.

This is an alternative treatment for those who are not fond of needles.

What’s the difference between Radio Frequency and HIFU?


Although HIFU and Radiofrequency have the same purpose of anti-aging and skin tightening, they are different in how they work. The choice between the two depends on the results you want to achieve.

HIFU uses intense ultrasound energy to deliver precise and deep tissue tightening. It can reach layers beyond the dermis (the deep skin layer), even reaching the SMAS layer (near the muscles). On the other hand, RF focuses on heating the skin in a broader way without going as deep as HIFU. It primarily targets the epidermal layers (superficial skin layer) and does not go beyond the deep dermis. HIFU is usually a one-time treatment, while RF may require multiple sessions.

How to choose?


HIFU: If sagging is your main concern and you want a noticeable "lifting" effect, HIFU is a better choice. Its deep tissue tightening provides more prominent results. HIFU is ideal for tightening loose skin around the jowls, improving the appearance of a double chin, or lifting the brows.

Radio Frequency: RF is a less intense method that doesn't penetrate as deeply as HIFU. It is suitable for addressing volume loss or treating delicate areas like the upper and lower eyelids. If you have limited skin laxity but want to add more volume to your face, RF may be the preferred option. It tightens the skin and gives a plumping effect.

Both HIFU and Radiofrequency are effective anti-aging treatments. If you want to learn more about these options, feel free to book a complimentary consultation with one of our experienced professionals.
