FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I require an initial consultation?
You will be required to see our Aesthetic Consultant for an initial consultation whereby your full medical history will be discussed and the efficacy of the treatment and realistic expectations explained to you.

How does the treatment work?
Radiofrequency has been used for over three years in facial skin remodeling. The heat produced by the system causes instant tightening of collagen and increases collagen production in the dermis.
The effect is to tighten and rejuvenate the skin in the treated area.
With regards to the body treatment, thermal tightening also takes place with increased local blood circulation, promotes fibrous tissue breakdown, drainage of fatty deposits into the lymphatic system and disintegration of fat cells.
The radiofrequency is applied through a hand-piece in a rapid, uninterrupted circular movement onto the surface of the skin.

How long does the treatment take and how many sessions will I require?
Your first treatment will take anywhere from 30 min-2 hours, depending how many areas are being treated. This allows for before photographs to be taken.
For facial remodelling, a course of 2 - 4 sessions is usually required at 4 week intervals. Body treatments usually require a course of 6 - 8 treatments at 7 day intervals. In the case of stubborn cellulite however, treatment can be applied more frequently.

Is the treatment painful?
Tolerance to the treatment is very good and there is no need for the use of topical anaesthetic creams beforehand. Patients will generally experience a warm sensation on the surface of the skin as heat builds up, however, continuous contact cooling provides additional patient comfort and epidermal protection.
