Best Beauty And Spa Center in Columbus Ohio. Radiofrequency Facial, prompting collagen, elastin production, skin firmness, tightness, smoothness
What is a radiofrequency facial?
A radiofrequency facial is a non-invasive treatment that uses heat energy to create a controlled injury to the skin, which in turn stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, the two key proteins responsible for skin firmness, elasticity, and smoothness. This is a nonsurgical method of skin tightening and a popular treatment for the face and neck area. Your body works overtime to heal any injury, whether it’s a big cut or a tiny scratch, churning out fresher, newer, tighter skin. So, what happens if you cause a controlled “injury” to your face? You meet the same result. RF is one of the best choices for those who are interested in restoring their skin to a more youthful appearance.
Is Radiofrequency Right for Me?
Radiofrequency Skin Tightening is safe for all skin types and colors. According to expert advice, RF is suitable for women in their 20s and older who are interested in having smoother, firmer, younger, and more attractive skin.
What Results Can I Expect? Does radio frequency really tighten skin?
“Radiofrequency skin tightening increases collagen and elastin production, resulting in tighter skin.” This is due to the fact that collagen and elastin improve skin texture and elasticity while also reducing the appearance of enlarged pores, superficial acne, scarring, and fine lines and wrinkles.
How Long Do Treatments Take? How long should an RF session be?
The treatment lasts between 60 minutes, depending on the area treated. You can expect to see results after 3 to 4 different treatment sessions.
How to prepare for Radiofrequency? What should you not do before radiofrequency?
- 1. One hour before treatment, avoid a heavy meal and fatty foods.
2. Limit caffeine consumption two hours before treatment.
3. Avoid any alcohol 24 hours before treatment.
- 4. Avoid having any laser treatments on the area 2 weeks before treatment.
- 5. Avoid excessive sun exposure (sun burn) on the area 2 weeks before treatment.
- 6. If the skin is red, irritated or broken, we cannot treat until the skin has completely healed
- 7. Treatments may not be appropriate for women who are pregnant or breastfeeding (use consultation before doing).
- 8. Please advise of any blood thinning or skin thinning medications you are taking.
- 9. If you have any metal implants in the area being treated, unfortunately RF is not good for this area. This is because the metal attracts the RF energy and the area can become quite hot and painful.
