RADIO FREQUENCY COLLAGEN STIMULATION
One of the biggest signs of premature ageing is the loss of collagen and skin elasticity. From around the age of 30, we slowly lose collagen and elastin in our skin. As we head into our forties, and especially as we get closer to peri and menopause, our collagen levels plummet as our hormones change. We start noticing the signs of ageing in our skin: loss of elasticity, sagging, fine lines and wrinkles.
Radio Frequency or RF Microneedling is an innovative non-surgical treatment that will effectively help firm, tighten and improve skin texture. The Radio Frequency (heat based) treatment gives a much larger collagen uptake than standard microneedling treatments. The results can often be seen after the first treatment, but best results are seen after around three months as it takes time to build the collagen levels in your skin. We see an Improved hydration, and a firmer, plumper and more youthful skin.
This gentle, effective non invasive anti-ageing treatment is a great way to improve skin texture and fight the signs of ageing naturally. Everyone’s face is unique and a thorough medical consultation is required. Contact us for a no obligation chat where we can determine if you are suitable for this treatment.
