Radiofrequency Skin Resurfacing and Tightening
Fractional Radiofrequency Skin Resurfacing provides an effective treatment to repair and rejuvenate damaged skin. This is a non-invasive treatment delivering non-specific heat to target the dermal tissue (the deeper layer of the skin) while the outer layer of the skin (epidermis) remains relatively intact. This micro-injury to the dermis stimulates collagen production, resulting in a reduction in fine lines, mild to moderate wrinkles, skin laxity, acne and acne scarring.
Good to know
RF fractional resurfacing is a non-invasive treatment, so there is very little downtime associated with this procedure. Most clients experience erythema (redness), warmth (sunburn sensation) and mild stinging in the area, ranging from a few hours to 3-5 days following the treatment. Temporary ‘patterning’ of the skin can occur in some skin types. This is easily covered by makeup. Minor flaking, peeling and/or prolonged erythema (redness) of the skin can occur at higher settings, but your therapist will let you know if this is likely to happen.

How do RF treatments work?
By using bipolar radio-frequency technology the outer layer of the epidermis is only partially ablated. The heated energy is targeted deep below the surface layers to stimulate collagen production at its source. Since this procedure is only partially ablating, you will receive all the eMatrix Focal Tip benefits listed above with very little downtime. After only a few days you will notice your under-eye area becoming firmer, tighter, and brighter.
→ Rejuvenation of the delicate eye area
→ Reduces wrinkles and fine lines
→ Plumps sagging skin
→ Decreases puffiness
→ Increases cell replacement
→ Creates new collagen and elastin
Number of treatments
Although you will likely see a noticeable improvement in your skin after your first treatment, most people experience optimal improvement over the course of 3-5 treatments, with 4-6 weeks recommended between sessions.
