What is RF skin tightening?

Throughout our early years, we are able to enjoy an abundant reserve of collagen and elastin, which helps to keep our skin soft and firm. Over time, this foundational storage of vitamins will most likely decrease, making the skin become less firm, which leads to fine lines and an older appearance. When you would like to enhance the appearance of your skin without surgery, then you could look into radiofrequency (RF) skin tightening at Signature Wellness.

By using the contemporary Opus Plasma® platform, nonsurgical skin tightening works to increase the natural production of collagen and elastin with fractional plasma technology so it’s possible to achieve tighter, glowing skin. Our team in Saline, MI is proud to perform RF skin tightening for individuals who hope to recharge and enhance their skin with lasting nonsurgical options.

What are the benefits of RF skin tightening?

RF skin firming is a sought-after treatment at our Saline, MI office for a variety of reasons. Though there are apparent advantages, like less recovery time and no invasive scars, there are a few added advantages to this minimally invasive treatment, like:

  • Very little downtime
  • Brief treatment time, typically not longer than 60 minutes
  • Enhancements that remain up to one year
  • Tightens many regions on your body, including the face and neck
  • Effective on many skin types
  • Tightens skin while also minimizing natural signs of aging, wrinkles, and lines, plus balancing skin tone and texture

Am I a good candidate for RF skin tightening?

RF skin tightening might be an excellent solution for those who are not a candidate for invasive cosmetic solutions. Nonsurgical skin tightening sessions can be carried out for a variety of areas of the face and body, such as the abdominal area, neck, outer thighs, and upper arms. The most suitable candidates for the Opus Plasma treatment:

  • Are in good general health
  • Keep a healthy weight
  • See mild or moderate lax skin
  • Have lines or wrinkles on their body or face
  • Wish to subtly improve the condition and look of their complexion

How does RF skin tightening work?

Once you arrive at Signature Wellness for your appointment, we’ll start by sanitizing the treatment sites. We may administer a desensitizing ointment to soothe the area over the course of your procedure, but the majority of individuals agree that any minor soreness is fast and tolerable. When you are ready, we will evenly pass the RF device along your skin multiple times for your fullest outcomes. This method works to invigorate your body’s generation of elastin and collagen, which makes the skin tighter and firmer in time. Your session will probably last roughly 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the size and number of the treatment region. When the RF session is finished, you can return to your regular activities.

What to expect after RF skin tightening

Following your procedure, the targeted regions might look pink or swollen, and it’s possible for the skin to feel uncomfortable. However, any irritation should go away quickly. At your initial consultation at Signature Wellness, Allyson Terrell will review the best techniques to care for your skin at home. As you heal, remember to use moisturizing cream and avoid sun exposure. Most individuals won’t notice results immediately following their RF session. Since the production of collagen and elastin happens over time, you can look forward to seeing your final results in a few months. Outcomes following RF skin tightening can last for one year or more.

RF Skin Tightening FAQs

How long will my laser skin tightening results last?

After a laser skin tightening treatment at our office in Saline, MI, the majority of people observe a noticeable improvement in their overall skin appearance and health. As the cell regeneration process occurs over the subsequent several weeks, you should notice ongoing firming, which is generally seen for around 12 – 18 months. Our staff will talk to you about how often you may like to consider subsequent treatments to maintain your improvements.

Can RF skin tightening damage your skin?

No. Studies have shown that RF energy, when used for skin tightening, is totally safe for the skin. This allows patients to eliminate sagging skin and other signs of aging without worrying about causing further damage down the line.

How much does RF skin tightening cost?

The expense of RF skin tightening will depend entirely on the number of treatments you need to achieve your aims. During your first consultation, we will ask about your aesthetic goals and craft a personalized treatment plan, which includes a price approximation.

How many treatments will I need to achieve the look I want?

The correct number of treatments will be based on the initial looseness of your skin, as well as your aesthetic goals. During your exam, we will discuss your concerns and objectives in order to establish how many sessions would be recommended.

Can I have RF skin tightening with other treatments?

Yes, you can. RF skin tightening can be performed as the only treatment or to enhance additional procedures. Many of our patients opt to undergo RF skin tightening at the same time as additional minimally invasive procedures.

Does RF skin tightening hurt?

At Signature Wellness, our priority is to ensure you feel relaxed during the course of your treatment. While the majority of patients find that this noninvasive treatment doesn’t hurt, our staff can provide a local numbing ointment to enhance your comfort so you can have a great experience.
