WHAT TO EXPECT What to expect from Radio Frequency. This is a non-invasive procedure that produces none to minimal discomfort and no down-time. It can be carried out on all skin types There is no need to adjust any home skin-care routine before having this treatment carried out.  Radio frequency therapy is a skin rejuvenation treatment carried out in a medi-spa setting on a salon treatment table   Firstly, a deep cleanse will be carried out to ensure the skin is free of oil, debris and ready for the treatment  An alcohol swab is passed over the cleansed area to kill bacteria and help minimise the risk of infection The RF therapy treatment will then begin. The technician uses a RF wand passing over the area to be treated in a grid fashion so as a thorough treatment is performed. Throughout the procedure, it is common for the patient not to feel anything throughout the treatment as radio frequency works deep below the skins surface. Due to the nature of the skin, with skin cells constantly renewing, the signs of ageing and collagen lose will start to show again over a period of time. This is why it is recommended to stay on maintenance treatments every year or so depending on the condition of the skin.   A nourishing vitamin B serum is applied at the end of the treatment to help soothe the skin. Vitamin B is a powerful nutrient that plays an important role in mitochondrial energy metabolism within the cell, helping to improve cellular function. It is also beneficial for barrier function as it boosts the production of the cell outer membrane.  A broad spectrum SPF is then applied to help protect the damaged skin from UV radiation and the possibility of a pigmentary response. SPF should be worn at all times, especially for the first week post treatment as the barrier function is impaired. For best results the patient should be treated every 1-2 weeks for 1-6 treatments, depending on the condition of the skin
