COLLAGEN WAVE- Radiofrequency skin tightening
The use of radiofrequency in medical practise is not new. It has been used medically for many years. Radiofrequency is now an effective treatment for long term non-surgical facial skin tightening. It requires no time off and makeup can be applied straight after the treatment. Also, radio frequency can be combined with numerous other skin rejuvenation and aesthetic treatments. It rests on the principle of the modification of deeper skin layers through heat, which is delivered across the skin without damaging the surface.

Radiofrequency has the ability to heat up deeper layers of the skin. Each time the device touches the skin, it delivers a safe and controlled amount of radiofrequency energy. This heats a large area of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin and underlying tissue. The heating action causes deep collagen structures in the skin to immediately tighten, improving existing collagen. Over time, new collagen is stimulated by the body to further tighten the skin, resulting in healthier smoother skin and a more youthful appearance. The aim of radiofrequency is to give an overall tighter and firmer skin, with a fresher healthy glow.
