- Collagen production - Skin tightening - Wrinkle reduction - Minimising acne scars - Minimising pores WHAT IS RADIO FREQUENCY? The RF produces alternating high and low frequency currents no less than a thousand times per second. Water molecules within the skin tissue twist and vibrate, causing friction and creating 45C-60C degree heat. This heat promotes blood circulation and also generates a wound-healing response within the body. The dermal layer of the skin thickens and collagen is newly produced, resulting in wrinkles being pushed out as the skin becomes more firm. RF provide controlled energy for deep up to 20mm and superficial 2-6 mm penetration. HOW MANY SESSIONS ARE NEEDED? 1 session is needed per week.
