Radiage Skin Tightening

Heat is generated by using radio frequency (RF). This RF is passed through the outer and deeper layers of the skin causing controlled, localised heat injury. This then causes the skin to naturally repair itself leaving tighter, brighter, rejuvenated skin in its place. Radiage skin tightening can be used on all areas of the face including under the eyes, the cheeks, the chin and the jowls.

A local anaesthetic cream is often applied in order to reduce any burning sensation that may appear as the Radiage treatment penetrates heat into the skin. However, this is an optional measure and many patients who have had the procedure do not find the heat uncomfortable.

A single course can take around half an hour to complete and results will last for up to 12 months. There is no real downtime after having a Radiage treatment, although it is common to experience some redness for a few hours straight after the procedure.

Even more dramatic results can be achieved by combining Radiage treatment with microdermabrasion or chemical face peels.
