Our cells conduct RF current in the range 0.3– 10 Megahertz (MHz) using it as part of their own electrical circuit. It flows freely through the tissues. But where there’s any resistance, it generates heat. And the heat produced depends on the electrical properties of the specific tissue. This means Read More

In these treatments the RF heats and stimulates the underlying structures of the skin down to the dermis, causing controlled damage. Heating deeper skin tissues to 67°C gives the best results.The heat denatures the proteins collagen and elastin. This means they unravel. Now, whilst this sounds bad, Read More

First, let’s see what happens in aging skin.Below your skin’s surface, there’s a collagen and elastin scaffolding holding together the dermis and epidermis. This keeps your skin firm and bouncy. From age 30 onwards, we lose around 1 to 2% of our collagen every year.So, gradually this scaffolding bec Read More

your nerves don’t register RF currents because they move too fast.Our nerve membranes have an electrical charge of their own. Any outside source of electricity affects them. An electric shock causes a sensation of pain and makes our muscles twitch. But an RF current is too rapid to do this. It trave Read More

Radio Frequency (RF) is two things.1 First, it’s a type of electromagnetic radiation at a specific frequency range, also known as radio waves.Radio is a type of electromagnetic radiation we use for communications.We’re surrounded by electromagnetic radiation. It comes from many sources including the Read More

The advertised effects of a skin tightening RF treatment on body or face are:Short term collagen shrinkage in the dermisLonger term fibroblast stimulation to create revitalised collagen and elastinStronger skin scaffolding in the deeper skin layersEnhanced cell metabolismRefreshed epidermis/outer la Read More
