Radiofrequency skin tightening is an effective non-invasive skin firming treatment. RF skin firming uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production deep within your skin, helping to restore lost elasticity and collagen production.

Collagen is the structural protein that keeps our skin looking firm and plump. Unfortunately your natural levels start to decrease in your late 20s - so giving it an RF boost helps prevent those early signs of skin laxity.

A Great Preventative Treatment

Prevention is better than cure, so if you are looking to maintain your skin, before the skins of ageing really start to appear, then RF therapy has three key benefits:

  • Your Secrete Treatment: As it gently boost your natural collagen production - results are slow and progressive. So there is no immediate change and no awkward questions from besties.
  • All Skin Types: RF skin tightening is suitable for all skin types and tones.
  • Non-Invasive: No needles, no numbing, and no discomfort. Many people compare the treatment to a warm, relaxing hot stone facial.

Who is Suitable for RF?

It’s particularly beneficial for people in their 20s and 30s—here’s why:

  • Prevention is Better Than Cure: Beginning RF skin tightening in your 20s and 30s means you’re proactively boosting collagen before significant sagging or wrinkles develop.
  • Natural Collagen Production: Younger skin responds exceptionally well to RF energy, making the collagen-stimulating effects even more effective.
  • Subtle, Natural Enhancements: This is perfect for those who want to maintain a youthful look rather than drastically correct sagging skin later in life.

If you’re in your 40s and 50s, we would recommend RF Microneedling as a more effective treatment to improve the typical levels of skin laxity at this age.

Can I combine RF with other treatments?

Absolutely. HydraEye is a premium combination treatment that pairs TIGHTEN Eye with Hydrafacial to deeply hydrate and refresh the skin around the eyes.

Stretch marks: RF vs Microneedling?

Microneedling is more effective than standalone RF for repairing skin damage from stretching, as the needles break down scar tissue and boost collagen production. 

RF alone promotes skin tightening and collagen but doesn't address scar tissue, but is good at skin tightening. The best results are achieved when they are combined.

Radiofrequency Facial Options

  • TIGHTEN Face: This combines RF skin tightening with a gentle AHA peel and growth factors to create a glowing complexion, brighter eyes, and a more defined jawline.
  • TIGHTEN Eye: Specifically designed for the delicate eye area, this treatment smooths fine wrinkles and firms skin above the brow and under the eyes.

What Results to Expect?

A course of 3-6 treatments is recommended for optimum results during which your body continues to remodel collagen, with full results visible around 3 months after your final treatment. With good skincare and maintenance sessions every 3-6 months, your results can last years.

Note: RF skin tightening is for firming skin. The facial treatment includes a mini AHA peel which will also help brighten your skin to give you a natural glow. However, the treatment is not design to clear or reduce pores - for this result we recommend you look at the Hydrafacial.
