RF Skin Tightening & Rejuvenation

RF Skin Tightening & Rejuvenation

Renew MedSpa offers the latest in RF skin tightening with our Refresh RF service. This treatment is noninvasive and helps rejuvenate the skin and address many common concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of collagen, firmness, and elasticity. The treatment rejuvenates existing collagen and stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin for noticeably firmer, smoother, and tighter skin.

Treatment Areas

The Treatment

RF treatments are typically well tolerated with little to no discomfort and no downtime. You may experience mild swelling and redness of the treated skin that usually resolves within 24 hours. Skin tightening may be noticeable immediately post-procedure, but optimal results from collagen rebuilding can take 3 to 6 months.

Results

  • Overall skin rejuvenation
  • Skin lifting and tightening
  • Fine line and wrinkle reduction
  • Improved firmness and elasticity

Downtime

None. You can resume your daily routine directly following treatment.

How it works

Refresh RF delivers focused and uniform thermal RF energy into the dermal layer of the skin without damaging the epidermis. The RF treatment makes collagen contract immediately and promotes collagen remodeling and long-term tightening results.

How many treatments are needed?

A series of 3 treatments is recommended for best results. More treatments may be needed if you have severe skin laxity.

Does it hurt?

This treatment is non-invasive, there is no down time, and is very well tolerated with little to no discomfort.
