RF SECTUM – radio frequency – face, neck, décolleté
What is radiofrequency for the face, neck and décolleté?
Radiofrequency is an effective and well-known anti-aging treatment that strengthens, tightens and lifts the skin, without the need for invasive surgical procedures.
Radiofrequency treatment is based on deep and controlled heating of the skin with an electrode, which leads to improved circulation and cell metabolism, increased tissue elasticity and muscle tone and, ultimately, to the activation of fibroblasts, which stimulates the creation of new collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. This treatment is safe to use on any part of the body where a person wants to achieve tight, firm, smooth and glowing skin.
How does RF SECTUM radio frequency work?
Radiofrequency is used for non-surgical shaping of the face and body - with different electrodes.
In the St. Catherine Specialty Hospital we use the Neauvia Sectum radiofrequency generator in aesthetic mode, which works via two hand-held probes for the face and body, which thus deliver radiofrequency energy in bipolar mode. Facial radiofrequency is used to achieve fast and painless skin rejuvenation. The resulting effect is tightening of sagging skin, removal of gray hair and fatigue, reduction of wrinkles and regeneration of tissues and skin. Radiofrequency of the face can also be used to reduce the underarms, lift the eyelids and reduce the puffiness under the eyes. Radiofrequency can be combined with hydro booster from the same line of Neauvia, which, in addition to the regeneration of the skin caused by the RF previously applied preparation, also leads to perfect hydration and refreshment of the skin, i.e. its fresher and rejuvenated appearance. In simpler terms, radiofrequency has a positive effect on every cell of the face, enabling better absorption of nutrients from the bloodstream, increasing the oxygen content in the blood, and encouraging the body to reject waste material and build new tissues.
In addition to the face, the treatment is recommended to be done on the neck and décolleté at the same time in order to achieve a rounded and complete effect.
The treatment itself is very pleasant, roughly lasts 30-60 minutes, and after it no recovery is required, i.e. the patient can return to daily activities immediately after the treatment.
What are the results after radiofrequency treatment?
The result is visible immediately after the first treatment, which is visibly tighter, firmer, fresher and brighter skin, with better tone. The final results will be visible in 4-6 weeks, which is how long it takes for the collagen to be completely restored. However, although the changes are already visible after the first treatment, it is recommended to do 3-6 treatments in a period of one month for the best results.
In order to maintain the results for a longer period of time, it is necessary to repeat the treatments after its completion - ideally, the treatment should be repeated every 4-6 weeks, depending on the age and skin type. With this kind of maintenance, the radio frequency results are stable and can last up to two years.
Radiofrequency is suitable for all skin types and any age over 25 years.
