• Radiage – Radiofrequency Skin Tightening
Radiage is a new treatment that provides skin tightening without surgery. This treatment uses the application of radiofrequency energy (radio waves) to cause heating of the collagen in the skin. This results in shrinkage of the collagen, leading to a mild tightening of the skin. Radiage is useful for individuals in whom there is a degree of skin wrinkling but not significant skin looseness.
Multiple treatments, usually 4 or 5, are required and these are administered every 3-4 weeks for best results. These feel warm but are not uncomfortable.
Treatments take about 30 minutes and may cause a mild redness of the skin that can last for a few hours. No other side effects have been reported with this technology, making it the safest on the market. |
