Radiofrequency Skin Tightening

What it does

RF energy gently heats the deeper layers of tissue under the skin. That controlled heat stimulates the body's natural collagen and elastin response. Collagen is part of the support structure of skin, and we produce less of it with age, menopause, pregnancy, and weight loss, which is part of why skin can start to look thinner, looser, or crepey.

This is the one people misjudge. Women often point at their arms, stomach, thighs, or neck and say they need to get rid of fat, and when Bronwyn assesses the area there is very little pinchable fat there at all. What they are seeing is skin laxity. That is when RF becomes a much bigger part of the protocol.

Results build over time. Collagen remodeling is not an overnight process. The body keeps doing that work after you leave, which is why skin tightening results accumulate across a series of treatments.

What it feels like

Warm, and progressively warmer as she works. Gel on the area and a handheld applicator moving continuously across the skin. At first you mostly feel the movement, then the area gradually warms, and eventually it becomes a deeper sustained warmth. Many clients compare it to a hot stone massage.

Bronwyn is direct about the heat: there can be moments where it gets a little hot. That is why she keeps the handpiece moving and keeps talking to you. Nobody has to lie there and tough it out. Say something and she adjusts. No needles, no cutting, no suction, no shocks.

"Once clients understand what I'm trying to accomplish with that heat, RF tends to become one of their favorite parts of the appointment."
