Radiofrequency Treatments
Non-Surgical Skin Rejuvenation
For those seeking non-invasive yet effective solutions for skin rejuvenation, radiofrequency (RF) treatments offer impressive results in tightening, firming, and smoothing the skin. By harnessing the power of energy-based technology, RF treatments can restore youthful contours and improve skin texture without surgery.
At ARCmd in Weston, we offer advanced RF options, including RF microneedling and thermage radiofrequency, tailored to meet your unique skin goals.
WHAT ARE
Radiofrequency Treatments?
Radiofrequency treatments utilize targeted energy to heat the skin’s deeper layers, promoting collagen production and tightening existing collagen fibers. This technology offers visible improvements in skin laxity, texture, and firmness, making it a go-to option for anyone looking to rejuvenate and refresh their skin’s appearance.
COMMON CONCERNS ADDRESSED
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Mild to moderate skin laxity
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Acne scars and stretch marks
- Loose or sagging skin on the face and body
Benefits of Radiofrequency Treatments
- Non-invasive: No incisions, anesthesia, or extended downtime.
- Collagen stimulation: Encourages the body’s natural collagen production for firmer skin.
- Safe for various skin types: Suitable for a broad range of skin tones.
- Natural-looking results: Gradual improvements yield subtle yet impactful results.
- Versatile treatment areas: Can address concerns on both the face and body.
The Radiofrequency Treatment Procedure
Each RF treatment session begins with a consultation to assess your skin goals and determine the best approach. A topical anesthetic may be applied for comfort, depending on the treatment. The device is then used to deliver RF energy precisely to the targeted areas, which may feel warm but tolerable. Sessions typically last 30 to 90 minutes.
Recovery and Expected Results
Following treatment, expect a short recovery period with gradual improvements over time. Here’s what to expect:
- Mild redness or swelling may appear initially, fading within hours to days.
- Smoother, firmer skin emerges over several weeks as collagen production increases.
- Lasting results because with RF microneedling, skin improvements continue over months, while Thermage results may last up to two years.
- Minimal downtime since most patients resume normal activities within a day.
Types of Radiofrequency Treatments We Offer
Radio Frequency (RF) Microneedling
Combining RF energy with microneedling, this treatment creates micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production. The RF energy targets deeper layers, promoting a firmer, smoother texture.
Key Benefits:
- Enhanced skin texture: Reduces roughness, large pores, and uneven tone.
- Scar reduction: Effective for minimizing acne scars and stretch marks.
- Firming effect: Tightens mild to moderate skin laxity.
- Minimal downtime: Typically requires just a few days of recovery.
Thermage Radiofrequency
Thermage delivers RF energy to heat the dermis, tightening collagen fibers and stimulating collagen production over time. Ideal for those with mild to moderate sagging, thermage offers natural skin tightening without surgery.
Key Benefits:
- Long-lasting results: Effects can last up to two years with proper care.
- Suitable for various areas: Treats the face, neck, abdomen, and even the arms.
- Quick, single session: Most people need only one treatment to see significant improvement.
- Minimal to no downtime: Return to daily activities almost immediately.
