Radiofrequency
What is it?
Radiofrequency heats the tissues under the skin to stimulate tightening and collagen production. It can be used alone or combined with liposuction, on the face, neck or body.
Who is it for?
It is intended for mild to moderate skin laxity.
How it is done
Consultation, then a session or procedure depending on the technology used.
Anaesthesia
Local anaesthesia or sedation depending on the technique.
Recovery
Temporary redness or swelling.
The result
Firming is gradual over several months.
Risks
Like any procedure, this one carries risks that are rare but real (infection, haematoma, healing problems, asymmetry, reaction to anaesthesia...). They are explained in detail during the consultation, with written information.
