Radiofrequency increases the metabolism of tissues where it is applied. Increased metabolism will result to increased breakdown of products such as fillers and botox. Furthermore, certain types of radiofrequency, such as high frequency RF, should not be used on fillers, as temperature may increase disproportionately inside the filler, potentially causing damage…
Can cavitation or radiofrequency make cellulite and skin firmness worse?
Properly applied, deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency, can NOT make skin worse - it will always lead to skin tightening and cellulite reduction (and the same applies to properly applied strong, deep-acting ultrasound cavitation). After 13,000+ sessions we have never seen a single client’s skin get worse. This type of radiofrequency (and/or ultrasound cavitation) is super-safe, if applied professionally by an experienced, well-trained, well-educated therapist (we have a constant 99.5%+ safety rate at our clinic in the last 14+ years). Properly applied, deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency works by stimulating cellulite fat release and the synthesis of functional collagen tissue and…
Can you do too much radiofrequency?
Too much radiofrequency treatment can refer to three things: too strong treatment; treatment taken too often; too many sessions. High intensity, deep-acting radiofrequency is the strongest SAFE skin tightening and cellulite removal treatment available today, and aims to naturally stimulate collagen synthesis, collagen contraction, lipolysis and circulation with intensive - but never excessive - deep heat. With such radiofrequency all you feel during treatment is deep heat in your hypodermis and dermis, i.e. the deeper skin layers…
How often can you do radio frequency skin tightening on stomach, face or thighs?
With any effective body treatment, it is good to leave one, two or more days between sessions in order to allow for the skin to recover. So with a deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency treatment, you must leave at least 2-3 days between sessions. With ineffective, low power RF treatments, you can leave less time between sessions (as little…
Does radio frequency melt fat? Hype vs facts.
I don’t know where this “fat melting” idea came from, but those who invented this phrase a few decades ago, should have known that fat is already liquid in fat cells. In fact, scientists call the lipid content in fat cells “the adipocyte lipid droplet”. So next time you visit a clinic where they claim to melt your fat…
Can I shower/bath after RF or cavitation treatment?
Cavitation treatments are generally very safe and have a low rate of adverse reactions that would potentially prevent you from having a bath or shower. Usually the only problem experienced after cavitation treatments is mild redness / skin sensitivity, which dissipates within a few minutes or hours. As long as skin does not look/feel irritated, then you can have a normal - but not too…
