How it works
Radiofrequency is a device for mild laxity. It cannot replace surgery for significant loose skin, and we will say so at the consultation rather than sell a series that will not get you where you want to be. It is also offered for the look of cellulite; the change there is modest.
Who does it
Our nurse practitioner or a technician trained on the device, under our medical director's supervision.
Time and sessions
Each session: 45-60 minutes per area.
Usually three to four sessions, a month apart. Changes are gradual and modest, and they differ from person to person.
Downtime
Warm, pink skin for a few hours.
Common side effects
- Warmth and redness for a few hours
- Rare: a small burn or a tender spot
Who should wait or skip it
- You have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device
- You are pregnant
- You have metal implants in the area
Alternatives
- Strength training, which changes how the area looks more than most people expect
- A surgical consultation for significant loose skin, which no device replaces
Per area, per session. Larger areas such as the abdomen count as one area.
Results vary from person to person, and nothing on this page is a promise of a particular result.
