Are Radio Frequency (RF) Treatments Safe?

New to radio frequency (RF) treatments? Take a look at our previous blog that will explain what RF is and how it's used to achieve a younger look!  

As explained in our previous blog, RF heats up the underlying facial tissues in a way to produce more collagen and elastin. You might ask - is this safe? Will I receive burns? The short answer is no. Cosmetic RF is different from the device frequencies you might be familiar with your everyday life. While your phone, tablet, or microwave also use sound waves, cosmetic RF is highly regulated. FDA approved devices allow for treatments to take place without burns or discomfort. There is no downtime after treatments. Side effects are minimal and the most common feeling patients usually report is a tingling sensation that is short-lived and not permanent. Since RF is so safe, it is perfectly fine to do multiple sessions with serial sessions recommended to produce the best results. The process just involves us hold a probe to your skin that will deliver the RF therapy - it's that easy! Within several minutes you will up and about with your normal day.
