Body Contouring and Sculpting - Radio Frequency (RF)

RF energy heats the skin in a controlled way to remodel deep collagen, to improve the appearance of wrinkles, and resurface the skin in a gentle fractional manner, to improve skin tone and texture, for a more radiant appearance.

Radio frequency technology offers a non-invasive, pain-free body treatment to help reduce the appearance of cellulite, firm skin, boost collagen production and tackle any pesky fatty deposits that won’t budge with exercise.

It’s a pretty versatile treatment as it can also help reduce flabby skin, tighten bingo wings, contour and tighten a post pregnancy tummy, reduce fine lines and wrinkles (on the face and body), reduce saddle bags and even lift and tighten your bum.

RADIO 4 Lift-SHAPE™ is the first device to exploit the enormous potential and many advantages of Dynamic and Fractional Quadripolar Radio Frequency. The action of LIFT-SHAPE ™’ is due to the penetration of an electromagnetic wave, focused on the tissue of interest, in the treatment area. This assures optimal results with extremely reduced energy. It is a device capable of reaching all skin layers, from the epidermis to the dermis and deep hypodermis.

Yes, commonly Radio 4 RF treatments are used in conjunction with Icoone treatments. This amplifies treatment results as we are able to treat the area using radio frequency, mechanical manipulation and laser technology.

RF facial treatments are also commonly paired with our LED infrared or red light treatment which provides a further cellular regeneration.

Ask your skin specialist what other treatments this can be used with. Note that other treatments may be used on the same day or a few days after treatment.

• Do not expose the treated area to sunlight for the first week after treatment.
• Do not use harsh detergents, degreasers, exfoliating or alcohol ingredients on treated area after treatment.
• When doing fractional RF, makeup can be applied 2 -3 days after treatment.
• Sunscreen must be applied after 2 days, daily at all times to protect the skin.
• It is highly recommended to follow the product aftercare especially when treating the face, and to increase water intake during the first week post treatment.

• Redness post treatment can be present for a few days after using fractional RF.
• Blisters, minor burns/scabs that subside in a few days.
• Changes in pigmentation during the inflammatory stage for the first few days, it is important to ensure sunscreen is used vigilantly to ensure successful healing.

Yes Please! We do recommend combining the treatment with balanced nutrition and exercise. This will help ‘burn’ the fat released during each treatment.

It is a good idea to drink plenty of water after each treatment. Due to the heat generated during the treatment, drinking water does help to eliminate the metabolic by-products generated by the treatment from the body.

Note: When seeking professional advice when starting a new exercise and diet regime, please contact one of our Doctors or Dietitian who can help you in these areas.
