Radiofrequency Treatment for Skin Tightening and Cellulite
UCosmetic uses the Apollo Tripollar radiofrequency (RF) device for skin tightening, cellulite reduction and facial/body contouring. RF therapy is a gradual process to tighten loose skin and contour tissue around the face, neck, chest, tummy and elsewhere and to decrease cellulite on the thighs, buttocks, arms and tummy.
Newer radiofrequency machines such as the Tripollar focus the energy right where it is needed and thus requires lower energy to heat the skin, dermis and subcutaneous tissue improving treatment outcomes without discomfort. Fewer treatments may be required with Tripollar than with other RF technology. In general selected layers of skin and tissue are heated to above 40o C to induce remodeling of tissue structure resulting in skin tightening, cellulite reduction or body contouring. Improvement can continue for four to six months after completion of treatments as the collagen and elastin renews.
RF therapy is complimented by a proper skincare regimen, a qood quality SPF product and by maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, hydration, and maintaining a healthy weight.
For best results, a series of 6-8 treatments or more is recommended.
Maintenance treatments every 3-12 months will keep you looking great!
