Sublative RF

Sublative Radio Frequency (RF) enables you to achieve a more youthful appearance. The RF energy is precisely directed into the skin in the form of a matrix. Healthy skin around the treated area accelerates the healing process of the skin. Post-treatment, new collagen and healthy skin cells are produced. Mild to moderate wrinkles and superficial imperfections of your skin are reduced. It can also improve textural irregularities from acne scarring. This treatment is safe and effective for most skin types.

Typical treatment protocol is three treatments, four to six weeks apart. The total number of required treatment sessions depends on your skin’s condition. Sublative RF can be used on the face, neck, and chest area.

During treatment patients may experience a warm, prickly sensation as the energy enters their skin. A pink or red sunburn appearance is also common. Topical anesthetic ointments and cooling are used to reduce any unpleasant feelings during treatment.
