Monopolar Radio Frequency (RF) Skin Tightening
Monopolar Radio Frequency (RF) is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses controlled radio frequency energy to heat the deeper layers of the skin. This stimulates the body’s natural collagen and elastin production, helping to improve skin firmness, elasticity, and overall skin quality without surgery or downtime.
As collagen remodels over the weeks following treatment, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more youthful in appearance. Monopolar RF is suitable for patients experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity and can be used on several areas of the face and neck.
Monopolar RF – Eyes
The delicate eye area is often one of the first places to show signs of ageing. Monopolar RF gently heats the deeper tissues around the eyes to stimulate collagen production, helping to tighten and firm the skin while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
