Worried that your skin is getting loose? Don’t worry – our Skin Tightening procedure at VIVO Body Studio Cardiff is the answer to your problems!
Loose skin is a natural sign of ageing that leads to the development of lines and wrinkles. This occurs all over the body, although we tend to notice it more on the face. Our Skin Tightening procedure at VIVO Body Studio Cardiff combats these signs of ageing by reactivating the collagen in the skin that grows weaker as we get older.
How does Skin Tightening work?
Collagen in the skin is encouraged to repair and regrow by using radio frequency. These radio frequency waves are emitted into the skin and produce heat that works to give energy to the collagen fibres. The heat will reach around 40° Celsius – many patients compare this element to a massage and have found the treatment incredibly relaxing. During the treatment, our practitioners will move the applicator in a circular motion around the appropriate areas so that as much collagen as possible is targeted by the radio frequency. Skin Tightening is suitable for both the face and the body, in areas such as the arms and abdomen.
The majority of our clients benefit from only one session of Skin Tightening at VIVO Body Studio Cardiff. However, it is crucial to bear in mind that results vary from person to person. Depending on your situation, and the areas targeted, you may need a course of treatments to meet your desired results. Many patients begin to see results straight after the treatment due to the rapid thickening of collagen fibres. These will continue to improve in the weeks following the procedure. You may experience mild redness in the area immediately after the procedure but this is perfectly normal, and typically fades within a few days.
Before you undergo Radio Frequency Skin Tightening, we invite you to come to VIVO Body Studio Cardiff for a face-to-face consultation. We believe that clients should have all of their questions answered and know that the treatment is right for them before giving consent. Our therapists will also give you detailed aftercare instructions to help you achieve the best results. At VIVO Body Studio Cardiff, we offer C-TOX aftercare serum which further stimulates the collagen following the procedure. You will be left with younger and healthier looking skin in no time!
Call us on 0333 012 4956 to ask any questions you have and to book your appointment today!
