Skin Tightening London – Revolutionary RF Treatment

January 2019 | Reading time: 3 minutes

VIVO Body Studio London now offers Skin Tightening treatments for your face and body, leaving you with skin that looks and feels brand new!

A natural sign of the ageing process is the emergence of wrinkles and fine lines in the skin. Our skin gets thinner and drier with age, losing its elasticity. Furthermore, ultraviolet rays from the sun breaks down the skin’s elastin and collagen fibres, causing it to become less and less flexible.

VIVO Body Studio London has introduced Radio Frequency Skin Tightening as a solution to your problems. This is a non-invasive and safe procedure that has been clinically proven to reduce the signs of ageing. The treatment leaves clients with fresher, younger and healthier skin without the need for surgery.

How does Skin Tightening work?

Our Skin Tightening treatments at VIVO Body Studio London use radio frequency technology. An applicator is placed on the appropriate area, releasing radio frequency waves into the skin. This produces heat of roughly 40 degrees Celsius, which works to stimulate the collagen fibres in the skin. As a result of this, the collagen contracts and regrows, tightening the skin of the treated area. Furthermore, Radio Frequency Skin Tightening has the bonus of reducing fat at the same time. It is important to note that this treatment is most effective for skin tightening, so if you are looking for a fat loss procedure, consider our Ultrasound Cavitation or Radio Frequency Fat-Melting treatments instead!

You have the option of Facial Skin Tightening or Body Skin Tightening. The latter can treat areas such as the arms and abdomen. Sessions last approximately 40 minutes, though this may vary depending on the treated areas. At VIVO Body Studio London, we use advanced technology so that the procedure is comfortable and relaxing.

Results

The heat created by the radio frequency waves evokes immediate contraction and thickening of collagen in the skin, meaning that a lot of clients see results straight after the treatment. These continue to develop in the weeks following the Skin Tightening procedure. You may see mild redness in the treated area directly after the procedure. However, this is perfectly normal and typically fades within a few days.

Before going ahead with Radio Frequency Skin Tightening, we invite you to come to VIVO Body Studio London for a consultation. This allows our therapists to assess your circumstances and advise you on the number of treatments needed to reach your desired results. The majority of our patients benefit from one treatment. Yet everyone is different, and some clients may need top-up treatments to ensure the procedure has the maximum effect.

Furthermore, during the consultation, you will be given aftercare advice. At VIVO Body Studio London we offer C-TOX aftercare serum to boost the growth of collagen after the treatment. This helps you to get the best results possible.
