What is RF Skin
Tightening?
Radio Frequency (RF) Skin Tightening is a non-surgical treatment to tighten the skin which involves using energy waves to heat the deep layer of the skin (the dermis) to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, resulting in smoother, firmer, and younger-looking skin.
Radio Frequency Skin Tightening is a great option for those who want to firm loose skin on their face or body, or those looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
As one of the most popular non-invasive treatments we offer, RF Body Skin Tightening is a safe and cost-effective treatment that helps to tighten the skin and improve its overall appearance. RF Body Skin Tightening can be used to treat a variety of areas, including the face, neck, thighs and abdomen. The treatment is safe for most people and has little to no downtime. Results from RF Body Skin Tightening are visible within a few weeks and continue to improve over time.

Contraindications
RF Skin Tightening is generally well-tolerated by most individuals. However, it may not be the right fit for everyone. If any of the following apply to you, it’s best to check in with one of our therapists before moving forward:
- You have metal implants, such as bone pins or a pacemaker.
- You have inflamed, irritated or allergic skin in the treatment area.
- You’re under 18 years old. During puberty, the body is still going through hormonal changes and natural shifts in fat distribution, which may affect your skin’s response to treatment and how results develop over time.
- You have swollen or infected lymph nodes.
- You have an active infection or a compromised immune system.
- You have liver, kidney or heart problems.
- You’re pregnant or breastfeeding.
Not Sure if You’re a Good Candidate?
Our experienced therapists will walk you through a personalised consultation before your treatment. We’ll discuss your health history, assess the treatment area and answer any questions you may have — all to make sure RF Skin Tightening is a safe and suitable option for your goals. If it’s not the right fit, we’ll suggest alternative treatments that may better align with your goals and needs.
Before and Aftercare Guidelines for RF Skin Tightening
Follow these steps to help ensure your treatment and recovery go smoothly.
Before Your Appointment:
- Avoid any skin peels or laser treatments on the area for at least two weeks before your appointment.
- If you’ve experienced cold sores in the past, let your therapist know ahead of time so we can take the right precautions.
- On the day of your treatment, make sure the area is clean and free of makeup, moisturisers or skincare products.
- Stay well hydrated before and after the treatment.
After Your Treatment:
- Be gentle with the treated area. You can wash your face and follow your usual skincare routine, but avoid rubbing or scrubbing.
- Avoid picking, pulling or scratching the treated area, as this can increase the likelihood of scarring, infection or changes in skin pigmentation.
- Avoid laser treatments, chemical peels, waxing, depilatory creams or microdermabrasion for at least 3 to 4 weeks.
- Wait 7 days before using active products such as Retin-A, glycolic acids or exfoliating tools like facial brushes.
- You may notice mild redness, warmth, tenderness or swelling in the treated area. This is normal and should settle within a few days to a week.
- To help reduce swelling, keep your head slightly elevated when sleeping during the first 24 to 48 hours.
- If you’ve been prescribed antiviral medication, make sure to complete the full course.
Potential Side Effects and Risks
Like any skin tightening or fat reduction treatment, side effects can occur, though they’re typically mild and temporary. The most common risk is overexposure, which may lead to a slight burn if the skin is overly sensitive or improperly treated.
Other reactions can include:
- Redness
- Mild pain or discomfort
- Temporary changes in skin tone
- Slight skin sensitivity
During your initial consultation, your therapist will walk you through all potential risks and side effects, assess your skin and adjust the treatment settings to suit your needs. You’ll also receive tailored aftercare advice to help minimise any reaction and support recovery.
