Radiofrequency
Radiofrequency uses controlled heating to transfer energy to the skins deeper layers, stimulating and re-generating sub-dermal collagen and elastin. A big favorite with many celebrities, this treatment is extremely popular for tightening sagging skin.
Radiofrequency can be used to treat the jawline, cheek, neck, eyes and the area around the mouth. Its ability to give an instant lift and tightening to the skin has made it a very popular pre-event or pre-party treatment with patients and celebrities alike. The area of skin begin treated is covered in a special gel to allow the transfer of energy from the radio frequency device to the skins deeper layers. Many patients enjoy this treatments relaxing effect, likening it to a warm facial or hot stone massage as the radiofrequency device is rotated gently on the skin.
This is one of several treatment techniques that The Glasshouse owner and aesthetic director Alison Telfer teaches to aesthetic practitioners and students, so our experience and expertise in delivering this treatment is second-to-none.
