What is Radio Frequency?

During a Collagen Lift treatment, a ceramic wand is used in circles across the skin to gently heat the area to 40 degrees. This temperature stimulates your body’s natural healing response without actually causing any damage. Radio Frequency works with your body, unlike other treatments that cut away, or inject chemicals into it. So – how does it benefit the skin?

How Does Radio Frequency Benefit the Skin?

New Collagen

The SkinBase Collagen Lift treatment produces such fantastic results for clients as it increases collagen production within the skin. Collagen degeneration is a key reason that signs of ageing appear on the skin. As we age, collagen levels decline. Radio frequency works at the deepest layers to combat this, flooding the target area with new collagen. This plumps and smooths the target area, improving the appearance of sagging, fine lines and wrinkles.

Tighten Elastin

Elastin is another structural fibre within the skin that radio frequency has a positive impact on. Elastin is different to collagen as the problem is not a lack of elastin. The body doesn’t tend to produce more elastin, but elastin changes as we age. Elastin fibres can become slack and fall out of line over time. Radio Frequency tightens the fibres, helping the skin to spring back and restoring tautness, contour and tone.

Hyaluronic Acid 

Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the body that helps the skin to stretch, retain moisture and stay cushioned. Over time, as with collagen, levels of hyaluronic acid produced by the body decreases. As a result, the skin loses volume and becomes dryer, making fine lines and wrinkles more likely to appear. As the radio frequency energy heats the skin, hyaluronic acid production is boosted, help to minimise signs of ageing.

Reduce cellulite and fat

Radio Frequency can significantly help to reduce the appearance of cellulite. The heat and motions from the ceramic wand helps to stimulate the lymphatic and circulatory systems. As a result, fatty deposits drain away, leaving behind smoother skin and a slimmer appearance. This makes Radio Frequency the perfect companion treatment for lifestyle changes such as a regular exercise regime and a healthy diet!

Rebecca Willshee Nail and Beauty Specialist

Testimonial: “JC was so low, suicidal at points. Sore, red, angry, his skin was awful, we had tried everything and doctors you name it. We reached out to Becky, who was wonderful. My son was quiet and withdrawn, lacked confidence and self esteem, and locked himself away from the world. Becky booked us in for a consultation to discuss different options of treatments and we decided the new hydro treatment would be the best option. We started the course and JC was nervous but Becky was great with him talking him through everything, step by step! As we went each time JC’s skin got better and better, but also the difference in him was huge, he was gaining confidence, shoulders back, head held high. We have watched his skin change from this red, aggressive, angry skin that was sore, acne was debilitating to him but now he is confident, holds his head up high and has even got his first job! We are so proud. When we met Becky I felt confident she would help us get his skin better and back on track but what has actually happened is skin looks amazing but to see our son gain confidence has been the biggest win! Teens often get pushed aside, put on string meds and told “it’s just your age” but this isn’t what they want to hear, but The SkinBase treatments Becky has done has changed his life! We cannot thank you enough Becky! JC is continuing with the treatments as it still gets the odd breakouts but the scarring is still improving week in week out. The hydro Facial is just amazing and we cannot recommend it enough and of course Becky and her passion for skin and helping people is wonderful!”
