SKIN TIGHTENING WITH TRI-POLAR RADIO FREQUENCY​
on 12th session - client still has 90 days of the skin getting tighter and more plump, as it takes time for collagen and elastin fibers to build!
same client as before - but looks 20 years younger! It looks like show got fillers but this was strictly the tripolar rf!

**FDA Approved For Non-Surgical Face-Lifts!**
At nu glo medi-spa, we offer the most advanced form of radio frequency or RF skin tightening treatment available.
We use Tri-polar RF which is also fractional so the energy is dispersed and distributed more evenly.
​
Tri-polar Fractional RF Skin Tightening is a non-ablative treatment which means that it doesn’t damage outer layers of skin (the epidermis) but it does however cause a specific type of micro trauma to the lower dermal layers of the skin which stimulates elastin and collagen production.
RF or Radio frequency electromagnetic energy is safe, non-invasive and a pain-free way to tighten skin that may have lost some of it’s elasticity around the forehead, eyes, cheeks, jaw line, mouth and under the chin and neck. It is also an effective way to tighten skin on the body such as post birth tummy, or where someone has lost a few pounds in weight.
Radio Frequency or RF is an excellent alternative to surgery in some cases!
RF skin tightening treatment offers an easy, comfortable, and non surgical way to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin, enlarged pore size and generally improve the tone and texture of the skin. Radio frequency is great for those who are looking for subtle improvements but not yet ready for a surgical face-lift or want to avoid surgery completely.
​
What is RF or radio frequency?
Radio frequency or RF skin tightening treatment is an innovative therapy that uses radio frequency electromagnetic waves (energy waves in the range of about 3 KHz to 300 GHz) to stimulate collagen development deep within the dermal layers of the skin. Radio frequency re-structures and contracts existing collagen and stimulates fresh collagen production to give noticeable yet natural results. Clients benefit from a healthier, smoother and more youthful looking skin.
​​
​The use of electrical currents and other energy wave forms for medical purposes has been documented for over 100 years. Technology has come a long way in that time, especially in recent years though the basic principles are the same. Non ablative radio frequency energy is the newest addition to the treatment options available for skin tightening, cellulite and fat reduction. It is now possible to deliver RF energy to the deep dermal and sub-dermal layers of the skin, whilst protecting the epidermis (outer layer of the skin). Heating the dermal and sub dermal layers of the skin causes microscopic changes to the tissues and collagen contraction, with subsequent collagen re-modelling over the months that follow.
The unique combination of processes involved in RF skin tightening provides both an immediate uplifting effect,
followed by further longer term skin tightening, restructuring and rejuvenating benefits.
Radio frequency also gives deep, controlled heating of the fatty layers under the skin, which means that superficial fatty deposits can be broken down and drained through the lymphatic system, reducing the appearance of cellulite.

Types of Radio Frequency treatments
Mono-polar RF (also called Uni-polar): This refers to the treatment device having one electrode or pole. It works on the uppermost layers of the skin.
Bi-polar: Refers to a treatment device that has two electrodes or poles. This penetrates to deeper levels of the skin.
Tri-Polar: Combination of mono and bipolar. Works on both upper layers and deeper layers of the skin
Tri-polar combines the effects of both mono and bi-polar radio frequency in a single treatment, which produces better pain free results. By delivering RF energy deep into dermal tissues, the heating action causes deep collagen structures within the skin to immediately tighten. Over time, new collagen is produced by the body to further tighten the skin.
​
Is radio frequency RF skin tightening safe?
Radio frequency has a proven track record and has been shown to be safe. It has been used in neurosurgery, dermatology, cardiology, and ENT for more than 70 years! The treatment is relaxing and pain-free.
​
How many treatments will I need?​
It may be recommended to have a session of radio frequency skin tightening twice weekly with an average of 6 – 12 sessions in a treatment program, or a session once every 7-10 days, with an average of 8 sessions in a program. But this will all depend on the individual’s needs.
​
Can anyone have radio frequency RF skin tightening treatments?
Usually yes, though there are some contraindications. It cannot be used in patients with pacemakers, metal plates or pins in the treatment area, severe heart disease, connective tissue diseases, pregnancy or breastfeeding women.
