Radiofrequency delivers a specific frequency of energy and controlled power designed to create heat within the skin. It is not light-based (like a Laser or IPL) and therefore allows us to treat a broader range of skin types and areas.
Depending on the applicator used, the intensity, treatment results and concerns we treat can vary.
Using the Venus Viva MD device, we have two treatment options for your skin.
Start with a consultation! If you are an existing client of ours, no doubt we’ll be talking to you about this option as part of your ongoing plan.
The Diamond Polar treatment works by gently heating the deeper layers of the skin using radiofrequency energy. This device uses what’s called Multi-Polar Radio Frequency and Pulsed Electro Magnetic Fields (PEMF) to produce uniform heat under the skin’s surface. The technology is superior to many other bi-polar RF systems and the addition of PEMF results in better outcomes through increased fibroblast proliferation (the factory workers that contribute to our collagen production).
This process helps to naturally increase collagen and elastin fibers, resulting in smoother, firmer skin with lines softening over time. You see an immediate lift and tone from this session, making it perfect as a pre-event treatment particularly if your concerns are loss of elasticity of the jowls and neck, sagging, lack of tone and firmness to the skin.
Long term results are seen with a series of treatments. Best performed in 6 sessions performed weekly, and depending on the person maintenance sessions can be done monthly or as you please.
The treatment feels like a warm facial massage and has no downtime. It can be added onto Nanofractional RF as a booster, or any of our other facial services – it truly is just the best enhancement when you need a (literal) pick me up!
Includes a gentle exfoliation with your Diamond Polar treatment and finishing creams.
If you’re craving more of a facial experience or any of our other clinical skin treatments, you can also add on diamond polar as an enhancement to any face treatment for only $95.
The perfect pre-event treatment.
Includes deep cleanse and exfoliation, Diamond Polar treatment, booster serums, mask (a little massage while the mask works its magic) and finishing creams.
Now here’s the good stuff. Nanofractional RF Resurfacing – what does this mean?
This treatment work with tiny pins that safely deliver heat (via NanoFractional Radio Frequency) through the skin’s surface. The pins create tiny columns of controlled thermal injury, we call them ‘tiny micro-dermal wounds’, which the body naturally heals on its own. Through the healing process, our skin activates growth factors, fibroblasts (the cells responsible for collagen and elastin production), we have contraction of fibres giving us an improved, smoothed appearance of the skin.
Since the wounds are so small, the treatment is much more comfortable than traditional CO2 lasers, which are currently rising in popularity but have significant risk.
The columns of thermal injury we create with Nanofractional RF encourages our skin to rapidly turnover, taking with it superficial pigmented lesions and uneven texture, to reveal smoother, firmer skin.
How does it feel?
It doesn’t tickle! Prickling and heat sensation, it takes approximately 20-25 minutes to treat the full face and neck. We recommend you apply topical numbing at home prior to your appointment.
What will it feel like after?
Immediately: Hot and Red
Day 1-2: Redness, some mild swelling (depending on how much of the upper and lower eye we treat)
Day 3-4: Mild redness if any, bronzed appearance and sandpaper texture
Day 5-6: Microcrusting / shedding
Make-Up can usually be applied after 24 hours depending on the treatment intensity.
We primarily treat the face and neck with this device, though body areas such as the abdomen, back, chest and stretchmarks can also be addressed.
Treatment is priced per session at $495 for the face and neck (regardless of whether the neck is included). The eye area is always treated as part of a full-face session.
ANNOUNCED June 26 and will be valid until July 31
