Radio Frequency Facial, Does it work?
Radio Frequency Facials are an incredible way of breathing new life into your skin.
Here comes the Science… I’ll try to keep it brief!
When we hit about 40 our oestrogen levels start to decline. One of the roles Oestrogen plays in our body is the control of an enzyme called Collagenase.
Imagine this little guy is the pair of scissors our skin uses to cut away old, broken or damaged Collagen and Elastin. Effectively the same as the monthly trim our hair needs to prevent split ends. This is Colleganase.
However Colleganase has its mind set on world domination and as our Oestrogen levels decrease our Colleganase gets out of control, clipping, trimming and generally destroying both the old collagen and the healthy!
This is one of the reasons HRT has such benefits for your skin, but I digress.
So we can’t stop the colleganase running wild, so what we need is for our fibroblast cells to work harder to create more Collagen and Elastin to counteract the effect of this wayward enzyme.
Enter Radio Frequency Facials…
The gentle but insistent heat imparted by the RF Head heats the basal layers of your skin to between 41 and 42 degrees. This temperature increase of 5/6 degrees is enough to stimulate your extremely intelligent skin’s healing response. And how does skin heal itself? COLLAGEN.
Your extremely intelligent skin activates your own fibroblast cells, fibroblast cells CREATE Collagen and Elastin. This results in the lower layers of your skin being flooded with Collagen and Elastin instantly firming, plumping and rejuvenating the appearance of your skin.
INSTANT ANTI-AGEING. What’s even better is once your fibroblast cells have been stimulated they continue creating more and more collagen and elastin fibres for the next three months
So how often should I have Radio Frequency Facials? The simple answer is as often as you can after the age of 40! Whilst they don’t need a course of treatments like Lifting Facials do to get you started, a quick cluster of one per week for 3/4 weeks will give your skin a really satisfying boost. I often combine Radio Frequency skin tightening with Caci Micro-Current Lifting for the ultimate anti-ageing boost!
