Yes, Radio-Frequency is recommended for skin tightening on body areas, including the abdomen, buttocks, upper arms and thighs. Click here for more information.

This treatment is not suitable for patients with: Pacemaker or bio-medical implants, auto-immune diseases, pregnancy, bleeding abnormalities, or if taking blood-thinning medication. A doctor's note is required for conditions including thyroid, heart, liver, kidney disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. A medical form will be generated when you book for this treatment for you to complete.

You may experience mild heat and slight redness in the treated area, though this usually settles relatively quickly.    Immediately after treatment Skin may feel warm, tight, or mildly sensitive for up to 24–48 hours Mild redness is normal and should settle within a few hours to 2 days Slight swelling or pinpoint redness can occur in some clients   If redness, swollen or sensitivity occurs Apply a cool (not ice-cold) compress for short intervals regularly if needed Use a gentle, bland moisturiser (e.g. fragrance-free, non-active formula) ideally aloe vera, kept in the fridge so that it is cool as it will reduce inflammation. Do not rub, scrub, or massage the treated area   Skincare restrictions (for 3–7 days or until skin is fully calm) Avoid retinol/retinoids Avoid AHAs/BHAs (glycolic, salicylic, lactic acids) Avoid vitamin C serums if stinging occurs Avoid exfoliation (manual or chemical) Avoid facial devices (cleansing brushes, LED unless advised)   Makeup Avoid makeup for at least 24 hours If skin is irritated, wait until fully settled before applying makeup Use clean brushes/sponges when resuming makeup   Heat & activity restrictions (at least 48 hours) Avoid saunas, steam rooms, hot baths, hot showers and hot yoga Avoid strenuous exercise if skin is still red or hot   Sun protection (essential) Apply SPF 30–50 daily once skin is comfortable Reapply if outdoors Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 1 week post-treatment   Hydration & healing support Keep skin well hydrated with a gentle moisturiser (vitamin E moisturiser can aid healing) Drink plenty of water to support recovery Do not pick or scratch the skin   Scabs In the unlikely event that the skin develops a scab, do not scratch. Even if scabs can be itchy, control the urge to scratch them and refrain from picking. Scabs are indicators that the skin beneath isn’t fully healed. If you keep on trying to remove them, the newly forming cells will be exposed, which may lead to scarring. If itching persists, gently apply aloe Vera on the scabs. Allow them to fall off naturally.   When to contact the clinic / seek advice Persistent redness lasting more than 72 hours Blistering, crusting, or broken skin Increasing pain, swelling, or heat in the area Signs of infection (pus, yellow discharge, spreading redness) Any unexpected or worsening reaction   Preparation for next visit Remove your make-up and jewellery before your appointment. Eye make-up may remain. Please inform your practitioner before your next appointment if you have any health or medication changes, as this may preclude you from treatment. Contact details are at the bottom of the page.

We recommend a course of 8 or more. It should be noted that each person will react slightly differently to the treatment, whilst some may reach their desired outcome after 8 treatments, others may require a course of 10 treatments or more. ​ Treatments can be spaced 2-4 weeks apart. Or if you are having with microneedling, every 4 weeks. A maintenance treatment twice a year will provide optimum results. ​

Only if the double chin has loose, slack skin (usually following weight loss). But if the double chin is fat then we suggest our fat-dissolving injections click here.

Yes, you can alternate with skin boosters to further improve the quality and hydration of your skin. Click here for Skin Boosters. ​

Yes! The addition of microneedling combined with RF can give you dramatically better results. The combination of the two therapies helps further stimulate collagen production, giving your skin a healthier, firmer, rejuvenated appearance. Our Heat-Wave treatment is heavily discounted when combined with microneedling. The microneedling part of the procedure creates numerous minuscule pinpricks in the skin. These pinpricks serve as microscopic channels for the flow of radiofrequency energy, which is applied subsequently. As a result, not only the skin’s natural healing responses initiated, but collagen production is stimulated to help give you smoother, tighter, younger-looking skin. An added advantage of the microneedling plus RF combination is that it is less aggressive than deep chemical peels and laser skin resurfacing. This means you can achieve noticeable improvements in the appearance of your skin with a shorter recovery time, usually less than 3 days. Most clients experience only minor redness and dryness after microneedling plus RF and can return to work immediately after the treatment. It is also a great choice for improving scars, as well as skin laxity/sagging skin You will require multiple sessions of RF and microneedling for optimum results. Treatments are spaced out 4 weekly.

Double cleanse FillMED gentle chemical Peel lowering skin PH to 3 or 1.5 Suitable skin booster/Polynucleotide/exosome is applied and microneedled with our medical-grade device. Radio-Frequency is performed immediately after, whilst skin micro-channels are still active. Cooling FillMED Youth mask is applied, which contains Hyaluronic Acid, Collagen & Aloe Vera. Ice globes are massaged over the area, cooling the skin, aiding lymphatic drainage, reducing puffiness, firming and tightening the skin

Invisible radio wave energy is passed harmlessly and painlessly through the skin and gradually heats up the tissue and the extracellular matrix where the collagen fibres are embedded. Heating in the deeper dermis, to a constant 38°- 45°, stimulates fibroblast action (fibroblasts are the connective tissue cells that produce collagen and elastin). In turn, this increases the synthesis of new collagen production and elastin remodelling. Local heating causes an immediate contraction of collagen fibres, and at the same time increases the metabolism of the fibroblasts, thereby accelerating the production of new collagen and elastin fibres. This thermal trauma, which occurs in 5-30% of the collagen fibres, causes an immediate contraction of the fibres. The contraction results in the production of new collagen. The concentration of collagen fibres and the regeneration of the collagen and elastin fibres become thickened and strengthened as new collagen is produced, helping to push out fine lines and wrinkles. The skin becomes firmer, and the contours are lifted. The diameter of the collagen fibres in the treated area is increased, the spaces between the fibres are visibly reduced under the microscope, helping to plump the skin. The Tri-polar radio frequency alternates at high and low-frequency currents. This heats the deeper skin tissues whilst being very comfortable thanks to our Medical MHRA machine. A course of treatments is needed for results.

Radio-frequency treatments are most effective for skin that is mildly loose or lax, where collagen stimulation can create visible tightening and firmness. It’s important to have realistic expectations—if the skin has significantly lost its elasticity, surgical options may provide a more effective result. For patients looking to gently lift, restore volume, and improve overall skin quality in an ageing face, we often recommend bio-stimulators as a more suitable alternative with results lasting up to 2 years.

Yes—alternating radio frequency (RF) with HIFU treatments can be beneficial, and it’s actually a common strategy in aesthetic skin treatments. The reason comes down to how each technology works at different depths and in different ways. 🔬 How they differ HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) Targets deep layers of the skin (including the SMAS layer—the same layer tightened in facelifts) Works by creating focused thermal (heat points) deep under the skin Stimulates collagen production and lifting over time Radio Frequency (RF) Works more superficially (mid to upper dermis) Uses bulk heating rather than focused heat Improves skin texture, firmness, and fine lines 🔄 Why alternating them works well Layered treatment approach HIFU tightens from deep below RF improves the surface and mid-layers → Together, they treat the full thickness of the skin Collagen stimulation synergy Both stimulate collagen, but through different mechanisms Alternating can lead to more sustained and comprehensive results Recovery balance HIFU is typically done less often (e.g., every 3–6 months) RF can be done more frequently (weekly/monthly depending on type) → RF helps maintain and enhance results between HIFU sessions Different aesthetic goals HIFU = lifting and contouring RF = smoothing and tightening → Alternating helps avoid over-treating one aspect while neglecting another Alternating RF with HIFU is effective because it targets different skin depths and mechanisms, giving a more complete rejuvenation than either treatment alone.
