What is 5G RF?
The Illumia 5G RF is a highly effective treatment designed to address various skin concerns, including wrinkles, fine lines, enlarged pores, and loss of volume in sensitive areas such as the eyes, forehead, and other parts of the face and body.
This procedure utilises radio frequency technology to gently heat the collagen-rich layers of the skin, stimulating the production of new collagen and causing existing collagen to contract. The result is a rejuvenated, youthful complexion.
How does illumia 5G RF work?
The Illumia 5G RF treatment offers versatility by harnessing two distinct wavelengths. The first wavelength targets the superficial layers, tightening the face, reducing fine lines, and lifting eyelids and neck. The second wavelength operates at a deeper level, contouring and lifting areas like the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks.
Skin Ageing
Collagen production slows down with age and we lose about 1% of collagen every year. Loss of collagen creates signs of facial ageing such as wrinkles, open pores, skin laxity, and uneven skin tone. RF energy has been clinically proven to stimulate your body’s natural mechanisms to increase these anti-ageing components, reviving the skin and restoring its smooth contours.
