How Much Does Radio Frequency Skin Tightening Cost?

What is radio frequency skin tightening?

Radio frequency (RF) skin tightening is a non-surgical treatment that uses controlled radio frequency energy to heat tissue beneath the skin's surface.

The aim is to encourage collagen remodelling and gradually improve the appearance of skin firmness. Results vary depending on your skin, the treatment area and the device used.

What affects the cost of RF skin tightening?

Prices can vary between clinics because of several factors, including the treatment area, equipment, session length, practitioner experience and whether you book individual appointments or a course.

Rather than comparing prices alone, ask what your appointment includes and whether the proposed treatment is suitable for your goals.

How many sessions will I need?

Some people choose an individual session, while others benefit from a planned series. The number of appointments depends on the treatment area, your starting point, the equipment and your desired outcome.

Olive offers a course of eight sessions, but that doesn't mean everyone needs eight. Your therapist can discuss an appropriate plan following an assessment.

Can RF be used on the face and body?

RF technology is used in different treatments for facial and body concerns, although the settings, devices and suitability can vary. A consultation helps establish which areas can be treated safely using the equipment available at your clinic.

When will I see results?

Some people notice a temporary feeling of tightness after treatment. More gradual changes, where they occur, may develop over subsequent weeks as the skin responds.

RF skin tightening cannot reproduce the results of surgery, and no particular degree of improvement can be guaranteed.

Are there any risks or side effects?

Temporary warmth, redness, swelling or tenderness can occur. Less commonly, excessive heating can cause burns or changes in skin pigmentation.

RF is not suitable for everyone. Tell your practitioner about relevant medical conditions, pregnancy, implanted electronic devices and any concerns before treatment.

Is a course better value?

At Olive Beauty, eight individual sessions would cost £440. Our course of eight is £380, which saves £60.

However, a course is only good value if the treatment and number of sessions are suitable for you. We recommend discussing your goals before committing to a package.
