TREATMENT OVERVIEW
Radiofrequency energy is used to deliver heat to collagen-containing tissue. The actual settings and treatment scope depend on the area treated, skin condition, and prior treatment history.
Some patients may notice gradual tightening-related changes over time, but the timing and degree of visible response vary. At Cellinique, consultation is used to set realistic expectations first.
