Nonsurgical Facelift
As we age, the structure and texture of our skin change. We produce smaller quantities of our structural proteins, so we might experience issues such as sagging or wrinkling. By the time they are in their late 30s and early 40s, many people wish they could regain the smooth, regular features of their youth. However, not everyone is willing to undergo surgery to achieve this goal.
Fortunately, there is a highly effective and minimally invasive alternative. Radiofrequency treatment allows you to experience the anti-aging properties of a facelift without having to deal with the cost and lengthy recovery time of surgery. Within a few weeks or months, you will get rid of lingering skin conditions and marks. Let’s have a closer look at how this treatment works and what the two options are.
What Is the Non-Surgical Facelift?
As we age, the structure and texture of our skin change. We produce smaller quantities of our structural proteins, so we might experience issues such as sagging or wrinkling.

Fortunately, there is a highly effective and minimally invasive alternative. Radiofrequency treatment allows you to experience the anti-aging properties of a facelift without having to deal with the cost and lengthy recovery time of surgery. Within a few weeks or months, you will get rid of lingering skin conditions and marks. Let’s have a closer look at how this treatment works and what the two options are.
Agnes RF
Agnes is a nonsurgical radiofrequency device that allows us to treat issues such as acne, bags under your eyes, a double chin, and small lines or wrinkles without making any incisions. The device uses micro-insulated needles to penetrate your skin and deliver beneficial radiofrequency energy to your tissues. That way, the inner layers of your skin are encouraged to heal, but the outer layer, the epidermis, isn’t damaged.
In addition to the skin, subcutaneous fat can be targeted. That’s why Agnes is such a great treatment for people with a double chin, jowls, and eye bags, which are often caused due to stubborn fat deposits. Because the oil glands can be destroyed with the Agnes device, this is also an effective and permanent treatment for acne. Once you’ve had your series of treatments, you can expect the results to appear within 14 days.
Scarlet SRF
Scarlet is a complementary radiofrequency treatment that is considered the safest in the industry. This device also uses microneedling to deliver the radiofrequency pulse directly to the deeper layers of the skin and the tissues below. As a result, a process called electrocoagulation occurs. It allows the tissues to produce more of the structural proteins elastin and collagen and rejuvenates the dermal fibers.
Some of the issues that can be treated with Scarlet include acne, acne scars, and spider veins. It can also improve the effects of rosacea, treat sun damage, soften the fine lines caused by aging, and shrink enlarged pores. Each Scarlet session takes about 20-30 minutes, and the number of treatments you need depends on your skin’s current condition. Most people can benefit from three treatments and regular maintenance appointments.
How It Works
Before you can have radiofrequency treatment, we must evaluate whether this is the right method for you. Here at Clearskin Institute of Laser Aesthetics, we offer many cosmetic treatments that address skin concerns, so we’ll analyze your facial features and decide which treatment is the most appropriate. If we believe that Agnes and Scarlet are the best solutions, we will come up with a treatment plan and then book you in for the first session.
When you arrive for your appointment, we will clean the skin and set up the device to target your treatment area. Most people don’t feel any pain during their sessions because each radiofrequency pulse is very short, and the microneedle electrodes are very thin. Instead, they might feel gentle pressure and a warm sensation.
Getting Great Results
Most patients who get treated with Agnes RF or Scarlet SRF experience excellent results. However, the effects of the treatment might be weaker if you participate in activities that damage the skin. After your sessions, avoid exposing yourself to too much sunlight, smoking, and drinking excessive amounts of alcohol. Instead, eat healthily, drink plenty of water, and get enough sleep. By leading a healthy lifestyle, you can further improve the quality of your skin.
Who Is This Right for?
Radiofrequency treatment is minimally invasive, so you’re likely to be a good candidate even if you’re not currently eligible for surgery due to a medical condition. However, you should bring all your health records to the clinic so we can evaluate whether the treatment will be safe for you. People who have a severe illness related to the skin, the heart, or another vital organ might have to speak to their doctor before booking a session.
If you have an open wound at the treatment site, you’ll have to delay your radiofrequency appointment because it could make your injury worse. As soon as you’ve recovered, you can book a session. Similarly, women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should wait until their child is older.
You Want Smoother and Tighter Skin
The main reason why our patients ask for Agnes RF or Scarlet SRF is that they are suffering from a stubborn condition of the skin. Most commonly, these devices are used on the face, which is one of the most exposed body parts and therefore more prone to damage.
As discussed above, the two methods can address a variety of concerns, many of which are associated with aging. If you’d like to regain your smooth and tight skin and get rid of marks, RF treatment could be a great solution for you.
