At our clinic we provide you with a wide range of cosmetic medicine treatments, using specific techniques such as radiofrequency. This is a non-invasive, painless procedure that uses high-frequency electromagnetic waves to improve the appearance of skin. By applying these waves, there is an increase in temperature in the different layers of the skin, thus stimulating the formation of collagen and elastin, regenerating the skin, and combating excess fat or signs of ageing.
Radiofrequency treatment has 2 phases: stimulation and contribution.
The stimulation phase consists of 3 types of radiofrequency:
- Capacitive radiofrequency with LED: it acts at the cellular level without increasing temperature. The high-intensity red LED stimulates synthesis and prevents the degradation of collagen and elastin.
- Capacitive radiofrequency: it increases the temperature of the top and middle layers of the skin, causing an increase in the synthesis of collagen, elastin and reticulin, as well as restructuring and redensifying tissue.
- Resistive radiofrequency: it increases the temperature of the skin’s deepest layers, favouring reduction of localised fat and producing a draining and venotonic action.
The contribution phase consists of applying a smart transdermal delivery. This technology allows the maximum penetration of topical products.
There is facial and body radiofrequency; applicable on arms, abdomen, buttocks, legs and breasts.
Radiofrequency is adapted to the individual needs of each person. In cosmetic medicine, this technique is used to treat ageing in early stages, both at face and body level. However, in more advanced cases of ageing, it can be combined with other treatments to obtain better results.

- Tightens and redefines the facial oval.
- Improves expression wrinkles on the forehead and eye contour area.
- Increases hydration and radiance.
- Improves texture and refines the skin surface.
- Combats neck sagging and double chin.
- Has a reshaping, draining, and lipolytic effect, and activates microcirculation in the body.
Expected outcome
Considerations to be taken into account
- Radiofrequency is a technique that is safe and offers many aesthetic benefits. However, during treatment sessions, the following skin reactions can occur, which usually disappear in a few days:
- Redness.
- Slight discomfort (very rare).
- Feeling hot.
FAQs
El número de sesiones de radiofrecuencia necesarias varía según cada persona y sus necesidades específicas. Por lo general, se recomienda un tratamiento inicial seguido de sesiones de mantenimiento para prolongar los resultados.
El tiempo de duración de cada sesión de radiofrecuencia depende del área del cuerpo a tratar. Por ejemplo, para la radiofrecuencia facial, las sesiones duran entre 30 y 60 minutos. En cambio, para las sesiones corporales, el tiempo puede variar entre 60 y 90 minutos.
La radiofrecuencia suele ser un tratamiento cómodo y bien tolerado por la mayoría de las personas. Puedes experimentar una sensación de calor o ligero hormigueo durante el procedimiento, pero no debería ser doloroso.
Los resultados de la radiofrecuencia suelen ser progresivos y se pueden observar inmediatamente o pasadas unas semanas o meses después del tratamiento. Todo dependerá de la problemática que estemos tratando; por ejemplo, la producción de colágeno y elastina mejora con el tiempo, logrando así una piel más firme y elástica.
La radiofrecuencia es segura y efectiva para la mayoría de las personas. Sin embargo, existen ciertas condiciones médicas en las que no se recomienda este tratamiento. Por ejemplo, si se tiene enfermedades cardíacas, trastornos de coagulación o diabetes descompensada, es importante evitar este tratamiento. Además, las mujeres embarazadas o lactantes deben abstenerse de someterse a este tratamiento. En estos casos, es importante consultar al profesional antes de considerar la radiofrecuencia como opción de tratamiento.
