Welcome to Eterna™ RF Treatment: Your Skin's Ally
What is Radiofrequency Treatment?
Radiofrequency skin treatments are innovative, noninvasive procedures designed to address textural concerns, particularly fine lines and wrinkles. They harness the power of controlled heat generated by radiofrequency energy, transmitted via radio waves. This energy gently stimulates your skin's layers, triggering a natural healing response that encourages collagen production.
This technology first emerged in 2001 and earned FDA approval for fine lines and wrinkles in 2002. Since then, it has gained recognition for its effectiveness in various other applications.
Did You Know? Everyday sources of radiofrequency energy include microwave ovens, cordless phones, WiFi routers, baby monitors, and radio-controlled toys.
RF Treatments and Dry Eyes
For those suffering from dry eyes, which can be caused by inflammation or dysfunction of the meibomian glands responsible for producing the oily layer of tears (meibum), this treatment can help. During the procedure, the meibomian glands are stimulated, promoting blood circulation and gland activity. This increased production of healthy meibum prevents excessive tear evaporation, ensuring your eyes stay well-lubricated. Unlike temporary relief methods such as eye drops or hot compresses, radiofrequency treatment directly addresses the root cause.
What to Expect with Your RF Treatment
During the Procedure:
Duration: Typically takes 20-30 minutes.
Setting: Conducted in a comfortable office environment.
Preparing Your Skin: Begins with a clean, make-up free face (we have cleaning products if needed).
Gel Application: A water-based gel is applied to the treatment area.
Gentle Energy Delivery: Radiofrequency energy is administered using an electrode hand-piece, creating a pleasant, warm sensation.
Skin Temperature Monitoring: Throughout the procedure, your skin temperature is continuously monitored using a temperature sensor.
After the Procedure:
Expect Some Redness: Don't be alarmed if you experience light redness (erythema); it usually fades within 24-48 hours.
Possible Dryness: You might notice some dryness for 24-48 hours, which is normal.
Skincare Care Tips:
- Keep Your Skin Hydrated
- Apply Daily Moisturizer
- Use a Gentle Cleanser
- Don't Forget Daily SPF 30+
Cleansing: When washing your face, opt for lukewarm water and a gentle cleanser. Avoid hot water until the redness subsides.
Routine Resumption: You can return to your regular skincare routine just 24 hours after the treatment.
Stay Cool: For the first 24 hours, it's best to steer clear of strenuous exercise, excessive sweating, hot baths, and saunas.
Sun Protection: Minimize direct sun exposure for 72 hours if possible, to protect your skin.
Results Timeline: You'll likely start noticing visible results after 7 days, with continued improvement as the body makes new collagen. Most patients see significant improvements by day 28.
