Is it true that skin ages after RF lifting?

The Russian Federation itself is unsafe, it can harm the entire body... but for the skin, additional stimulation is actually beneficial....

I've also been thinking about this procedure for a long time. I'm your age. And something needs to be done about my face. Of course, people usually think I'm about 10 years younger, but that's only when I look good and am in a good mood. I've really aged a lot this year. Injections only give temporary results. And they don't inject eyelids at all. I wanted to try RF on my eyelids. AND ACTUALLY, I'M ALREADY CONSIDERING PLASTIC SURGERY. I want to look genuinely better and about 15 years younger. I'm gathering information.

Has anyone done Fraxel? What are the results, and how long do they last?

A few years later??? She just started to age, that's all. What do procedures done several YEARS ago have to do with it? Nonsense. I had a SMAS facelift a year and a half ago. I looked like a young girl for half a year. Now everything has sagged again. And is SMAS to blame??!! They cut out and discarded a lot of skin.

My sister-in-law had it done when she was 39, twice, with no positive results. Now at 41, her skin is saggy, and she says the aging process accelerated after the RF lifting. She regrets doing it. My other sister-in-law is older, 45, and looks better than her sister. In my opinion, RF lifting is a cruel and harmful scam to extract money from people.

I think, in general, we should do fewer experiments on our skin. I'm almost 40 and don't look my age. I don't use anti-aging creams, only light, moisturizing, simple, and local ones. After a bath, I do finger massages and exercises (I just stand in front of the mirror and make faces—it's good for training the muscles). And I've noticed before that whenever I start aggressive facial treatments, the effect turns out negative. Probably, my skin doesn't like experiments.

That's awful. How many sessions did she have?

She only did it twice. Didn't continue.

I've done Fraxel probably two or three times already, don't remember exactly..)) The procedure is amazing! It's the foundation for all other device-based procedures, especially recommend it for those with enlarged pores and uneven, bumpy facial skin. The swelling, of course, is terrible, but the result is totally worth it! I definitely recommend it, especially in winter when holidays are long, everything will clear up in 10 days, not earlier, but the result stays for a very long time, for two years, for sure!!

Go to a cosmetologist – that's the solution. I had an RF-lifting procedure done a year ago. I look amazing – no wrinkles or sagging. A specialist is much more effective and delivers better results.

Can you tell me who performed your procedure? I can't seem to find a good esthetician.

I'm at Natalia Ivanova's. I've been going to her for six years now. So I know she does an excellent job. She works at the "Balance" clinic on Rublyovka.

I've never heard of such a lifting procedure before... I'm getting my breasts done this week at Doctor Plastic and I know my surgeon, Bakov, is really great at soft lifting—and there is such a rejuvenating technique... I'll think about it! But the most important thing is the boobs first) everything in order) ugh, please calm me down! I'm so nervous)))

I had one procedure, and the results were immediately noticeable after the procedure; even after a massage, the skin can appear tightened, etc. What confused me was that the aesthetician herself doesn't use this procedure—why is that, if the procedure is so fantastic? After two weeks, I noticed that my skin became like a rag, and how can I at least restore it to its previous condition now?

My cosmetologist told me that RF-lifting is often used for skin tightening on the abdomen of older women. The cosmetologist has four years of experience with this device. So far, there have been no negative reviews. I think it's not worth doing on the face. Either go for a massage or under the knife. But on the buttocks/stomach, it's fine.

There is a result, but it's not exactly "wow".

What nonsense. I've been doing it for 7 years. I'm 34 and look 25!
It feels like competitors of the hardware method are writing here.

You're the one writing nonsense, dear beautician. Oh, right, you probably don't look 25, but 15!

It's beneficial for the skin, but harmful for the body (the skin and body are one) so it's harmful

How recognizable you are, dear, and how tired we are of your advertising. Stop pushing this procedure in every thread.

Honestly, nonsense. After two procedures... not only does it do nothing but also makes you age. I did it, and my girlfriends did it and it's soooo awesome!!!

I agree. But can this procedure be done somewhere other than at a cosmetologist's?😊

Honestly, the nonsense you're writing, cosmetic girl. Your skin can get seriously damaged after just one improperly performed procedure. Yeah, and next time write a post asking where you and your friends get this procedure done, and you'll be like, "Yeah, sure, we all get it done at this clinic with this amaaazing doctor with their full name provided."

No, no, and no again... ONLY at a cosmetologist's, someone who's qualified to do injections. In Moscow, there's one - Kradina O.V.
So if you decide to go for it, my mom recommends her))

I had it done about three years ago, and the effect was very impressive. The skin really tightened and became very firm and elastic. Plus, the bags under my eyes disappeared—mine were small but noticeable. The RF-lifting was performed by Yulia Anatolyevna Dzyuba, the head of the cosmetology department at the Celine clinic. She is a very experienced and professional doctor. Now, I can't say I see a bad effect—there isn't one. But I go to the cosmetologist regularly, while some girls stop going and their skin continues to age, so the contrast makes it look much worse. You have to take care of yourself!

Exactly! Moreover, a woman over 40 writes: "I don't use anti-aging creams..." This shows that people don't take care of themselves at all, while aging processes still happen, especially nowadays. They find excuses to do nothing. But what surprises me is: RF is bad, but "injections give temporary effects") RF-lifting is scary, but injections aren't scary??? Injections have much more serious consequences than hardware cosmetology. At the same time: people think they did 2 procedures and will be beautiful for life? You need to do something regularly. Celebrities constantly get plastic surgery, haven't you wondered why? Yes, because you can't stop the aging process! You can reverse it. But you need to look at such things somewhat adequately. Or at least buy a decent cream, there's such a choice now.

Wow, is no one at all interested in your so-called "rejuvenating" treatments anymore, that you've turned this place into a circus?

Oh, interesting, where do such fears come from) and how do the authors imagine this. It's clear that it doesn't slow down the aging process but rather turns you back a few years! To age more slowly, you need to lead a proper lifestyle at the very least)) and work less))) I really liked the effect of the procedures, I had them done at Selin by Elena Egorova, it's been a few years now and I'm planning to do it again!

I did RF lifting, 6 months have passed and the skin on my face just sagged down, it's terrible, I barely managed to restore it, I don't recommend it,

I did RF lifting, at first the effect was good, but 6 months have passed and the skin on my face has sagged like a stocking

All procedures that stimulate the skin to look younger (except those that provide nourishment) are traumatic. But that's not the point; the point is that our cells have a finite reserve of youth. This is related to the length of DNA telomeres. The more a cell has divided, the shorter the telomeres become. So, if you stimulate the growth of new cells, the telomeres will be much shorter in old age. The cell's ability to divide will be lost, and it won't divide anymore. Every procedure is a path to nowhere. You'll see the effect now, but in 5-10 years, it'll be a disaster. No cosmetologist will tell you this. I'm telling you this as a biologist. Or look up cosmetologist Amina. She used to be a cosmetologist but has now distanced herself from it. She might have videos on device-based cosmetology. You have no idea what cosmetologists are actually offering. Even hyaluronic acid doesn't produce collagen and other benefits. It's just swelling... That's why the skin smooths out. Hyaluronic acid, when breaking down, binds and retains water, not that it affects collagen, elastin, and so on. It's all a lie to get your money...

You can. With a home device and clumsy hands. Do it on a professional device and with a specialist. You don't age after the procedure, but from nerves and stress, and from smoking - nasolabial folds, and from drinking you don't become more beautiful either. I did 7 procedures on my face and décolleté. I don't smoke or drink. Everything's fine. The effect lasts 2 years, and then we'll repeat it again. The effect appears after the 1st procedure, and becomes stable after the 4th. During the first month the skin looks dry, you need to drink a lot of water. Then within 2-4 months after the procedure the effect increases. Don't skimp if you want results. And for me, a 10-day break between procedures is better.

What nonsense. I used to get RF treatments regularly 5-7-8 years ago. Everything was great. I'm 41, but nobody believes it, they think I'm 30. Biorevitalizants and Dysport are your friends.

You wrote very correctly! That's exactly how it is. I've been doing RF for 9 years now, 1 procedure per area: eyelids first, then a week later the lower part of the face, then the neck. The results are just as you described. But my skin isn't dry after RF. I take care of it, plus sauna. I look very good, and genetics help too. But you need to do it with a good cosmetologist. And that's about 29 minutes per area. It should be a bit hot, you need to endure it, not painful.. I do it once a year around March 8th. My skin is always very firm, nothing sags.. By the way, I'm 65 years old.. Yes, small moles and jowls disappear too. In one procedure. So do it right, and consistently. Wishing everyone beauty and health! And also—I'm thin, slender, no belly. So I get by with one procedure. That's enough for me. With respect = ULYANOVSK.

Sorry - 20 min, not 29.

Well, if you start around 20, then maybe... although there might not be much to lift with RF-lifting yet. For me, RF-lifting is a great alternative to plastic surgery; I doubt I'll ever dare to cut my face, but device-based cosmetology really, really saves the day. I do courses several times a year on the Infini device—I want to stick with the same cosmetologist, Elena Egorova, at the Selin clinic, because only after her procedures do I see real results. My skin has become firmer, the oval of my face is well-defined, no sagging cheeks, even though my skin is prone to it. I'm very pleased. I'm 45, by the way.

I also have the same cosmetologist. I used to do several procedures on different zones, then noticed there's no difference whether it's one or three. Maybe because my face is thin. You're right, it's an excellent alternative to plastic surgery. My husband always notices - "Sooo, you went again, huh?" He likes it. My face doesn't age at all, doesn't sag, no jowls or molar bags. So, ladies, do RF. You won't regret it. I don't remember the device name - I think - tripolar. ULYANOVSK

Can you tell me, is RF very painful? I did Fraxel twice at medium frequencies, but with good anesthesia. I handled it fine. Now my doctor recommends RF. I'm afraid of pain. I want to understand the comparison of pain levels between these procedures. I'd be grateful for an answer.

I had an RF lifting procedure done today. So far, I'm satisfied. It feels like everything has tightened up. I have four more sessions to go, each two weeks apart. I tried it a year ago, but with a different machine. This time, they attached one plate to my back (I assume it's the opposite electrode), so I concluded it's a monopolar device. I wanted to combine this procedure with vacuum massage, but then I read that it's better to leave the skin alone for the first week. I'll see what the final result will be.

Not painful. But the esthetician works quickly and it's better not to distract her with conversation. If you even pause the handpiece in one spot for a second, it burns. Otherwise it just feels tolerably warm.

How interesting, then why do cosmetologists themselves use all the benefits of technology and medicine if it's so scary and leads to such consequences? Of course, it's all made up! I've been doing hardware procedures for a long time, tried many, everything is wonderful and only better, I fully trust my cosmetologist, you just need to go to good clinics. I actually go to Egorova E. N. and feel at ease about my beauty!

You keep going, dear Mrs. Egorova, you need to go to work after all

You're right! After such procedures, it's really hard to restore the skin.

How did you restore it? Same problem here.

Not all of them use them. Since I know at least one case of the sudden death of a cosmetologist famous throughout Novosibirsk from cancer. I think there's much more similar information in the cosmetology community. When stimulating cells, you can stimulate not only collagen growth.

Between the ages of 33 and 38, I underwent a course of 5-6 RF-lifting procedures every six months. I'll say right away: it helps if done on a good machine at the maximum tolerable temperature. My skin is prone to swelling and the formation of jowls. The effect after the procedure: the skin tightens, I would compare it to how a "hard-boiled egg" becomes firm due to the high temperature affecting the skin's protein, I suppose (well, that's how I understand it, but I'm not an expert!). However, I don't recommend it for girls with dry skin. My friend didn't like this procedure at all. Now I'm 40. I look my age. I haven't done RF-lifting for a long time because I'm not sure it can halt the natural aging process after 40((((((....

I'm 37 and have been troubled by dry, dehydrated skin and under-eye bags. At the end of last year, I had an unsuccessful mesoeyes treatment for dark circles—the swelling lasted over a week instead of the promised two days, and with New Year's approaching, my cosmetologist recommended RF lifting to reduce the swelling. I really liked the effect and read reviews saying there are no side effects or recovery time, which is a big plus since my skin is sensitive, papules take a long time to fade, and after the bad experience with mesoeyes, I'm afraid of injections—no one can guarantee they'll help instead of just being money thrown away. At least with this, you can't make it worse. So I decided to do a full-face course. I don't remember the name of the device. After the course, the wrinkles didn't disappear, but my skin became significantly firmer, morning creases almost vanished, the skin under my eyes became smooth and bright—overall, it's not scary to look in the mirror in the morning. The promised effect lasts for a year after the last procedure.

Could there really be significant regression after six months and become worse than before? I'd also like to hear more reviews.

I like the correction with hyaluronic acid... the results are immediate... I had my nasolabial folds done... it lasted for a year... then they became slightly visible again... I'll go for a touch-up.
Everything's great... as for Russia, I don't know... I haven't had it done there.

And you're making a mistake by not doing RF. I'm 66 now. I've been doing RF for 10 years, once every six months, one procedure. The machine is powerful, it needs to be hot but tolerable. Otherwise the effect isn't strong but it's there. The effect is noticeable immediately. But especially on the 3rd day. Then there's restoration of damaged fibers over 2 months, because indeed stretched collagen shrinks and gets damaged after the procedure. The face tightens very noticeably and for a long time. Even at my age there's an effect. I don't do any injections. I maintain facial tone with sauna and regular RF procedures. My face is kind of frozen at age 45. Especially since my figure matches 40-45 years old, with height 162cm - 52kg. And after 45-50 years, one 'fine' day you'll see those jowls even on a thin face. And you'll immediately remember the RF procedure. It will help right away. But I don't do courses, one procedure helps me enough, but I do separate zones - eyelids, lower part of face, neck. And that's enough. In general, beauty and health to you.
