What is RF Skin Tightening?
RF skin tightening, short for radio frequency skin tightening, is a non-surgical treatment that uses radiofrequency energy waves to heat the deep layers of the skin. During the treatment, a hand-held device is gently moved across the skin’s surface. It emits radiofrequency waves, which penetrate the skin layers. These waves create a controlled warmth that stimulates the production of collagen, a natural substance in our body that provides firmness and elasticity to the skin.
As new collagen forms, it helps to tighten and smooth the skin. This process naturally improves the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin, providing a fresher and more youthful look.
RF skin tightening can be performed on the:
- Face
- Neck
- Upper arms
- Back
- Abdomen
- Buttocks and thighs
- Knees

Ideal Candidates for RF Skin Tightening

- Mild to moderate skin laxity

- Areas of stubborn fat

Before & Afters
Results of RF skin tightening can be seen gradually over time as the treatment activates natural collagen stores within the deep tissue, leading to improved skin elasticity and firmness. The full effects of the treatment will become more visible as your skin heals and collagen presence is renewed.
What to Expect from Your RF Skin Tightening Session
When you choose RF skin tightening with Pollogen Legend at Red Carpet Aesthetics, you can expect a comprehensive and personalized treatment experience. Here’s a step-by-step overview of the process:
Initial Consultation
During your consultation, our experienced practitioners will assess your skin condition, discuss your goals, and determine if RF skin tightening is the right treatment for you. They will also provide information on the Pollogen Legend technology and answer any questions you may have.
Treatment
On the day of your treatment, your skin will be cleansed and prepped for the procedure. Our practitioners will ensure you are comfortable and ready for the treatment.
The Pollogen Legend device will be used to deliver radiofrequency energy to the targeted areas, heating the dermis and stimulating collagen production. Your provider will move the applicator over the treatment area while the device emits RF energy waves, gradually heating the deepest layers of skin to a warm but comfortable temperature many patients liken to a hot stone massage. The treatment typically takes less than an hour to complete.
Post-Treatment Care
Afterward, you may experience mild redness, swelling, or tingling, which should subside within a few hours to a couple of days. Our practitioners will provide you with aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results and a smooth recovery.
Depending on your specific treatment plan, you may require multiple sessions to achieve the desired results. Our practitioners will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
Results
As your skin heals and collagen production increases, you will notice gradual improvements in skin elasticity, firmness, and overall appearance. Full results may take several weeks to months to become visible.
Risks and Side Effects of RF Skin Tightening
RF skin tightening is generally considered safe when performed by experienced practitioners using FDA-cleared technologies like the Pollogen Legend. However, there are some potential risks and side effects associated with the treatment, including:
- Mild pain or discomfort during the procedure
- Swelling and redness at the treatment site
- Temporary tingling sensation
In rare cases, more severe side effects such as burns, surface irregularities, or fat atrophy have been reported. It’s essential to discuss any concerns with our practitioners during your consultation to ensure you are well-informed about the potential risks and benefits of RF skin tightening.
