Shape Pro facial radiofrequency
Radiofrequency that stimulates collagen and works on the firmness of the facial contour. One of the most mentioned sessions in the centre’s reviews.
How it worksControlled heat in the dermis that contracts existing collagen and stimulates the production of new collagen.
- Rhythm
- A protocol of consecutive sessions, then top-up sessions.
- Back to normal
- None: mild redness that passes, and you can wear makeup the same day.
- Price
- Agreed at the free assessment. Why there is no fixed price list →
What it is
Facial radiofrequency heats the dermis in a controlled way from the surface. That sustained heat does two things: it contracts the collagen fibres you already have, with a firmness effect you notice early, and it prompts the fibroblasts to make new collagen, which is the part that builds over the following weeks.
Unlike HIFU, which fires deep points, radiofrequency works a broader, shallower volume of tissue, and it feels far more pleasant: progressive warmth and massage. That is why it is the session people enjoy most and tolerate best.
It is a treatment of consistency. A one-off session is noticeable and feels good, but what actually changes the firmness of a skin is a sustained protocol.
Who it is for
- Skin that has lost firmness and density
- A facial contour that is starting to blur
- Neck and décolletage that have lost tone
- Dull skin that needs stimulus without aggression
- Anyone who wants no needles and no recovery of any kind
Better to wait, or to check first, if…
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding
- A pacemaker, defibrillator or other implanted electronic device
- Metal implants, plates or thread lifts in the area
- Rosacea or couperose in a flare, and skin with lesions, an active herpes flare-up or active infection
- Uncontrolled thyroid conditions, goitre or nodules: assessed with your doctor before the neck is worked
- Ongoing cancer treatment and autoimmune disease in an active phase
- Epilepsy
- Uncontrolled diabetes or neuropathy: if sensitivity to heat is altered, the session cannot be regulated safely
- Altered sensitivity to heat in the area from any cause
- Current or recent isotretinoin, and recent peels or laser without discharge
- Significant clotting disorders or anticoagulant treatment, without medical clearance
Radiofrequency and metal do not get along. If you have prostheses, plates or devices, say so at the assessment. And if you cannot feel heat properly in an area, say that too: the session is regulated by what you feel.
The session, step by step
- 01
Assessment
We look at the state of your skin and decide which areas are worked and at what intensity.
- 02
Cleansing and conductive medium
The skin is cleaned and the medium that lets the handpiece glide is applied.
- 03
Zone by zone
Each area is worked with continuous movements until the working temperature is reached and held, monitored throughout the session.
- 04
Drainage and finish
We finish with drainage manoeuvres and apply whatever suits your skin.
- 05
Aftercare
Sun protection and the instructions for home.
What it feels like
Building, pleasant warmth — hot stones with massage. It should never burn: we keep asking how it feels and adjust the power. It is the session people most often relax through.
Before and after
Before you come
- Come without makeup, or expect the cleanse first
- Take off jewellery and piercings in the area
- Tell us if you have prostheses, plates, threads or implanted devices
- Come well hydrated: dehydrated skin tolerates heat worse
After the session
- Redness and heat may remain: they pass quickly
- Drink water after the session
- High sun protection
- Avoid the sauna and very hot baths that day
- You can wear makeup as normal shortly after leaving
When you see it
You leave the session with better-looking skin, but part of that is the effect of the heat and the drainage. The result that lasts is the one new collagen brings, and that arrives with the full protocol and gradually.
What it does not do
- It does not replace a facelift, or HIFU where laxity is marked
- It does not remove localised fat from the face
- It does not fill deep wrinkles
- It does not hold on its own: without maintenance, the skin returns to its usual pace
