How Does The Non-Surgical Collagen Boosting Face and Neck Lift Treatment Work?
Using the advanced Radio Frequency ("RF") based technologies from PureGenex is the most advanced non-invasive, non-surgical face and neck lift, skin tightening and toning treatment available to provide amazing face and neck lift results, whilst also boosting collagen production.
Depending upon your specific circumstances, we will use either stand-alone multi-polar Radio Frequency of our new PureGenex 4D-Sculpt platform, or a controlled combination of Vacuum Targeted Radio Frequency to precisely target and heat the collagen fibres within the treatment area. We offer the very latest in skin tightening and lifting therapies to ensure optimal treatment for your particular needs.
Unlike older RF-only technologies, such as Accent and Thermage, which are unable to accurately target the treatment area, these Non-Surgical Face and Neck Lift treatments leverage the latest in "Vacuum Targeted RF" technology. Our Non-Surgical Face and Neck lift are the ultimate skin tightening, lifting and smoothing treatments causing the following effects.
Skin Tightening
- Existing collagen tissues shrink, providing an immediate tightening and plumping effect.
- Old, fibrous collagen is denatured and broken down by the body.
- Fibroblasts (the cells that create new collagen) are stimulated to create new, fresh, supple collagen.
Smoothing and Lifting
- As the collagen contracts and is restructured, the dermal tissues are lifted and plumped, achieving a more supple, youthful appearance.
- Vacuum targeted radio frequency with electronic impedance matching continuously monitors the impedance within the dermal tissues and adjusts the energy output to ensure optimal therapeutic effect, whilst also maintaining complete safety.
How does this have a skin tightening and lifting effect?
Loose skin due to weight loss or ageing of the supporting tissues appears wrinkled and lifeless. Old, fibrous and dis-organised collagen fibres are unable to support the skin.
Our revolutionary Face and Neck Lift and skin tightening treatments achieve immediate lifting and tightening effects as existing collagen fibres contract, as well as longer lasting tightening, smoothing and lifting as new collagen is produced.
A massage oil is applied to the treatment area, then the Non-Surgical Face and Neck Lift treatment commences. The advanced technology generates heat in the subcutaneous layer, causing the existing active collagen to contract, delivering immediately tighter feeling skin.
The RF energy also selectively denatures (breaks down) the old, inflexible collagen and stimulates the re-growth of fresh, healthy and flexible collagen fibres. With successive treatments, this cumulative effect will deliver long lasting results!
The Radio Frequency energy is absorbed gently by the skin, resulting in the water molecules becoming energised. Their movement causes a build-up of heat within the tissues, which in turn conditions and tones the surface tissues to provide a more even skin tone and youthful glow.
The laying down of fresh, new collagen fibres results in skin remodeling, taking place over 3-6 months and lasting up to two years, although “top up” treatments every 6-9 months can prolong this effect.
A cooling gel is applied to the treatment area, then the Stretch Mark Reduction treatment commences. The multi-polar RF technology generates heat in the subcutaneous layer, causing the existing active collagen to contract, delivering immediately tighter feeling skin.

End Result
The volume of collagen increases in a more organised structure. This reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, whilst also providing tighter, plumper firmer feeling skin. Altogether a more youthful, supple and smoother complexion is achieved with this unbelievable face and neck lift treatment.
Each of the combined therapies operating within the Non-Surgical Face and Neck Lift treatment are what we call "cumulative therapies". This means they work immediately during each treatment but, in order to achieve optimal results, a series of treatments is required over a period of weeks. This enables the time needed in between treatments for the body to react naturally to the stimulating effects of the therapies and re-construct the tissues being targeted to naturally achieve the objective; smoother, tighter and more supple face, cheeks, forehead and neck.
Non-Surgical RF Face and Neck Lift FAQs
Who can be treated with Radio Frequency?
Neal2022-05-02T17:03:29+00:00Due to the non-invasive nature of our Radio Frequency based treatments, they are suitable for both men and women that wish to look their best and do not wish to endure the costs and risks of cosmetic surgery. However, there are a small number of clinical conditions that would prevent treatment, please check the "Can I be Treated" tab on this page for more details. If you have any specific questions or requirements, please contact us for more information.
I have lost weight and been left with loose skin. Will radio frequency treatments work for me?
Neal2022-05-02T17:02:17+00:00Absolutely! Radio Frequency treatments such as the Body Sculpting and Skin Tightening Treatment, or non-srigcal facelift, are extremely effective at rejuvenating loose skin after significant weight loss. In severe cases, more than one course may be required to achieve the desired results, but this is something we can discuss with you during the free consultation.
Do Radio Frequency treatments hurt?
Neal2022-11-02T13:17:06+00:00Most patients find the Radio Frequency treatments extremely comfortable and liken them to a warm deep tissue massage. The treatments are customised to accommodate your sensitivity and comfort level, which will be closely monitored by the technician throughout the treatment. It is normal to experience a warm sensation for a few hours post treatment. Your skin may also appear redder than usual for several hours, but this subsides very quickly.
How do I improve and maintain the results of my treatments?
Neal2022-05-02T22:40:00+00:00After completing your course, it is recommended to periodically have maintenance treatments. Like any non-surgical or surgical aesthetic techniques, the results will last longer if you follow a balanced diet and exercise regularly, as this provides a stronger platform to maintain your new, healthier complexion.
How quickly will I notice a change following body sculpting treatment?
Neal2022-05-02T16:57:28+00:00Gradual improvement of the treated area can be seen following the first treatment - with the skin surface of the treated area feeling smoother, more supple and tightened. With a course of treatments, these results will be cumulative. Once the course is completed, final results in circumference reduction, skin rejuvenation and tightening will be most apparent after 6-8 weeks.
Which areas can be treated with radio frequency?
Neal2022-05-02T16:56:29+00:00Our PureGenex Body Sculpting and Skin Tightening Treatments can be used to target many areas of the body where loose skin, unsightly bulges, or unwanted "rippled" fatty areas exist. The most common areas targeted are :-
- Stomach (Abdomen)
- Thighs
- Upper & Lower back fat

- Knees
- Decolletage / Chest

Is the 4D-Sculpt similar to Velashape?
Neal2022-05-02T16:51:11+00:00The 4D-Sculpt treatments leverage a similar combination of therapeutic energies as Velashape. However, we believe the unique treatment protocols and specific configuration of each of the therapies applied within our Body Sculpting and Skin Tightening treatments delivers the best results possible.
What happens when I come for a Radio Frequency treatment?
Neal2022-05-02T16:49:56+00:00Your Radion Frequency Skin Tightening Treatment (including Body Sculpting, Non-surgical facelift, and others) experience will begin with a FREE consultation. During this we will discuss the areas of your body you would like to improve, the likely length of treatment required and how those areas will be targeted by the treatments. Following the consultation and the completion of a medical questionnaire, the targeted area will then be accurately measured and photographs taken to enable us to monitor your progress. The treatments will then commence as follows :-
Gentle oils or cooling gel (dependent upon area being treated) will be applied to the treatment area. This is to ensure optimal transmission of the therapeutic energies into the dermal tissues.
The appropriate treatment is then configured and the treatment head applied to the treatment area.
The machine is then switched on and the treatment head is moved across the targeted area(s) several times to ensure complete coverage.
After treatment the skin will be cleaned of all oils and gel, leaving the skin feeling smoother, more supple and rejuvenated.
