Anyone had a radio frequency facial ?

I want to get something to improve my skin and slightly lift my slightly sagging jowels, I have pretty clear fresh skin. I am 55 but most people think I am having a laugh when I say that...no children, don't smoke, eat incredibly healthy food, look mid 40s, and my biological age (did a test) is 42. One skincare place suggested profhilo another Radiofrequency facial. What I don't want is a "mask" look...any experience?.

Caci facials would probably work. You need to keep going though. But they work

Defo recommend the RF facial, as it's stimulating collagen production. CACI facials work but they need constant upkeep, they use micro current. RF over them any day of the week. You will need maintenance sessions but not as frequently.
Good skincare range is vital, mainly a good retinol, active serum ( vit c- needed for collagen production and fight oxidative stress, hylaronic acid- hydration) and an SPF.
DMK is a fab range to use with amazing facials, also Environ & SkinCeuticals 🙌

I managed to get a good deal on a series of 5 radio frequency facials and after 3 I can see good results. I'm using with my usual skincare routine which includes tree every 2nd day and my once blotchy skin is becoming more even-toned, the massive pores on my chin are less obvious and I can see sun damage fading, my skin texture is also becoming really nice. So all in all I'm really happy with these facials. However, financially I can't sustain the every month even with a deal so my question is does anyone use and can they recommend a hand held radio frequency home device. I've been looking at NuFace and Foreo. If anyone has experience with these or other makes I'd love to hear about it before I start spending money.

Aren’t Nuface and Foreo microcurrent like CACI? I have a Newa RF device (and a Nuface and Foreo- which broke!).

The Newa is ok but quite labour intensive - 25 mins 5 times a week. Looking at Tripollar next.

The main thing with at home devices is that you need to commit to using them.

I have been told to have 6 and then top up every year. Had the first today.

I used to have radiiofrquency facials but be careful as they made me lose fat in my face - especially around my peri-orbital area.
They definitely lifted my cheeks but I do regret them in terms of what they did to my eyes.

That’s interesting. I had no idea they could do that - thanks for the heads up.

Oh that's not something mentioned to me, I shall ask.

Is this Forma @Livelifelaughter ? I’m very tempted as a local salon is offering this on discount at the moment but I can’t afford to lose any fat off my face. Same issue as you though, pretty good for mid fifties but a definite softening around the chin area.

Maybe speak to them as they rather said my face would lift a little, but as it depends on your body response it's not guaranteed.
I am paying £600 for 6 sessions, one per week
