THE IMPORTANCE OF COLLAGEN TO SKIN

Collagen keeps our skin youthful looking, soft, and smooth. As we age, our collagen reserve diminishes leaving us with fine lines, wrinkles and skin that is slower to bounce back.

Secret RF is an easy, convenient treatment that can be performed in a quick, 20-minute session.

Your provider will apply a numbing cream for increased comfort. During the treatment, you will feel some heat and pressure on the treatment area which is tolerable for most patients. Your provider will work with you to maximize your comfort level.

What can I expect after my treatment?

A topical cream, SPF, or ointment will be applied to your skin. You should refrain from wearing makeup for several hours.
