FACIAL QUANTUM RF
Short Summary
Quantum RF Skin Tightening is a state-of-the-art procedure that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin. Unlike surgical methods that require incisions and anesthesia, this treatment uses targeted RF energy to gently heat the deeper layers of the skin. This controlled heating triggers the body’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin, the key proteins responsible for maintaining the skin’s structure and elasticity.
As we age, the body produces less collagen, which is why the skin starts to lose its firmness and becomes more prone to wrinkles and sagging. By encouraging the production of new collagen, Quantum RF Skin Tightening effectively reverses some of these signs of aging, giving your skin a firmer, smoother appearance.

Additional information
-
Quantum RF is an advanced aesthetic technology that combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with precision-controlled microneedling and, in some devices, bipolar or monopolar configurations to deliver targeted thermal injury to the dermis while preserving the epidermis. The method uses insulated or non-insulated microneedles to introduce RF energy directly into the deeper skin layers, creating microthermal zones that stimulate collagen remodelling, elastin reorganisation and neocollagenesis. Parameters such as needle depth, pulse duration, and energy amplitude are adjustable, allowing customisation to skin type, anatomical site and specific laxity concerns.

Prior to arrival
A week before treatment stop all use of irritant topical products (Acids, Retinol, Vitamin C or scrubs)
If you are taking blood thinners, including NSAIDs such as Asprin or Ibuprofen, you should discuss with your doctor whether it is possible to discontinue their use throughout the course of your treatment.
On arrival
Dr Sultan will undertake an initial consultation to understand any of your concerns and to review your medical history, after which the treatment area will be photographed. He will advise you of your facial dynamics and the results that Botox® would likely achieve.
Once a treatment plan is agreed, he will administer the Botox®, after which there will be a number of small red bumps at the injection sites. These bumps usually settle down within hours and within 24 hours, should not be visible.
Results
The effects of the treatment commence within 3-5 days and it is normal for it to take between 10-12 days for the full effect of the treatment to become visible.
We will arrange for a follow up video consultation 12-14 days following the treatment and, if required, we may suggest a complimentary top-up at this point.
Within 3-4 months of the treatment, we would expect the effects to be wearing off and recommend booking a return visit.
