AUREA BGC — RF & Ultrasound Protocols
Skin Tightening
Radiofrequency and ultrasound energy for collagen contraction, dermal remodeling, and progressive firming in BGC.
Treatment Overview
Skin tightening at AUREA BGC addresses the gradual loss of elasticity that occurs with age, sun exposure, and collagen depletion. Using radiofrequency (RF) energy and focused ultrasound, we heat the deep dermis to stimulate collagen contraction and long-term neocollagenesis.
Unlike surgical lifts, our skin tightening protocols require no incisions, no anesthesia, and no downtime. The treatment feels like a warm massage with intermittent heat spikes. Over 2-3 months, your skin gradually becomes firmer, smoother, and more lifted.
For clients in BGC and Manila noticing early jowling, neck laxity, or crepey skin, AUREA skin tightening provides a non-invasive solution that preserves your natural facial character while restoring youthful firmness.

The Experience
What to Expect
Consultation: Your dermatologist evaluates skin laxity, thickness, and elasticity. We photograph baseline images and map treatment areas - typically neck, jowls, around eyes, and forehead.
Preparation: Skin is cleansed and ultrasound gel or conductive gel is applied. We adjust energy settings based on your comfort threshold and skin response.
Treatment: The RF or ultrasound device delivers controlled heat to the dermis. You feel deep warmth with periodic hot pulses. The device includes real-time skin temperature monitoring for safety.
Aftercare: Mild redness resolves within 1-2 hours. No restrictions apply. We recommend hydrating well and using medical-grade skincare to support collagen production.
Results: Progressive improvement over 8-12 weeks. A series of 3-6 treatments is recommended for optimal results, spaced 2-4 weeks apart. Annual maintenance preserves results.

Questions & Answers
Frequently Asked
How is RF skin tightening different from HIFU?
RF (radiofrequency) heats the dermis at 1.5-3mm depth, providing surface-to-mid-level tightening ideal for fine lines and texture. HIFU reaches the SMAS layer at 4.5mm for structural lifting. RF is best for early laxity and skin quality; HIFU is better for sagging. Many clients combine both for comprehensive rejuvenation.
Does skin tightening hurt?
Most clients describe RF skin tightening as a warm, pleasant sensation with occasional hot pulses. We adjust energy levels to your comfort. Topical anesthetic is rarely needed. The treatment is significantly more comfortable than most laser procedures.
How many sessions will I need?
For optimal results, 4-6 sessions spaced 2-4 weeks apart are recommended. Mild laxity may improve with 3 sessions. More advanced sagging may require 6-8 sessions. Your AUREA dermatologist will provide an honest assessment at consultation.
Can skin tightening replace a facelift?
Non-surgical tightening cannot replicate surgical results. However, for mild to moderate laxity, it provides meaningful improvement without risks, scars, or recovery time. For severe sagging, we provide honest surgical referrals. AUREA's philosophy is to recommend the right solution, not the most profitable one.
Is there any downtime?
None. You may have mild redness for 1-2 hours. Makeup can be applied immediately. You can resume all normal activities including exercise the same day. This makes RF skin tightening ideal for busy professionals in BGC and Makati.
