A facial-care option for anyone who wants to focus on the feeling of firmness and facial tone, beyond a maintenance cleanse.
What it is
It's usually chosen for firmness-related goals: improving skin tone, addressing areas that feel less firm, or complementing a regular facial care routine with an approach geared more towards firmness than cleansing. At Anaël, Facial Radiofrequency is approached as one considered part of a wider care routine.
Common goals
It's usually chosen for firmness-related goals: improving skin tone, addressing areas that feel less firm, or complementing a regular facial care routine with an approach geared more towards firmness than cleansing.
Who it may suit
It may appeal to anyone looking for a facial treatment specifically focused on firmness, as a complement or alternative to other facial care geared more towards cleansing, texture, or pigmentation. Suitability is assessed individually during the prior consultation.
Treatment areas
It's usually applied to the face and, often, the jawline and neck; the specific areas for each person are defined during the prior assessment with the Anaël team.
What a typical appointment looks like
The appointment begins with a brief conversation about what you are looking for and how your skin feels that day. Before starting, the team explains the focus of the service and any relevant guidance.
What you might feel
The sensation during an in-salon facial treatment is usually gentle and well tolerated, though it varies depending on the technology used and the area treated. The team walks you through what to expect at your pre-session consultation.
Preparation
As a general guideline before a facial treatment, it's advisable to arrive with clean skin, without makeup if possible, and to mention any allergy, medication, or relevant skin condition to the team. The team adds any further guidance at your pre-treatment consultation.
Aftercare
After a facial treatment, a gentle care routine is usually recommended, with sun protection and avoiding irritating products in the following hours. The team gives you specific aftercare guidance at the end of the session, based on the area treated and your skin.
Some facial treatments can cause mild, temporary redness, similar to that of a deep facial cleanse. The team explains which reactions are common and how to care for your skin afterward.
A treatment adapted to you
Facial Radiofrequency is not presented as a one-size-fits-all formula. The appointment starts with a clear conversation about your priority and the kind of care you are looking for.
If you are deciding between Facial Radiofrequency and another option, the Anaël team can help you compare them before you book.
Alternatives at Anaël
Facial radiofrequency stands apart from the salon's other facial treatments in its focus: while the facial cleanse and HydraFacial centre on cleansing and hydration, and the spot treatment or photorejuvenation work on pigmentation, facial radiofrequency is specifically geared towards firmness. Dermapen/Microneedling, which focuses on texture and skin renewal, can be combined with it depending on each person's goals.
Common reasons to consult
It's usually considered when someone notices a feeling of sagging or reduced firmness in the face, or when the main goal is skin tone rather than cleansing, texture, or pigmentation spots.
