Our super-tightening Dual Lift Therapy gets your skin ‘red carpet ready’ thanks to a powerful combination of IPL Rejuvenation and RF Skin Tightening .
This treatment tightens, lifts and frames the face, while stimulating collagen production and reducing fine lines and wrinkles, resulting in a fresher, more youthful look.
The Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is one of the most commonly administered forms of light therapy. IPL systems are designed to deliver many rapid, high intensity and controlled pulses of light – similar to photo flashes. The controlled pulsing prevents thermal damage to your skin and minimises discomfort. Our IPL Rejuvenation treatment, one of the two modalities we have combined in this treatment, is reducing the visible signs of ageing, especially fine lines and wrinkles, sagging skin, and sun damage.
The Radio Frequency (RF) Skin Tightening, the second modality in this treatment, is a gentle treatment which uses heat to boost collagen and elastin production naturally. It works by heating the tissue under the skin’s surface, which tightens the skin, stimulates collagen and elastin production, and improves circulation and lymphatic drainage in the treated area.
The result is goddess-worthy, tightened, deeply hydrated and plump skin.
Before the treatment can start, we will assess your current state of the skin. If you are visiting us for the first time, please allow an additional hour for our complete Facial Imaging Skin Assessment.
You will be required to give consent for treatment by signing the 'Informed Consent' form. This way, we can make sure that you can receive the Dual Lift treatment and have no present conditions which are contraindicated with this procedure.
In addition, a test patch will be carried out at least 24 hours prior to initial treatment to determine that the IPL session will be effective and, most importantly, safe for you.
It is very important that you keep your skin and body well-hydrated before and after the treatment.
During your IPL session, you may experience a warm sensation as the light is applied to your skin, but the treatment is gentle and should not feel uncomfortable. Some people may feel mild stinging or prickling.
The RF Skin Tightening procedure is quick and pleasant and feels like a hot stone massage on your face. Your Skin Therapist will use a special handheld device with several prods to trace over your entire face.
Immediately following treatment, you may experience some redness (similar to sunburn), which usually disappears within a few hours. However, you can go about your day immediately and resume wearing makeup 24 hours after treatment.
The number of sessions will depend on your individual skin program - ideally be 4-6 sessions, every 1-2 weeks. For best results, we recommend our Skin Firm 10 Week Program. Speak to our expert skin therapists here at Skin Correctives to determine the right treatment program for you.
For several days after treatment, we advise being particularly vigilant about wearing sunscreen and keeping your skin and body hydrated.
A Facial Imaging Skin Assessment is an essential first step in your skin correction journey. That’s why we offer a complimentary skin consultation with your first skin treatment.
