If cosmetics or surface treatments aren’t giving you the results you want for your skin, ATTIVA RF could be the ideal solution. It delivers long-lasting improvement, with no safety concerns and little to no downtime.
Attiva IRF is an innovative subdermal treatment that enhances skin texture, using precisely controlled energy to improve skin and stimulate natural collagen and elastin production, resulting in smoother-looking skin.
By uniformly heating the subdermal tissue layers with powerful but controlled energy, ATTIVA provides near-surgical results in a safe, minimally invasive procedure.
The Attiva IRF energy first contracts soft tissue, then shrinks the collagen structure of the dermis. This stimulates fibroblast activity, which in turn stimulates elastin production and the synthesis of new collagen, for more toned, supple, younger-looking skin,
Benefits of Attiva IRF non-surgical facelift are several and include:
- Minimally invasive treatment completed in the office
- Remain awake and comfortable throughout your treatment
- Avoidance incisions that can result in unsightly scars
- There is no need for infiltration of fluids before treatment
- Immediate results that improve over time
- A quick recovery period means no income loss, preservation of family obligations, or setbacks in your social calendar
- Reducing mechanical trauma resulting in unnecessary soft tissue injury or swelling
- Time savings with fewer post-operative visits to the clinic
What Attiva IRF Treats
Patients who want to look younger most often request treatments for excessive fat and sagging skin. Attiva® is highly effective in treating key areas of concern - including the face, eyes, neck, décolleté, upper arms, breast, abdomen and thighs.
How Attiva® Works
Attiva uses a proprietary radiofrequency, introduced subdermally through a probe, that has probed uniquely effective in the structural and functional restoration of the extracellular matrix (ECM).
- The Attiva wavelength is designed to produce maximum interaction with treated tissues. Heat below 50° is transferred to the tissues, causing electrical stimulation of the fibroblasts and myofibroblasts which produce the structures of the ECM.
- The Mechanical effect of the subcutaneous probe stimulates structural cells affected by the thermoelectric stimulus.
- Attiva acts on the stem cells of the treated structures, so that in addition to stimulating fibroblasts, it regenerates. arterial-venolymphatic capillaries - essential for delivering nutrients and removing catabolites in all cells.
- The deconstruction of the fibrillar fascia and its functional restoration through the neo-production of collagen and elastin.
Attiva® FAQs
Am I a good candidate?
Attiva is a good choice if you are looking for a skin laxity treatment in a single session without the downtime and the risk associated with surgery. The procedure simulates the body’s own healing and regenerative process to produce new collagen; therefore, overall good health and reasonable expectations are important requirements.
Is Attiva treatment safe?
The RF technology is proven to be extremely efficient and safe. A built-in Double Temperature Control, combined with an external thermocontrol camera, allows constant monitoring of the probe inside the tissues and the surface skin temperature. During the entire session the physician monitors the parameters and the results.
How long does it take to see visible results?
Most patients see improvement in their skin immediately after treatment. But you will get even better results after 2 to 3 months, after the body has had time to produce new elastin and collagen fibers.
How many treatments with Attiva are needed?
Most patients plan to have one Attiva treatment followed by a session of RF Microneedling between 6 and 8 weeks; however, a second Attiva session or different skin rejuvenation modality may be indicated. The results will improve over the course of about 6 months at which point they will stabilize.
How long will my results last?
You will see optimal results after 3 to 5 months and those results will last 18 to 20 months.
Is the treatment painful?
The procedure is well-tolerated completely awake. The treated area is under local anesthesia and Pronox may be used upon request. Your provider will ensure the procedure is safe, effective, and comfortable for you.
How long is the treatment and what is the recovery time?
Treatments can be as short as 30 minutes, or longer, depending on the treatment area and the results you want. Recovery time can be next to nothing, or up to a few days, if the treatment is more extensive and combined with other procedures.
