Skin laxity can affect your facial features as you age. Loss of collagen leaves your skin without support, causing it to lose firmness and definition. Oligio skin tightening restores lost collagen to lift and strengthen loose skin. This non-invasive treatment rejuvenates your skin for a smoother, more youthful appearance.
What is Oligio?
Oligio is a non-surgical skin tightening treatment that uses radiofrequency energy. Oligio offers an option for those with mild skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles, or other signs of aging. If you have noticed that your facial or neck skin looks looser or less firm but are not ready for a surgical method like a facelift, Oligo may be ideal for your needs. It addresses laxity by triggering new collagen production.
How Does Oligio Work for Skin Tightening?
Oligio uses radiofrequency (RF) technology to rejuvenate your skin. Its specialized handpieces deliver intensive but painless RF energy into the deep layers of the skin. This RF energy signals cells deep in the dermis to increase their collagen production. As these cells make new collagen, it is added to your skin’s supportive framework to lift and strengthen it. Oligo’s advanced technology protects your skin from heat and keeps it comfortable throughout your treatment, which usually lasts about 45 minutes, depending on the targeted areas.
Is There Any Downtime After Oligio?
Non-invasive Oligio at Awaken Aesthetics requires no downtime, and you can return to your usual activities. You may experience some redness and swelling that can last a few hours to a few days. Some treatment areas are more sensitive than others and may experience more redness. Treated areas will usually look back to normal within a day or two. Avoid excess sun exposure and wear sunscreen to prevent UV rays from damaging your newly produced collagen.
What Results Will I See With Oligio?
Some people see their desired results after one Oligio treatment, but others will need several sessions. You may see improvements in skin texture in as little as a few days. You will see skin tightening within a few weeks, with full results visible after three months. How long your new collagen lasts depends on your body’s response to treatment and how well you care for your skin. Some people may benefit from maintenance treatments once or twice a year to keep their skin looking rejuvenated.
Am I a Good Candidate for Oligio Skin Tightening?
Non-invasive Oligio is safe for almost everyone and all skin tones. Good candidates want to rejuvenate their skin and address mild skin laxity. Those with significant sagging skin may benefit more from a surgical procedure such as a facelift. You should not have any RF energy treatment if you have an implant such as a pacemaker.
