By uniformly heating the subnormal tissue layers with a powerful but controlled radio frequency energy, ATTIVA allows a complete mastering of result with the highest precision and safety.

How It Works
1.During the consultation
If you are interested in ATTIVA treatment you should start by booking a consultation with our clinic doctor. During the consultation you will be able to express what you are looking to achieve and our doctor will be able to determine whether you are eligible to undergo this type of procedure after reviewing your medical history. If you are a viable candidate, our doctor will then discuss an appropriate treatment plan with you to achieve an optimal result.
2.During the procedure
On the day of the procedure anaesthetic will be applied in a small dose to create an entry point for the face and neck . For body treatments, anaesthetic will be injected to numb the areas. The treatment itself will last around 60 minutes, depending on the area and nature of the problem being treated. The treatment itself is virtually painless since the level at which it acts is not sensitive to pain, although there may be some mild discomfort during treatment in some sensitive areas.
3.After the treatment
Immediately after the first session most patients will see some enhancement, but the full result is obtained after 2 sessions, which are spread out over 4 months. Following the treatment, the body requires a minimum of 12 weeks to produce new Elastin and collagen fibers, therefore patience is key. There would be no visible signs on the face albeit some skin flushing and a sensation of tightness and occasionally some soreness. One can resume normal activities right after the treatment is done.
