The jawline softens, the skin of the neck loses its tension, and the stomach or thighs sometimes hold onto laxity after a pregnancy. Radiofrequency skin tightening aims to firm the skin, from the face to the body, by restarting your natural collagen production.
No needles, no incision, no time off: you leave and get on with your day. Le Spa Infinima offers this treatment at its Place Ste-Foy location, and a consultation determines whether radiofrequency is right for your skin.

Four good reasons to trust our team with your radiofrequency treatment.
Radiofrequency leaves neither lasting redness nor downtime. You resume your activities as you leave the spa, with no recovery step to plan around. It's a treatment that fits into a normal day rather than blocking one out.
Founded in 2008, Le Spa Infinima practises aesthetic care in a relaxing setting. Your radiofrequency session pairs with a facial, a massage or access to the nordic baths. Skin firming becomes a moment for you, not just an appointment.
Our medical-aesthetic services, including radiofrequency, are offered at our Place Ste-Foy location. This site brings our skin-firming technologies together in a space designed for care, in the heart of Sainte-Foy.
Radiofrequency works over a protocol of several sessions. Medicard financing, offered on our medical-aesthetic services from $500, lets you spread the cost rather than fragment your treatment plan. ..
Radiofrequency treatment targets the areas where skin laxity shows first. On the face, neck and décolleté, the heat acts where the collagen fibres have loosened. Each protocol is adjusted to your skin, its density and the degree of laxity noted during the consultation.
The jawline is the most requested area. Over time, the skin of the cheeks loses its tension, the cheekbones drop and jowls form along the jaw. This radiofrequency treatment tightens the existing fibres and gradually redraws the line of the face.
The neck and décolleté respond well to the same approach. These areas have thin skin, more exposed to the sun and often overlooked in daily routines. Radiofrequency firming aims to improve their firmness and evenness.
Wrinkles and fine lines are the first signs of skin ageing. Crow's feet and forehead lines soften as collagen rebuilds. Radiofrequency does not fill a wrinkle the way an injection would: it acts on the structure of the skin, which densifies and smooths the surface from within.
Texture benefits from the same mechanism. Denser skin looks smoother, and the complexion gains radiance. These changes are measured over several weeks, not over a single session.
Radiofrequency can also target the appearance of certain marks and irregularities. The appearance of acne scars and stretch marks may soften as collagen rebuilds.
Enlarged pores benefit from the tightening of the surrounding tissue. The improvement is in appearance: radiofrequency aims to reduce the visibility of these irregularities.
Radiofrequency is not limited to the face. On the body, the same heat targets areas where the skin has loosened and where cellulite marks the surface. The stomach after a pregnancy, the inner thighs, the arms and the knees are among the most requested areas.
Radiofrequency targets the appearance of cellulite by acting on the deep layers of the skin. The heat stimulates collagen and can help smooth the dimpled look at the surface. Results are gradual and vary from person to person, according to skin type and the degree of laxity.
On the body, radiofrequency often pairs with cavitation. Cavitation targets localised fat deposits while radiofrequency tightens the skin covering them. This combination aims at both body contouring and skin firmness, on a protocol defined during the consultation.
The pass of the handpiece resembles a slow, warm massage. This movement supports circulation in the treated area and accompanies natural drainage. Body radiofrequency remains non-invasive, with no needles and no time off.
One consultation is enough to know whether your areas of laxity respond to radiofrequency.
Schedule your consultationRadiofrequency skin tightening is a non-invasive technology, used in aesthetic care for over twenty years. The radiofrequency device emits radio waves that generate controlled heat in the deep layers of the skin, without altering the surface.
As the electromagnetic waves pass through the dermis, they cause the water molecules in the tissue to vibrate, which raises the temperature of the deep layers. This heat stimulates the fibroblasts, the cells that synthesise collagen and elastin, two proteins that determine skin firmness and elasticity.
Two effects occur. The existing collagen fibres contract, which can produce a tightening effect noticeable quickly. Then the fibroblasts trigger the production of new collagen, over several weeks. It is this second mechanism that produces lasting firming.
Radiofrequency does not transform your skin in one session. It restarts a process your skin carries out on its own.
Radiofrequency does not pierce the skin. No needles, no anaesthetic, no social downtime. The handpiece glides over the skin coated with a conductive gel, and a diffuse warm sensation, comparable to a warm massage, is generally described.
You resume your activities immediately after the session. Slight redness may appear on the treated area, but it usually fades within a few hours.
Our skin-firming technologies do not target the same concerns. External radiofrequency suits mild to moderate laxity, when the skin needs to be tightened gently, with no needles and no time off. Here is how our professionals guide the choice.
HIFU uses high-intensity focused ultrasound to reach the layers beneath the dermis. It is indicated when laxity is more pronounced: a sagging jaw, a double chin, a drooping eyelid. For the eye contour, hollow dark circles and puffiness, HIFU is also the approach we recommend. Where radiofrequency tightens, HIFU lifts.
Microneedling RF combines micro-needles and radiofrequency. The needles deliver the energy directly into the deep layers, producing a more intense remodelling than surface radiofrequency. It is the option chosen for marked acne scars and pronounced texture irregularities.
Our team compares the options with you and recommends the one that suits your skin.
Book an evaluationA radiofrequency session takes place in a treatment room, with no particular preparation on your part and no recovery afterward.
Everything begins with a consultation. Your professional analyses the skin, assesses the degree of skin laxity and checks for contraindications. This step determines the areas to treat, the intensity applied and the number of sessions to plan.
The session then unfolds in three stages:
The number of sessions is determined during the consultation, according to the quality of your skin and your goals. Radiofrequency produces cumulative results: each session builds on the previous one, and collagen keeps rebuilding between appointments.
Maintenance sessions then extend the benefits. Radiofrequency also pairs well with our facials, which prepare the skin and prolong the radiance achieved.
Radiofrequency results are gradual: they follow the pace of your skin. Le Spa Infinima documents its before and after results in photographs for each medical-aesthetic technology, including radiofrequency.
A tightening effect may be noticeable from the first session, linked to the contraction of the existing collagen fibres. This is not the final result: the rebuilding of collagen unfolds over several weeks, and it is what produces lasting firming.
Results vary according to age, skin type, lifestyle and the degree of laxity at the start. Radiofrequency pairs with other treatments to broaden the result:
Radiofrequency is for people with mild to moderate skin laxity, on the face, neck, décolleté or body. It suits all skin types and is performed year-round.
Certain contraindications are reviewed during the consultation:
Radiofrequency, offered at our Place Ste-Foy location, aims to firm the skin of the face and body alike, with no needles and no time off. Our team assesses your skin during a consultation and builds a protocol tailored to your goals. and develop a treatment plan tailored to your goals.

It often pairs with cavitation to act on both the silhouette and firmness. For a double chin, HIFU is what we recommend instead. The consultation guides you toward the right approach.
Each technology has its area of relevance. We prefer to guide you toward the one that suits your skin.
