Answers to Common Questions

What is the technology behind FotoFacial RF Pro®?
FotoFacial RF Pro® uses elōs™ technology, a combination of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), Diode Laser, and RadioFrequency (RF) energy to achieve the optimal degree of improvement to all components of targeted skin. This treatment has no downtime when improving redness, rosacea, pinkness, spider veins, pores and texture.

Why is elōs™ different?

Because of the following reasons:

Radio Frequency is a highly controllable energy heat source, working synergistically with optical energy
Enables the use of light energy at a level that is safe for all skin types
No additional risk to the epidermis
Precisely targets areas "preheated" by optical energy
Contact cooling on skin's surface provides increased comfort and safety

How long will the results last?
