Our Treatment
RF Skin Tightening for Eyes
Refresh your under eye area! Radiofrequency gently heats your skin to trigger your body’s natural response to produce new collagen.
The new collagen fibres are tight, dense and neatly organized giving you tighter, younger-looking skin that dramatically diminishes undereye bags, dark circles, and fine lines. Eyelid skin is also tightened for a lifted refresh.
As new collagen fibres are produced and your skin cycle continues over a few weeks, your results become increasingly visible. We recommend about 2-4 treatments for the most long-lasting and dramatic results.
Your treatment will begin with a consultation with one of our expert skin technicians to provide you with customized information for your unique skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes dark circles and under eye bags?
Dark circles and under-eye bags can be attributed to a combination of factors:
1. Aging: As we age, the skin becomes thinner and loses collagen and fat, making the reddish-blue blood vessels under the eyes more noticeable.
2. Genetics: Some individuals inherit a tendency to develop dark circles or bags under their eyes.
3. Lack of Sleep: Insufficient sleep can lead to paler skin, allowing dark tissues and blood vessels beneath your skin to show.
4. Fluid Retention: Various factors, such as high salt diet, allergies, or hormone levels, can cause fluid to accumulate in the under-eye area, leading to puffiness.
5. Sun Exposure: Overexposure to the sun can prompt the body to produce more melanin, the pigment that provides skin with colour, potentially darkening the skin around the eyes.
7. Lifestyle Factors: Smoking and dehydration can contribute to the appearance of dark circles.
How does the RF Eye Rejuvenation treatment work?
TempSure RF emits radiofrequency waves, which generate heat when absorbed by the skin. This heat stimulates collagen production, leading to tighter, smoother, even-toned, and more youthful-looking skin.
- Improved collagen and elastin production makes a big difference under the eyes. the appearance of bags under the eyes is improved by providing better skin support, which smooths it out and lymphatic drainage to fight fluid retention.
- Increased blood circulation from the heated dermis reduces dark circles, as it promotes lymphatic drainage and diminishes that pooling of blood which caused discoloration.
- Tightened skin smooths out the appearance of fine lines and helps reduce crow’s feet. This is what client are mostly looking for. That’s why the RF eye treatment is called Crow’s feet RF Skin Tightening on our website.
- Drooping eyelids due to aging are also a result of decreased collagen and elastin.RF tightens the existing collagen fibers in the eyelids and encourages new collagen elastin production for better skin ‘bounce back’.

What should I expect during this treatment?
Upon arrival, you will check-in and have a consultation with our skin technician to discuss your specific needs. After removing any jewelry, you can lie back and relax in our comfortable treatment space.
The skin technician will cleanse your skin and apply a hydrating gel, which ensures the radiofrequency applicator glides smoothly. As the radiofrequency energy is emitted from the device, you’ll feel a gentle warming of the skin. Many describe this sensation as akin to a warm massage. You may notice some immediate skin ‘pinking’ after the treatment, but this typically subsides quickly.
The treatment activates the skin’s natural cycle, prompting it to rejuvenate and produce more collagen. Essentially, this cycle involves the skin repairing and regenerating itself, leading to tighter and denser skin. As a result, dark circles and fine lines may reduce noticeably over the following weeks. For optimal, long-lasting outcomes, we recommend a series of three or more treatments, spaced between 10 to 30 days apart.
How long does a TempSure RF Eye Rejuvenation session last?
A typical session lasts about 30 minutes to treat both eyes, depending on the area being treated. You can also treat your full face and neck to tighten skin and contour under your chin. Read more here.
Are there any side effects?
Some might notice a slight reddening and swelling of the treated area post-procedure, a result of the increased skin temperature during the session. These effects typically fade that same day, allowing you to get back to your regular routine right away without any limitations.
The swelling right after the treatment can briefly improve the undereye’s appearance. This immediate puffiness fills in fine lines and provide a fuller, rejuvenated look, offering a short-lived youthful boost to the undereye region.
However, the most significant, long-lasting results, which come from the natural production of new collagen, typically become apparent in the 3 to 6 weeks following the treatment.
Is there any downtime after the treatment?
No, TempSure RF is a “lunchtime procedure.” Most guests return to their normal activities immediately after their session.
When will I see results from my RF Eye Rejuvenation treatment?
After an RF (radiofrequency) eye treatment, many individuals begin to notice initial improvements within the first week due to the immediate contraction of collagen fibers.
The immediate edema (swelling) post-treatment will temporarily enhance the appearance of the undereye area, so plan to go out that evening! This short-term swelling can smooth out fine lines and give a “plumped” look, making the undereye area appear more rejuvenated and youthful for a brief period. However, the most significant, long-lasting results, which come from the natural production of new collagen, typically become apparent in the 3 to 6 weeks following the treatment.
Results can vary based on individual factors, including skin type, age, and the severity of concerns being addressed.
For optimal results, a series of treatments may be recommended, and the cumulative effects will become more pronounced with each session. We usually recommend starting with a set of 3-5 treatments, tailored to your specific skin needs by our laser technician.
Space these treatments 10-30 days apart to maximize the continuous collagen production and skin-firming benefits from each activated skin cycle, leading to significant and enduring enhancements to your skin.
How many RF Eye treatments will I need?
We typically suggest beginning with a series of 3-5 treatments, customized by your laser technician based on your unique skin requirements. Ideally, treatments should be scheduled every 10-30 days. This timing optimizes the benefits of ongoing collagen production and skin tightening through each activated skin cycle, resulting in profound and lasting skin improvements.
What is a Skin Cycle?
It’s the monthly rhythm of our skin, where cells grow, produce collagen, mature, and shed. Radiofrequency treatments, like TempSure, initiate a skin cycle that boosts collagen. With each RF-stimulated cycle, visible enhancements in skin density, tone, and texture are evident. The transformative impacts of these treatments grow increasingly noticeable over time.
Due to our skin’s natural regeneration cycle, achieving optimal results requires multiple TempSure treatments spaced out over several months. This approach continually rejuvenates the skin, leveraging its natural processes, ensuring cumulative improvements in firmness and appearance. Your laser technician will devise a plan focused on achieving your desired results, making the most of each treatment in line with your skin’s unique rhythm.
How long do the results last?
Results vary, but many users enjoy the benefits of the treatment for several months to a year. Occasional maintenance sessions can prolong the effects.
Is the procedure painful?
No, most guests find the TempSure RF treatment comfortable and soothing. The procedure involves a warming sensation as the RF waves are emitted, but it is well-tolerated.
