This technology targets the deeper layers of skin, creating effective heat without causing damage to the surface, leaving your skin rejuvenated and youthful.
Whether you’re looking to restore skin tone, reduce wrinkles, or improve skin texture, ATTIVA iRF offers a safe, effective solution to achieve the results you’ve been seeking.
How ATTIVA Works
The ATTIVA iRF (Intelligent Radiofrequency) system harnesses cutting-edge technology to deliver precise, targeted treatments for the face and body. Using a combination of continuous, fractional, and sequential radiofrequency currents, ATTIVA uniformly heats the subdermal layers of tissue, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin for smoother, more youthful skin.
Precise Temperature Control
ATTIVA’s FDA-approved device is equipped with advanced features for optimal safety and effectiveness. It utilizes a highly responsive thermal imaging camera that continuously monitors skin temperature throughout the treatment, ensuring precise control over both the subcutaneous and skin surface temperatures. This real-time temperature regulation minimizes risk and enhances the results.
Double Temperature Control for Precision
The ATTIVA handpiece is designed with a microcannula and Double Temperature Control, offering continuous monitoring of both the internal probe (beneath the skin) and the surface temperature (via the external thermal control camera). This dual-monitoring system allows our skilled practitioners to carefully adjust the device to target specific areas with optimal thermal diffusion, addressing your unique skin concerns and ensuring the best possible outcome.
With ATTIVA’s sophisticated technology and our expert team, you can experience customized, effective treatments with minimal discomfort and no downtime.

Procedure Information:
ATTIVA utilizes the use of a flexible microcannula to administer anesthetic via injection makes the procedure more comfortable. Once the skin is anesthetized, a thin electrode emitting radiofrequency is applied slowly and carefully for a specific amount of time, depending on the area being treated.
The procedure is closely monitored by a camera, which measures the skin's surface temperature to ensure its safety. Following the treatment, there is no visible change to the skin's appearance, although some individuals may experience mild swelling or bruising. Over the course of 4 to 6 weeks, the lifting effect becomes more noticeable and continues to improve as new collagen is produced. One or more treatments may be required to achieve individual results, with the option to repeat the procedure every 4 to 6 months.
Post Treatment Information:
One of the key benefits of ATTIVA is the minimal downtime required after treatment. Most patients experience only mild swelling and bruising, which typically resolve within 1 to 2 weeks. The treated areas may feel tender or slightly sore immediately after the procedure, but this discomfort usually subsides within 24 hours, allowing you to resume normal activities.
What to Expect:
- Tenderness & Discomfort: The treated area may feel tight or sore. If necessary, you can manage any discomfort with over-the-counter pain relievers like Tylenol. If you experience significant pain or any concerns, please contact our office right away.
- Swelling & Bruising: Initial swelling and bruising are common and may last 1 to 2 weeks. However, the lifting effect from ATTIVA begins to show immediately, with the final, more refined results appearing over the next 3 to 4 months as collagen and elastin remodel in the skin.
Post-Treatment Guidelines:
- Sun Exposure: Avoid direct sunlight and excessive heat for at least 24 hours after treatment. This includes staying away from tanning beds, hot tubs, saunas, and sunbathing.
- Skin Care: Keep the treated area clean and moisturized to support healing and prevent infection. For at least 24 hours, refrain from using makeup or skincare products containing harsh chemicals, exfoliants, or active ingredients.
- Physical Activity: Refrain from vigorous exercise or strenuous activities for at least 24 hours post-treatment to avoid irritation or complications.
- Hydration: Drink plenty of water to help with your recovery process.
- Gentle Care: Be gentle when washing or touching the treated area, avoiding any rubbing or scratching that could irritate the skin.
By following these post-treatment instructions, you can help ensure a smooth recovery and achieve the best possible results from your ATTIVA treatment. If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to our office for guidance.
Frequently Asked Questions
ATTIVA utilizes subdermal induced heat (S.I.H.) technology. This patented technology utilizes the modulation of various radiofrequency (RF) current types, including continuous, fractional, and sequential currents. The ATTIVA treatment evenly heats under the skin using controlled yet potent RF energy. This heat causes an instantaneous contraction of loose collagen fibers and stimulates the fibroblast activity boosting elastin production and the synthesis of new collagen. Collagen and elastin are pivotal for skin firmness, elasticity, and thicker, firmer skin.
ATTIVA safely and effectively heats under the skin to stimulate collagen synthesis without causing damage to the surface. Other treatments can induce intentional injury to the skin's surface, resulting in redness, scars, and prolonged downtime.
Depending on your goals, one or more treatments are typically required to achieve satisfactory results. ATTIVA treatments can be repeated every 4 to 6 months.

After the ATTIVA treatment, some patients report tenderness, bruising, or swelling in the areas treated which typically subsides within 7-14 days.
ATTIVA Treatment times can vary based on the treatment area, but one area typically takes about 30 minutes or less.
RF Microneedling delivers radiofrequency energy using tiny needles that intentionally injure the skin's surface. ATTIVA can generate a significant amount of heat without causing injury to the surface of the skin.
