About Agnes RF
Agnes RF employs precise, micro-insulated needling that’s gentle enough to treat eye bags, double chins, eye wrinkles, syringoma, acne and blackheads.
Radio frequency – the technology used in the Agnes handpiece – delivers heat to the tissue below the epidermis, stimulating collagen production and contracting fibers to tighten the skin.
The treatment is completely painless, has no downtime and provides an even result on sagging skin, fine lines and wrinkles. The depth the heat achieves helps firm, tighten and lift, while also reinvigorating skin for a healthy glow.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Agnes RF?
Agnes is a minimally invasive radiofrequency (RF) device that delivers precise, micro-insulated needles that help RF energy penetrate the skin. RF is a safe form of energy that can improve cosmetic concerns by gently bulk heating the skin. This thermal energy increases the production of collagen and elastin, restructures the way that collagen sits in the skin, and encourages cell turnover. The result is firmer, tighter and more youthful-looking skin.
Am I a candidate for Agnes RF skin rejuvenation?
The Agnes RF device was initially created to treat stubborn undereye bags caused by stress, aging or genetics. Agnes is a versatile device that can improve several concerns, including acne, puffy lower eyelid pads, wrinkles, scars, enlarged pores, undereye bags, sagging skin and uneven skin texture.
What happens at my initial consultation?
Our team will take you through a complete skin assessment and address your chief concerns. We will then recommend a series of treatments with our skin rejuvenation treatments, Agnes RF.
How should I prepare for my treatment?
You absolutely can prepare for a more successful treatment by following these steps:
- Drink lots of water to be well hydrated.
- Avoid sun exposure and tanning for 2 weeks prior.
- Use sunscreen of at least SPF 30 on all areas you are having treated.
- Avoid retinol-based products and tretinoin products at least 1 week prior.
- Avoid exfoliating treatments and at-home exfoliators at least 1 week prior
How long does a treatment take?
Each skin rejuvenation procedure usually takes about 45 to 60 minutes for the full face or about 10 minutes for a smaller targeted area. Our team will go over treatment time with you during your consultation.
How many treatments do I need?
We will assess your skin during your consultation. Depending on the treatment area, the condition of your skin and the results you’re seeking, we will recommend between one to three treatments.
How many treatments do I need?
Your post-treatment recovery will depend on the strength of the technology we use to get the results you’re looking for. Agnes RF may cause some slight bruising in the treatment area.
What post-treatment care is required?
Your skin may feel quite dry for several days following your treatment. Be prepared to keep your skin well hydrated with a barrier cream and make sure you drink lots of water. You should avoid exposure to the sun for several days following treatment. If you must be out in the sun, wear sunscreen of at least SPF 50. We will recommend a course of skin care products if necessary.
