What is Collagen Wave?

Collagen Wave is a non-surgical radiofrequency skin tightening treatment. Designed by Dr Saleh in 2007, it delivers calibrated 1.56 MHz energy deep into the dermis to stimulate the body's own collagen production.

Non-ablative. Non-invasive. No downtime. Suitable for all skin types — and the results build over 6 months and last up to two years.

— Why Collagen Wave

Not all radiofrequency is equal.

The market is full of cheap radiofrequency devices, handheld kiosks and unregulated machines — most working only at the surface. Collagen Wave is different in every way that matters.

Monopolar Radiofrequency

Energy penetrates up to 20mm — through skin and into subcutaneous tissue. Surface-only devices cannot reach this depth.

1.56 MHz Delivery

Calibrated low-frequency waveform that drives heat deep into the dermis where collagen and elastin actually live.

Designed by Dr Saleh, 2007

Originally engineered as a non-surgical alternative to a facelift. Refined and clinically used worldwide ever since.

Visible From Session One

Existing collagen contracts under heat — immediate firming you can see and feel. The long-term result builds over six months.

Collagen Wave · How It Works
02 / 15

Energy that reaches
the layer that lifts.

Radiofrequency at 1.56 MHz travels past the surface and into the dermis — the structural layer where collagen lives. The skin warms to 41–42°C: warm enough to wake your fibroblasts, gentle enough to leave the surface untouched.

— Four Stages

How collagen rebuilds itself.

One outcome: firmer, lifted, restructured skin.

01
Targeted Heating

Dermal heat at 41–42°C.

Monopolar RF energy heats the deep dermis precisely. Existing collagen fibres contract — creating an immediate firming effect you can see and feel.

02
Controlled Response

Fibroblast activation.

The controlled heat signals fibroblasts — the cells responsible for skin structure — to begin producing fresh collagen and elastin from within the dermis.

03
Early Remodelling

~28 days: collagen forms.

Within 2–4 weeks new collagen fibres begin to lay down. Skin feels firmer to the touch — the foundation of long-term lift.

04
Structural Change

6–12 weeks: lift visible.

New collagen reorganises and integrates into the existing skin matrix. Lift, tone, and definition develop fully — improving for up to six months.

The treatment is the spark — your skin builds the rest.
— Where it works

Décolleté to forehead.

Tightens and lifts wherever the skin is showing its age — without needles, surgery, or downtime.

01

Forehead & Brow

Tightens forehead skin and gently lifts the brow line — opens the eyes for a more rested look.

02

Eye Area

Thickens and strengthens the delicate skin around the eyes, softening fine lines and crow's feet.

03

Cheeks

Lifts and re-contours the cheeks — restores definition that volume loss has eroded over time.

04

Jawline & Jowls

Improved jaw definition and tightening of the jowl area — the non-surgical answer to lower-face laxity.

05

Neck

Firms the skin of the neck and smooths horizontal lines — the area that ages first and shows it most.

06

Décolleté

Smooths crepey chest skin and softens the vertical lines that form between the breasts with age.

— See it in action

The wand, at work.

Radiofrequency delivered through the handpiece — a warm, comfortable treatment that feels like a hot stone massage, with no needles and no downtime.

In Motion

The energy,
where it works.

Watch monopolar radiofrequency pass through the surface and gently heat the deeper dermis — where your own collagen is stimulated to rebuild.

— Results Timeline

When to expect results.

Visible from session one — and continuing to build for up to six months. Effects can last up to two years.

Immediately After

Visible firming.

Collagen contracts under the heat — skin feels tighter and looks lifted within minutes of the treatment finishing.

Days 1–7

Settling.

Any erythema fades. Makeup back on the same day. The lifted appearance settles into a clean, rested look.

Weeks 2–4

New collagen forms.

Fibroblasts begin laying down fresh collagen and elastin in the dermis. Skin feels denser, more resilient.

Weeks 6–12

Structural change.

New fibres reorganise and integrate. Lift and definition develop fully — the visible transformation arrives.

Up to 2 Years

Long-lasting.

Improvements continue subtly for up to six months. Effects can last two years — maintenance treatments protect the result.

— Post GLP-1 Protocol

"Ozempic face" is real.
And it can be treated.

GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Mounjaro and Retatrutide have transformed weight loss. But rapid fat loss often leaves the face hollow, the jawline soft, and the neck looser than before. This is a structural change. It needs a structural solution.

Collagen Wave delivers radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis — triggering your skin's own collagen response. The result rebuilds firmness from the inside out.

— Expert Opinions

What the experts say.

Radiofrequency has earned its place as the first-line non-surgical option for skin tightening — when the depth is right, the structural change is real.
Dr A. MulhollandCosmetic Surgeon · Peer-reviewer on RF safety
What I tell clients is simple: the treatment is the spark, their own collagen does the work. That's why the result keeps improving for months after.
Matt NewberyAesthetic Practitioner · Hornchurch, Essex
For post-weight-loss laxity in particular — especially with GLP-1 medications now so common — RF skin tightening is the most important tool we have outside surgery.

Good to Know

Questions, answered.

Is the treatment painful?
Not at all — there are no needles and no downtime. Most clients find Collagen Wave warm and deeply relaxing, like a hot-stone facial.
Is there any downtime?
None. You can return to your day straight away; skin may look lightly flushed for an hour or so.
When will I see results?
There's often an immediate tightening, but the real change is collagen rebuilding over the following weeks — best seen across a course, and continuing to improve for up to three months.
How many sessions will I need?
Typically a course of six hourly sessions, then maintenance. Matt tailors the plan to your skin at consultation.
Is it suitable for all skin tones?
Yes. Radiofrequency works beneath the surface and is safe and effective on every skin tone.
Before & Aftercare

Everything you need to know.

Collagen Wave uses radiofrequency to gently warm the deeper layers of the skin and stimulate your own collagen. It's comfortable and needs no real downtime — but because it's an energy-based treatment, there are a few things worth knowing first.

Is it right for you?

Collagen Wave suits most skin types and is a gentle way to firm, lift and improve tone over a course. Because it works with radiofrequency energy, there are a few times we'd plan around it or check first. Please let me know before your appointment if any of these apply:

  • You're pregnant or breastfeeding
  • You have a pacemaker, defibrillator or any other electronic implant
  • You have metal pins, plates or implants in the area we'd be treating
  • You have an active cold sore, skin infection or broken skin in the area
  • You have an active flare of eczema, psoriasis or rosacea where we'd be working
  • You have melasma or are prone to pigmentation — radiofrequency heat can trigger it, so we'll always assess this carefully first
  • You've had filler or other injectables in the area recently — we'll simply time it right
  • You're having chemotherapy or radiotherapy, or have a condition that affects healing

None of these are necessarily a no. Most just mean we time things differently, or check with your GP first. If you're not sure, ask me.

Aftercare

There's no real downtime with Collagen Wave. Your skin may feel warm and look a little flushed straight afterwards, like mild sun exposure — this usually settles within a few hours. To get the most from your treatment:

  • Keep your skin well hydrated and drink plenty of water — radiofrequency works best on hydrated skin
  • Skip hot baths, saunas, steam rooms and intense exercise for 24 hours
  • Leave active skincare — retinol, acids and strong exfoliants — for two to three days
  • Wear a daily SPF; your fresh collagen is worth protecting
  • Otherwise carry on as normal — makeup is absolutely fine the same day

Results build gradually as new collagen forms over the following weeks, and look their best across a course. I'll talk you through your plan at your appointment.
