QUANTUMRF
Subdermal Radiofrequency Skin Tightening
ABOUT YOUR TREATMENT
QuantumRF delivers radiofrequency energy beneath the skin surface (subdermal) to tighten tissue and stimulate collagen production. This internal approach creates tissue contraction that mimics surgical lifting — without incisions or general anesthesia.

QuantumRF treats:
- • Loose facial skin
- • Sagging neck & jowls
- • Double chin
- • Abdominal laxity
- • Arm laxity
- • Thigh laxity
- • Post-weight loss skin
- • Body contouring
Most areas require only 1 treatment. Results continue improving for 3–6 months as collagen rebuilds.
📋 IMPORTANT — COMPRESSION GARMENT
For body treatments (abdomen, arms, thighs), you will need a compression garment to wear for 1–2 weeks post-treatment. Your provider will discuss this during consultation and recommend the appropriate garment before your appointment.
2 WEEKS BEFORE
- • Avoid prolonged sun exposure and tanning
- • Stop smoking (impairs healing and collagen production)
- • Stay well-hydrated
- • Inform your provider of all medications and supplements
- • Purchase compression garment if treating body areas
1 WEEK BEFORE
- • Stop blood thinners if medically approved (aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, vitamin E)
- • No alcohol for 48 hours before treatment
- • No new skincare products on treatment area
- • Arrange for someone to drive you home (recommended)
- • Plan for 3–5 days of reduced activity
DAY OF TREATMENT
- • Arrive with clean skin — no makeup, lotions, or deodorant on treatment area
- • Eat a light meal before your appointment
- • Wear loose, comfortable clothing (button-up if treating face/neck)
- • Bring your compression garment for body treatments
- • Local anesthesia will be administered (not general — you will be awake)
- • Treatment takes 45–90 minutes depending on area
WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER
- • Swelling and tenderness in the treated area (most significant first 48 hours)
- • Mild bruising is possible
- • Numbness or tingling in the treated area (temporary)
- • Small entry point marks (resolve within a few days)
- • Immediate tissue contraction — you may notice tightening right away
AFTERCARE — FIRST 48 HOURS
- • Wear compression garment as directed (body areas — 24/7 except for showering)
- • Apply ice packs 20 minutes on / 20 minutes off for swelling
- • Take prescribed pain medication as directed
- • Keep entry points clean and dry
- • No exercise or strenuous activity
- • Sleep elevated if face/neck was treated
- • Stay hydrated
AFTERCARE — DAYS 3–14
- • Continue wearing compression garment for body areas (1–2 weeks as directed)
- • Light walking is encouraged — promotes circulation and healing
- • No heavy lifting, running, or intense exercise for 2 weeks
- • Gentle showering is fine — avoid hot water on treated area
- • No hot tubs, saunas, swimming pools, or baths
- • Swelling and bruising will gradually resolve
- • Numbness may persist for days to weeks — this is normal
AFTERCARE — WEEKS 2–6
- • Most normal activities can resume by week 2
- • Resume exercise gradually (start light, build up)
- • Continue SPF 30+ daily on facial treatments
- • Tightening becomes progressively more visible
- • Follow up with your provider at 4–6 weeks
- • Discuss whether a second session is beneficial
