All About Attiva for Skin Tightening: Benefits, Targeted Areas and Results

Attiva® Subdermal Induced Heat (S.I.H.) Technology is a culmination of five years of dedicated research underpinned by three international patents. Designed with physicians in mind, it seeks to provide a highly effective and secure method for addressing the visible signs of aging without the complexities of surgery. This advanced technology promises significant improvements in skin quality, offering patients the benefits of no downtime, absence of scarring, and instantaneous results. By setting a new standard in the non-surgical approach to treating loose, aging skin, Attiva® S.I.H. Technology marks a significant milestone in aesthetic medicine. It offers a transformative experience for those looking to rejuvenate their appearance safely and effectively.

What is Attiva?

Attiva’s Subdermal Induced Heat (S.I.H.) technology is a sophisticated dermatological treatment method focused on the non-invasive tightening and rejuvenation of skin. This approach harnesses radiofrequency energy to precisely target subdermal tissue precisely, generating controlled heating that stimulates the body’s natural collagen and elastin production mechanisms. Collagen and elastin are critical components of the skin’s structure, providing firmness, elasticity, and the ability to recover from stretch and stress.

The S.I.H. technology operates on the principle of inducing thermal damage within the dermis layer while sparing the epidermis, or the outer layer of skin, from excessive heat exposure. This selective heating is crucial because it triggers the skin’s natural healing processes without causing surface burns or scars, making the treatment safe for all skin types and colors.

Attiva’s effectiveness lies in its precise modulation of radiofrequency energy to achieve uniform heating of subdermal tissue layers. This uniform heating is achieved through the modulation of different types of currents—continuous, fractional, and sequential—allowing for a complete mastery of results with high precision. Initially, the soft tissue contracts in response to the heat, leading to immediate tightening. Over time, the thermal stimulation results in the shrinkage of the collagen structure within the dermis, further enhancing skin tightness. Moreover, this process stimulates fibroblast activity, a critical factor in synthesizing new collagen and elastin fibers, leading to sustained improvement in skin quality and firmness.

The approach provides a dual benefit: immediate visible tightening without surgeries and long-term skin rejuvenation through enhanced collagen production. 

Benefits of Attiva Radiofrequency Treatments

The benefits of Attiva Radiofrequency Treatments are numerous and cater to a wide array of skin concerns, making it a versatile option for non-invasive skin rejuvenation:

• Immediate Results: Patients often notice a tightening effect immediately following the treatment, which continues to improve as new collagen forms.
• Non-Invasive: Unlike surgical options, Attiva treatments are non-invasive, requiring no incisions or injections, minimizing risks and complications.
• Painless Procedure: The treatments are generally painless, with many patients reporting a warm, soothing sensation.
• No Downtime: One of the key advantages of Attiva treatments is the minimal downtime, allowing patients to return to their daily activities immediately after the session.
• Versatility: Attiva can be used on various body parts, including the face, neck, arms, abdomen, thighs, and buttocks, addressing concerns like sagging skin, wrinkles, and cellulite.
• Long-Term Improvements: The stimulation of collagen production leads to long-term improvements in skin quality, elasticity, and firmness.
• Safe for All Skin Types: The technology is safe for all skin types and colors, offering a universal solution for skin rejuvenation.
• Customizable Treatments: Attiva treatments can be customized to address specific concerns and areas, ensuring tailored results that meet individual patient needs.
• Wrinkle Reduction: By enhancing collagen levels, fine lines and wrinkles become less noticeable, leading to smoother, more youthful-looking skin.
• Improved Skin Texture: The treatment can improve skin texture, promoting the growth of healthier skin cells for a smoother and more even complexion.
• Cellulite Treatment: Attiva effectively targets cellulite, providing a non-surgical option for cellulite reduction that has been challenging to treat with other modalities.

The Procedure: What to Expect

Attiva radiofrequency treatment begins with a consultation where a healthcare professional evaluates your skin and discusses your aesthetic goals. 

You’ll be comfortably seated or lying down during the procedure, depending on the area being treated. The practitioner will apply a handheld device to your skin, which emits radiofrequency energy. This process heats the subdermal layers of your skin, targeting the areas where collagen production can be stimulated without affecting the surface. Despite this deep penetration, the procedure is generally described as painless. Patients often report feeling a warm sensation, indicative of the radiofrequency energy at work, but this is typically well-tolerated and not considered uncomfortable.

The session can last anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size and number of treated areas. One of the notable aspects of Attiva treatment is its lack of downtime. Immediately after the session, you can resume most of your daily activities. Some individuals might notice a mild redness or warmth in the treated areas, but these effects are temporary and usually subside within a few hours.
