Description
6 sessions of INDIBA on the eye area. 448 kHz radiofrequency applied specifically to the periocular area.
What it involves
INDIBA is a radiofrequency device that works at a fixed frequency of 448 kHz. That figure is not a sales detail: it is what defines the technology. At that frequency the current passes through the tissue, moving ions on both sides of the cell membrane, and the main effect is not thermal but one of exchange.
It works in two modes. The capacitive mode acts on the more superficial, more water-rich tissues—skin, soft muscle—; the resistive mode concentrates on the higher-resistance tissues—tendon, bone, fibrous tissue—and reaches deeper. The practitioner alternates between the two according to the aim.
What is best documented is the increase in local blood flow and temperature, and the effect on drainage and oedema. That is why it is so widely used in physiotherapy and tissue recovery, and why it fits particularly well after surgery.
Who it is for
Puffiness around the eyes, a tired look and poor-quality skin in the periocular area. Also as support after blepharoplasty, when the swelling is slow to go down.
What a session is like
A specific, smaller head is used, and the work around the eye is very gentle, without going onto the eyelid. You feel a faint warmth. The session is short and comfortable.
What to expect
The effect on puffiness is usually the first thing you notice. The work on the quality of the skin around the eyes is more gradual.
What it does NOT do
It does not correct a herniated fat pad or excess eyelid skin: that is surgery. Nor does it remove dark circles of pigmentary or structural origin.
When it cannot be done. It is not used if you have a pacemaker or another implanted electronic device, over metal osteosynthesis hardware depending on the area, during pregnancy, or over an area with thrombosis, active infection or a tumour. We check all of this at the prior assessment.
What the package includes
- 6 sessions of INDIBA on the eye area.
- Redeemable by appointment at the clinic. Valid for 12 months from purchase.
Whether it is right for you is always decided at a prior assessment in the clinic. If the treatment does not suit you, we will tell you and find one that does.
