BODY TREATMENTS · HAWTHORN, MELBOURNE
WHAT ARE BODY SKIN TREATMENTS
Body skin treatments focus on areas where skin can start to look thin, crepey or uneven. That makes them one of the more targeted body treatments for skin quality beyond the face. Radiofrequency energy warms the deeper layers of the skin, helping it look firmer and smoother over time.
People come to us for body skin treatments in Melbourne for many reasons, from crepey skin on the chest to stretch marks after pregnancy. Results develop progressively, with many clients noticing smoother, firmer-looking skin within a few weeks.
Because body skin is thinner in some areas and thicker in others, we tailor the settings to each area. Our Hawthorn clinic is small by design, so every plan is built around you. Before every treatment, we carry out a skin assessment to confirm it suits your skin and goals.
HOW WE CAN HELP
Body skin treatments can target a range of concerns. Results depend on your skin and the area being treated, but they are commonly used for the following concerns.
The neck and décolletage are often where sun and time show first, with skin starting to look thin or crepey. Radiofrequency can help this skin look smoother and feel firmer over a course of sessions.
Hands can show changes in texture and firmness as the skin thins over time. Treatment can help them look smoother and more even, so they keep pace with the care you give your face.
Stretch marks on the stomach, along with surgical and other scars, can look softer and less noticeable over a course of sessions. Newer marks tend to respond more readily, and we will talk you through what to expect for yours.
After pregnancy or weight changes, skin on the stomach can look looser or uneven in texture. Radiofrequency can help it look smoother and firmer, while body contouring adds targeted ultrasound to refine the look of stubborn areas beneath the skin.
The Process
Every appointment follows the same structure, tailoring the settings to the area being treated. Here is what each visit looks like.
We begin by assessing each area and discussing your concerns, including any past treatments and how your skin usually heals. We then tailor the radiofrequency settings to the area and its needs.
We cleanse the treatment area and remove any residual product, preparing the skin for even coverage.
The handpiece moves slowly across the treatment area. Most clients describe a gentle warmth that builds as treatment goes on.
The skin may look a little pink for a few hours once treatment is complete. Before you leave, we explain your aftercare and what to expect.
Body skin treatments deliver their best results across a course of sessions. We check the progress of each area at every visit and refine the settings based on what we see.

BEFORE AND AFTER
A little preparation makes a real difference to how your skin responds. These are the things worth knowing.
Most clients describe a gentle warmth that builds during treatment. Sensation varies from person to person, so we check in with you throughout and adjust as needed.
Most clients see meaningful improvement over around four sessions per area, spaced about a week apart. Stretch marks and older scars can need a longer course, and we will give you a specific recommendation during your consultation.
Very little. Any warmth or redness typically settles within a few hours. Most clients return to their usual routine the same day.
We treat the neck, décolletage, hands, forearms and stomach, as well as scars on other areas. If you have another area in mind, ask us at your consultation.
Over a course of treatment, stretch marks can look softer and less noticeable. Newer marks tend to respond more readily than older, silvery ones.
