ATTIVA RADIOFREQUENCY TREATMENT

in Boston, MA

At Regeneris Cosmetic Surgery in Boston, MA, Attiva treatment offers patients a minimally invasive way to tighten skin and refresh their appearance. Blending the precision of science with the artistry of beauty, our team harnesses radiofrequency energy to smooth, firm, and rejuvenate the skin. It’s skin tightening reimagined for those who want meaningful results without major surgery.

What Is Attiva Radiofrequency Treatment?

Attiva is a minimally invasive procedure that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy delivered beneath the skin to stimulate collagen production and firm lax tissue. Unlike surface-only devices, Attiva works internally through a thin probe inserted through tiny entry points, allowing energy to reach deeper layers where structural change occurs.

The result is subtle contouring and tightening. Attiva addresses mild-to-moderate skin laxity, reduces wrinkles and fine lines, and enhances facial and body contours. For patients who want more than topical treatments can deliver but aren’t ready for a full surgical lift, Attiva bridges the gap with a gentle approach and minimal downtime.

How Attiva
Technology Works

Attiva delivers radiofrequency energy in a precise, temperature-controlled manner using a specialized probe. As the RF energy heats the deeper layers of tissue, it causes existing collagen fibers to contract and triggers the body’s natural healing and remodeling response.

  • Controlled thermal stimulation prompts fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin over the following weeks and months.
  • Energy is applied from beneath the skin, reaching tissue directly and efficiently.
  • Gradual collagen regeneration firms and refines the treatment area, with results that develop naturally over time rather than all at once.

Treatable Areas

Attiva is versatile and can be applied across several regions where mild-to-moderate laxity and textural concerns appear.

Targets the lower face, jawline, jowls, cheeks, and around the eyes for a lifting and tightening effect, while diminishing nasolabial folds and marionette lines.
Tightens loose skin on the neck – reducing “tech neck” or “turkey neck” – and smooths wrinkles and crepey skin on the chest. Also refines a soft or heavy appearance under the chin.
Addresses laxity on the arms (e.g., “bat wings”), abdomen, thighs, and knees for a more toned, sculpted silhouette.

During your consultation, your surgeon will assess your concerns and recommend the areas best suited to your goals.

The Attiva
Treatment Process

Every Attiva treatment is tailored to your unique anatomy and goals – comfortable, efficient, and precise from your first conversation through your final result.
Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with one of our experienced providers, who evaluates your skin, discusses your goals, and reviews your medical history to confirm Attiva is right for you. You’ll receive specific preparation guidance, which may include avoiding certain medications, supplements, or skincare products, and arranging aftercare.
On treatment day, the area is cleansed and prepared, and local anesthesia keeps you at ease. The RF probe is introduced through tiny entry points, delivering controlled radiofrequency energy beneath the skin in a methodical pattern. You may feel a warming sensation, which is generally well-tolerated. Session length varies with the number and size of areas treated – typically 30 minutes to an hour – and is completed in-office efficiently.
Afterward, you’ll receive detailed aftercare instructions to support healing and optimize results. This may include guidance on activity, gentle skincare, avoiding direct sun exposure, and temporary precautions. Mild redness or swelling usually subsides within a few hours.
One of Attiva’s greatest advantages is its reduced downtime. Mild swelling, tenderness, or redness is normal and generally resolves within hours to a few days. Most patients return to routine activities quickly, though your surgeon will provide a personalized timeline based on the areas treated and your healing.

Attiva Treatment Results

Some patients notice subtle early tightening in the weeks following treatment, but the most meaningful improvement develops gradually over several weeks to months as new collagen and elastin form. Patience is rewarded with results that unfold naturally.

Longevity of Effects

Attiva results can be long-lasting – generally several months to a few years – particularly when supported by a healthy lifestyle, consistent skincare, and sun protection. No procedure stops the natural aging process, so some patients choose periodic maintenance treatments to sustain their outcome. Your surgeon can advise on a plan tailored to your goals.

Who Is a Candidate for Attiva?

Attiva is well-suited to adults who notice mild-to-moderate skin laxity and want a tightening effect without committing to more extensive surgery. Good candidates are in good overall health, maintain realistic expectations, and want gradual, natural improvement. Attiva is suitable for all skin types and tones.
  •  Ideal Patient Profile: The ideal patient has mild-to-moderate skin laxity, healthy skin quality, and a desire to preserve a natural look. They understand that results build progressively and are motivated to protect their investment with good skincare and a healthy lifestyle. Those who prefer minimal downtime and want to avoid the recovery of major surgery often find Attiva especially appealing.
  • Contraindications and Considerations: Attiva may not be right for everyone. Significant skin excess or advanced sagging may respond better to a surgical procedure. Contraindications may include pregnancy, active skin infections in the treatment area, pacemakers or other implanted electronic devices, or certain medical conditions. A thorough consultation and full disclosure of medications and prior procedures are essential to determine if Attiva is right for you.
