What is Oligio RF?

Oligo is a high-frequency lifting device that uses a frequency of 6.78 MHz. It is a skin-tightening device that applies strong heat to the dermal layer of the skin to promote new collagen synthesis and increase skin elasticity. 

Oligo dental laser device with digital display and handpiece attached.

How it works ?

Oligio uses RF energy to lift your skin and trigger collagen production. It uses specialized handpieces that precisely transfer this energy into the deeper layers of the skin. The cells in the dermis produce collagen, a structural protein that gives your skin firmness and flexibility.

What to expect ?

Oligio can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture, and contour the skin. It can also help with enlarged pores and acne scars. 

The Oligio device has a temperature sensor and cooling gas to keep the skin cool and comfortable during the treatment. The device also automatically stops if the skin gets too hot. 

You can see results immediately after the procedure, but it can take up to three months for the collagen to fully regenerate. The results can last up to six months, but may vary depending on your skin type, age, and lifestyle. 

A typical Oligio treatment lasts about 45 minutes. This treatment has no downtime. Oligio can be combined with other treatments to address different skin concerns.
