Liposuction is a surgical procedure, requiring a heavier investment in terms of time, money and recovery. In contrast, RFAL (radio frequency assisted lipolysis) is applied with a cannula to gently heat and remodel tissue at a subcutaneous level. It’s an aspiration-free procedure, meaning body fat isn’t suctioned out like it would be in liposuction, and results in a far less invasive procedure to achieve fat ablation. 

As opposed to removing large volumes of fat which can result in secondary skin laxity, Aviva focuses on refining and tightening the soft tissue in a controlled way. Aviva RFAL treatments in Sydney are done without surgical incisions and are completed in a controlled setting at our clinic and can be completed with local anaesthetic, after which recovery will be faster and less intensive than with conventional surgery. 

At Lift Clinic, Aviva RFAL treatments in Sydney will be on a case by case basis after an initial consultation. However, the major benefit of Aviva is that it’s been used across a broad range of more delicate areas, including the external genital area, where it may help address concerns like skin laxity and changes in the texture of the skin’s tissue. Whether it’s for improving skin condition after childbirth, natural changes that result from the ageing process or weight fluctuation, Aviva offers a more custom and personalised treatment. If you are unsure whether your individual concerns are compatible with this treatment focus, our team can help you with an initial consultation. 

When completing Aviva RFAL treatments in our Sydney clinic, our most common clientele include patients seeking a minimally invasive means of improving their general comfort or appearance of their external genitals, without the need for surgery. Typically, it’s used to address concerns like changes in the skin’s laxity, an enlargement in the soft tissues or changes that affect everyday confidence or comfort. An initial consultation would be completed before any procedures are booked, and if Aviva isn’t the right option for you, we can guide you through other options that are more suited to your unique anatomy and aesthetic goals. 

Each patient is different, though the changes most commonly noted typically include gradual improvements in the skin tissue’s tightness, with more sculpted contours. While the results will be noticeable shortly after the treatment, the results continue to improve in the following weeks and months, with many of our Aviva Sydney patients noting increased comfort wearing their clothing and an improved appearance. 

Each treatment and recovery journey is different, and results will evolve over time. One of the key benefits of Aviva RFAL in contrast with surgical procedures is that recovery is usually quicker as the treatment involves very small entry points and is performed under local anaesthetic as opposed to under general anaesthetic. You may experience low level swelling, tenderness, or sensitivity initially, which we can help you manage though these symptoms usually abate within a few days of your treatment. 

Aviva RFAL treatments are designed to deliver results similar to surgical procedures, though the longevity of any treatment largely comes down to your skin’s condition and the natural ageing process. Over time, factors like age, childbirth, weight fluctuations, or menopause, can reduce the visible changes you initially experience. However, with proper aftercare, supportive treatment like fillers and additional support after your procedure, your results can last for years to come. 

Any procedure comes with some potential risks, though those associated with Aviva RFAL treatments in our Sydney clinic are minimal. Seeing a qualified practitioner like the team at Lift Clinic helps to mitigate risk. Generally, the most common side effects are immediately after the treatment and may include temporary swelling, bruising, tenderness or mild discomfort. We can discuss these risks with you before the treatment and will give you aftercare instructions to keep the area clean to reduce the chances of infection or irritation. 

Pricing for Aviva RFAL in Sydney at the Lift Clinic varies depending on individual anatomy, treatment complexity and your aesthetic goals. We don’t include pricing on the treatment booking form as we’ll consult with you in person to give you an initial quote and a treatment plan before any procedures are undertaken. This ensures you have clarity around costs before proceeding and can make a decision that feels right for you.
