Targeted energy delivery
Fractional RF passes into the skin through 144 points to reach the dermis, where collagen and elastin are produced.












Clinic-style RF. Done at home in 15 minutes.
A home device with fractional RF, the same kind of technology clinics use for skin tightening. 144 raised electrodes warm the dermis, where collagen fibres live, instead of the fat layer beneath it. No needles. No downtime. No appointments.






It sends fractional RF energy through 144 raised electrodes to gently heat the dermis, the layer where collagen is made. Skin responds to that warmth by building new collagen over the following weeks.
Most home RF wands heat through one flat plate. The R1 spreads energy across a grid of 144 raised points with untouched skin in between, and its heads are replaceable, so the tips stay sharp.
No. It feels warm, like a heat pack. Start on L and move up as your skin gets used to it.
Smoother skin often comes first. Give firmness 8 weeks at 2 to 3 sessions a week, and up to 3 months for the full effect.

A single clinic RF session averages $1,230, and results fade unless you keep going back. The R1 puts fractional RF in your bathroom, with unlimited sessions for one price.

PrepClean, dry skin, then a thin even layer of gel over the area.
PowerTurn it on and start on L. Move up to M, then H, over the first weeks.
GlideHold flat for 2 to 5 seconds per spot, then move. Two passes per area.
2 to 3 times a week for the first 8 weeks, then once or twice a week to keep results going.
Single-plate RF can push heat deeper than it needs to go. The R1 uses multi-polar fractional RF: energy runs between neighbouring electrodes, so the heat stays in the dermis, where collagen is made, and the fat layer that gives your face its fullness is left alone.

Not by chance. Every part of the R1 is built around getting heat into the dermis evenly and safely.
Raised tips contour into your skin for full contact across the head, delivering energy from many directions at once.
Energy is spread across 144 points with no single hot plate, for targeted collagen stimulation across the whole area.
Swap in a fresh Lattice Head every 3 to 4 months, so the R1 keeps working at full strength for years.

A published study followed six women aged 47 to 62 through six clinic RF sessions, with skin biopsies before and after. Here's what changed.

Fractional RF passes into the skin through 144 points to reach the dermis, where collagen and elastin are produced.

Gentle heat makes existing collagen fibres contract and signals the skin that it's time to repair and rebuild.

Over the following weeks, fibroblasts lay down new type I and type III collagen, for firmer, smoother-looking skin.

Collagen takes time to build. Here's the usual path at 2 to 3 sessions a week.

Skin feels smoother and looks brighter after sessions as you get used to the warmth.
Rough patches soften and make-up sits better as the surface evens out.
New collagen starts to show as firmer skin, softer lines and a crisper jaw.
Results keep building. Drop to 1 or 2 sessions a week to maintain them.




Most people notice smoother, brighter skin within the first few weeks. Firmness, softer lines and a crisper jaw usually show from 6 to 8 weeks at 2 to 3 sessions a week, and keep improving to around 3 months, because your skin is building new collagen.
Check the basics: 2 to 3 sessions a week, every electrode flat on the skin, enough gel, and 2 to 5 seconds per spot. If L feels comfortable, move up to M. Give it a full 8 weeks. If you're still unsure, email us, and remember the 90-day refund.
Collagen you build stays, but skin keeps ageing. After the first 8 to 12 weeks, 1 or 2 sessions a week keeps results going.
2 to 3 sessions a week for the first 8 weeks, then 1 to 2 a week to maintain. Evening works well, but any time of day is fine.
About 15 minutes for the face and neck. Bigger body areas take longer.
Yes. Any water-based conductive gel keeps the head gliding and every electrode in contact. One bottle comes in the box.
About 3 to 4 months at 2 to 3 sessions a week. Your R1 comes with 3 heads, up to a year of sessions.
With the USB-C cable in the box. A full charge lasts about 2 hours, roughly 8 sessions.
No. It feels warm, like a heat pack. Start on L and keep the head moving every few seconds.
Don't use the R1 if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, have metal implants in the area, or are being treated for cancer. Skip broken, sunburned or irritated skin. If you have a skin condition or are unsure, ask your doctor first.
Mild, short-lived warmth or pinkness can happen right after a session and fades quickly. If an area feels hot, lift the head and move on, and stay on a lower level.
Radiofrequency energy delivered through a grid of small points instead of one plate. Each point warms a tiny zone of the dermis, with untouched skin in between.
Red light works with light on the surface layers, and microcurrent works the muscles. RF works with heat in the dermis, where collagen is made.
Electrode tips wear with use. A fresh head every 3 to 4 months keeps every tip in full contact, so sessions stay as effective as day one.
