What is TuneFace

TuneFace is the name used in Korea for a facial treatment on Accent Prime, a platform by Alma. Its applicator uses 40.68 MHz unipolar radiofrequency with gentle suction that draws the skin into the tip, so heat is delivered to a defined volume of tissue.

The heat tightens existing collagen and prompts new collagen to form. Because the energy is localised and the sensation is mild, it is known as one of the more comfortable RF treatments.

It is often used for the jawline, cheeks and lower face, and the same platform can treat body areas.

Before you decide

It may suit you if

It may not be the right treatment if
