Attiva Skin Tightening
Miami — Precise.
Comfortable. Lasting.

Attiva delivers radiofrequency energy directly to the subdermal layer using a cannula inserted beneath the skin through a tiny entry point. Once positioned, the RF tip heats the fibrous tissue and deep dermis to a precise therapeutic temperature, triggering immediate collagen contraction and stimulating a sustained collagen remodeling response over the following 3-6 months. Because the RF is delivered from inside the tissue rather than from the skin’s surface, it reaches depths and achieves heating uniformity that external devices cannot replicate. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, which allows energy delivery at the levels required for a clinically meaningful result.

Attiva is performed under local anesthesia, which is what makes it genuinely comfortable, not just “tolerable.” After the anesthetic takes effect, most patients describe the sensation during the procedure as mild pressure or warmth, with no significant pain. The anesthesia administration itself involves a brief stinging sensation. Post-procedure, patients typically experience tenderness, firmness, and mild swelling in the treated area for 2-5 days, manageable with standard over-the-counter care. This is notably different from non-anesthetized surface treatments, which must be dialed down to whatever energy level an unanesthetized patient can tolerate, often at the cost of clinical efficacy.

For most patients, one Attiva session produces a significant and lasting improvement, which is one of the treatment’s key advantages over surface devices that require multiple sessions. A second session at 6 months is an option for patients with larger treatment areas, greater baseline laxity, or those who want progressive enhancement. Results from a single session continue improving for up to 6 months as collagen remodeling matures, and typically last 2-3 years. The exact protocol is determined at your Medilight consultation based on a direct assessment of your tissue quality and goals.

Attiva pricing at Medilight depends on the area or areas being treated, the complexity of the case, and whether face and body zones are combined. Because Attiva often requires only one session, versus three to six sessions for surface devices, the total cost of treatment is frequently comparable or lower when viewed as a full course investment. Cherry financing is available to spread the cost over time. We do not publish flat fees because Attiva is a physician-performed procedure where pricing without an in-person anatomy assessment is not meaningful.

Attiva produces real, lasting structural improvement, but it is a skin tightening treatment, not a surgical facelift or body lift. It is most effective for mild to moderate laxity where the skin has lost tone and firmness but has not descended significantly. For patients with advanced jowling, significant neck redundancy, or post-bariatric skin excess, surgery is likely the more appropriate solution, and a Medilight provider will tell you that directly. The honest answer is that Attiva and surgery occupy different points on the same spectrum. For the right patient, Attiva produces a result that lasts 2-3 years and avoids surgical risk and recovery entirely. The consultation is the only way to determine which category you fall into.
