Not a euphemism. This was posted on my local Facebook group. It’s certainly a novel way of heating the face up. Not sure it would achieve anything sticking your face over a bowl of hot water wouldn’t.

At work we have big warning signs if we’re going to use RF. What’s next, nitric acid facial peel?

Wonder how much overlap there is between the people who are willing to pay for RF facials - and the people who believe RF "pollution" is messing with their brains???

(P.S. the RF stimulation seems to have shrunk her pupil. So it tightened one muscle at least!).

NB the change of lighting angle.

Though it is possible that it's actually the RF stimulation on the Full Moon that explains why craters are far less visible compared to first quarter. Yes, RF stimulation works on the Moon too! Hurrah!

There have been reports that this type cosmetic treatment can actually increase perceived skin age by causing subcutaneous fat loss, that’s in addition to the risk of burns.

Well with high frequency RF I have successfully managed to brown some skin in my kitchen - although not as effectively as when it's placed in a conventional oven

I think they're underselling this RF treatment. I mean, after 1 treatment it's managed to turn grey hair back to brown!

And if you thought using RF for a facial was weird...
