Oligio X is considered a safe and well-tolerated radiofrequency skin tightening treatment when performed by experienced medical professionals. At CK Plastic Surgery, patient safety is prioritized through comprehensive pre-treatment evaluations, controlled energy delivery, and post-treatment care guidance.
Immediately following treatment, patients may experience mild redness, warmth, or slight swelling in the treated areas. These effects are temporary and typically resolve within a few hours to a few days. Some individuals report a sensation similar to a mild sunburn, which subsides quickly without intervention.
Because Oligio X is non-invasive, there is no required downtime. Most patients return to work, social activities, and exercise within the same day or the following day. Makeup and skincare products can usually be resumed within 24 hours, depending on skin sensitivity.
Although rare, potential risks may include temporary skin sensitivity, uneven swelling, or minor discomfort. Serious complications such as burns or prolonged inflammation are uncommon due to advanced temperature control and Dr. Kim’s precise treatment protocols.
Results develop gradually as collagen remodeling occurs. Patients may notice initial tightening within weeks, with optimal results appearing over three to six months. Maintenance treatments may be recommended annually to sustain collagen stimulation and long-term skin firmness.
