Firmer skin on the face, neck and body, over a series.
Venus Nova Skin Tightening is a non-invasive treatment that combines multipolar radiofrequency with pulsed electromagnetic fields to firm loosening skin on the face, neck and body. Sessions take 30–60 minutes with no downtime, results are best around sessions 6–8, and maintenance sessions hold them.
The skin along your jaw and on your neck has less spring than it did, and the contour has softened. On the body, the abdomen, arms or inner thighs have a slackness that exercise does not change: not weight, but skin that has stopped holding tension. It is subtle enough that no one else has mentioned it, and clear enough that you see it every morning.
You want a comfortable session that fits into a lunch hour, treats face and body alike, and firms the skin steadily over a series, with nothing to recover from.

Where you want to be
The Venus Nova applicator uses several radiofrequency electrodes in a multipolar arrangement, paired with pulsed electromagnetic fields, so it warms an even volume of tissue rather than a single spot and prompts the skin to build new collagen over the weeks that follow. Because the surface stays intact, there is no downtime, and because radiofrequency does not depend on pigment, it is suitable across skin tones.
Results build across a series and are best around sessions 6–8. After that, periodic maintenance sessions hold the gain. Venus Nova firms skin; it does not reposition tissue or restore lost volume, so it is often planned alongside threads or biostimulators when those are needed.
03
What to expect
After your assessment and baseline photographs, the area is cleansed and a gel is applied so the applicator glides. Your clinician moves the handpiece in continuous passes, monitoring skin temperature as it rises to the target and holding it there. Most patients describe it as a warm massage, and many find it relaxing. Sessions take 30–60 minutes depending on the area.
The skin is pink and warm for up to an hour and may feel slightly tight. There are no restrictions on work, exercise or makeup. Wear sunscreen and avoid intentional tanning during the series.
The visit
30–60 minutes. Warm, gliding passes with real-time temperature monitoring; the face and neck take less time than larger body areas.
First days
No downtime. Mild pinkness and warmth fade within an hour or two.
Results
Best around sessions 6–8. Firmness and texture improve progressively across the series as new collagen forms.
Longevity
Maintenance needed. Periodic sessions after the series hold the result, at a cadence your clinician sets with you.
Who it tends to suit
Adults with mild to moderate laxity of the lower face, jawline or neck
People with loosening skin on the abdomen, arms or thighs
Patients of any skin tone who want a comfortable, no-downtime treatment
Those who prefer a scheduled series over a single intensive procedure
Anyone maintaining results from earlier lifting or volume treatments
Not suitable during pregnancy, with a pacemaker or other implanted electrical device, over metal implants in the treatment area, or on skin with active infection, open lesions or a recent sunburn
04
Who performs it
Your skin, degree of laxity and any contraindications are assessed before the series begins, and the treatment temperature and duration are set for your tissue. Baseline and follow-up photographs let the change across the series be compared rather than estimated.
Your clinician will be clear about what a non-invasive series can and cannot do, and where threads, biostimulators or laser skin tightening would serve your goals better.
No. The treatment feels like a warm massage that builds to a steady heat and is held there. Temperature is monitored continuously and your clinician adjusts the pace to your comfort. No anesthetic or numbing is used.
How many sessions will I need?
Results are best around sessions 6–8, usually spaced about a week apart. Your clinician sets the number and spacing at your assessment based on your laxity and the area, and reviews progress as the series proceeds.
How long do the results last?
The improvement is built from your own collagen, and it is held with periodic maintenance sessions after the series. How often depends on your age, skin and sun habits; results vary by individual.
Is there any downtime?
None. Pinkness and warmth fade within an hour or two, and there are no restrictions on activity, exercise or makeup afterward.
How much does Venus Nova Skin Tightening cost?
Cost depends on the size of the area treated and the number of sessions in your series; face-and-neck and body areas are planned separately. Pricing is set at your assessment, and you will know the full plan before your first session.
Is it suitable for darker skin?
Yes. Radiofrequency does not target pigment, so it is suitable across skin tones. Your clinician assesses your skin before the first session.
Does this treatment also address cellulite or muscle tone?
Those are separate treatments: Venus Nova Cellulite Reduction and Venus Nova Muscle Conditioning, both under Body Contouring. This page covers skin tightening on the face, neck and body.
