What It Is
Venus Legacy RF is a non-surgical skin tightening, anti-aging, and body contouring treatment that uses a combination of Multipolar Radiofrequency (RF) and Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields (PEMF), along with VariPulse™ suction technology. This three-in-one system allows for deeper energy penetration, improved circulation, and lymphatic drainage while stimulating collagen and elastin production.
Unlike older RF devices, Venus Legacy provides comfortable, uniform heating of the skin and underlying tissues, making it highly effective for:
- Facial tightening and wrinkle reduction
- Cellulite improvement and body sculpting
- Skin firming in loose areas (jawline, abdomen, thighs, arms, etc.)
In Korea, Venus Legacy is used not just for anti-aging facials but also for slimming programs and skin maintenance routines, making it a versatile option for both face and body.
Why It’s Done
Patients choose Venus Legacy RF for a variety of reasons:
➝ Skin tightening → Improves laxity on the face, neck, and body.
➝ Wrinkle reduction → Smooths fine lines, particularly around eyes and mouth.
➝ Cellulite reduction → Breaks down fibrous bands and enhances circulation.
➝ Body contouring → Firms and slims areas such as thighs, abdomen, and arms.
➝ Improved circulation → Boosts lymphatic drainage and skin oxygenation.
➝ Preventative care → Popular among younger patients as a maintenance therapy.
In Korea, where contouring and firm, youthful skin are highly valued, Venus Legacy is often marketed as a dual-purpose treatment for both beauty and wellness.
Alternatives
While Venus Legacy is highly effective, other treatments may be considered depending on the patient’s goals:
- Thermage FLX (RF tightening) → Stronger superficial tightening for wrinkles.
- EndyMed RF (3DEEP RF) → Precise tightening for both face and body.
- Scarlet SRF / Sylfirm X (RF microneedling) → Better for scars, pores, and texture.
- Ultherapy / Shurink HIFU → Ultrasound-based, targets deeper lifting.
- Laser treatments (Fraxel, CO₂) → Improve texture and fine lines but involve downtime.
- Thread lifts → Provide immediate lifting for sagging skin.
In Korea, Venus Legacy is often combined with complementary treatments:
- Venus Legacy + HIFU (Shurink) → Surface tightening + deep lifting.
- Venus Legacy + Lipolysis injections → Body slimming plus skin tightening.
- Venus Legacy + Exosome infusion → Collagen stimulation plus skin regeneration.
Preparation
Preparation for Venus Legacy RF is simple and non-invasive:
➝ Consultation → Doctors assess target areas (face or body).
➝ Hydration → Patients are encouraged to drink water before sessions to improve lymphatic drainage.
➝ Skincare adjustment → Avoid strong exfoliants or acids for 2–3 days before facial treatments.
➝ Medical history review → Disclose pacemakers, implants, or vascular conditions (since RF and PEMF are contraindicated in such cases).
➝ Comfortable clothing → For body treatments, patients may need looser attire.
In Korea, clinics may also perform a gentle exfoliation or cleansing facial before starting Venus Legacy sessions to enhance results.
How It’s Done
A Venus Legacy session typically lasts 30–60 minutes, depending on the treatment area:
- Cleansing → For facial sessions, skin is cleaned thoroughly.
- Application of glycerin-based gel → Ensures smooth device movement and effective energy transfer.
- Device application →
- The Venus Legacy handpiece glides across the skin.
- Multipolar RF + PEMF deliver controlled heat to stimulate collagen.
- VariPulse™ suction enhances circulation, lymphatic drainage, and cellulite reduction.
- Patients usually feel a warm, massage-like sensation, not pain.
- Post-care → Hydrating masks or serums may be applied for facial sessions.
Treatment plan:
- Face tightening → 6–8 sessions, once a week.
- Body contouring → 8–10 sessions, once a week.
- Maintenance → Every 3–6 months, depending on lifestyle and aging.
Recovery
Venus Legacy is known for its no-downtime recovery:
- Immediately after → Skin feels warm, plump, and tighter.
- Day 1–2 → Mild redness possible, but makeup and normal activities are fine right away.
- Week 2–4 → Gradual tightening, improved circulation, and reduced puffiness.
- Month 2–3 → Peak results with firmer contours and smoother skin.
Aftercare recommendations:
➝ Stay hydrated to support lymphatic drainage.
➝ Use SPF 50+ sunscreen daily for face treatments.
➝ Maintain a healthy lifestyle (diet and exercise) for body contouring.
➝ Apply gentle, hydrating skincare.
In Korea, clinics often provide aftercare creams, slimming herbal teas, or exosome masks depending on whether the treatment was facial or body-focused.
Complications
Venus Legacy is extremely safe, but mild side effects may occur:
➝ Temporary redness or warmth → Common, subsides within hours.
➝ Mild swelling → Rare, usually resolves in 1–2 days.
➝ Bruising → Possible if suction is too strong, but very rare.
➝ Overheating → Rare, prevented by the device’s integrated safety sensors.
Korean clinics minimize risks by using trained specialists, precise device calibration, and personalized protocols.
