Quick Answer
Volnewmer RF skin tightening in Christchurch is exclusive to Silk Clinical Aesthetics, the only South Island clinic with the device (as at July 2026). Monopolar radiofrequency heats deep dermal tissue to remodel collagen, tightening skin on the face, neck, and jawline. Sessions take approximately 30 to 90 minutes depending on the area treated, with no downtime. Results build over 3 to 6 months and typically last 12 to 24 months. From $500 for the eye area; full face $2,500.
What is Volnewmer?
Volnewmer is an advanced monopolar radiofrequency (RF) treatment device that represents the next generation of non-surgical skin tightening technology. Operating at a frequency of 6.78MHz, Volnewmer delivers controlled RF energy deep into the skin's collagen-rich layers to stimulate natural collagen production and tissue remodelling.
Manufactured by Classys Inc. in South Korea, Volnewmer is distributed in New Zealand by Cryomed Aesthetics (part of the EBOS Group). The device is marketed as EVERESSE in the United States market and holds both FDA approval (US) and MFDS approval (Korea), confirming its safety and efficacy through rigorous clinical evaluation.
At Silk Clinical Aesthetics, we are the only clinic in the South Island offering Volnewmer (as at July 2026), giving Canterbury and wider South Island clients access to a treatment previously only available in major centres.
How Does Volnewmer Work?
Volnewmer uses monopolar RF energy to heat the deep collagen-rich layers of your skin, specifically targeting the papillary and reticular dermis. This controlled heating triggers two key biological responses.
First, the immediate contraction of existing collagen fibres, which produces a visible tightening effect from your very first treatment. Second, the stimulation of long-term collagen remodelling and regeneration, meaning your results continue to improve over the weeks and months following treatment.
What makes Volnewmer particularly advanced is its proprietary technology suite. The device features Hidden Edge Technology, which prevents energy clustering at electrode edges, a common issue with older RF devices that can lead to uneven results or discomfort. Volnewmer delivers a single energy pulse per REP (rather than multi-pulsation), providing more consistent and predictable energy delivery.
Patient comfort is managed through a sophisticated 4-step vibration and cooling system. Continuous water cooling protects the epidermis (outer skin layer) during treatment, allowing the RF energy to target deeper tissues without risking surface damage.
The device offers four interchangeable tip options designed for different treatment areas across both face and body. A tilting tip head adapts to the natural curvature of your skin, ensuring consistent energy delivery even on contoured areas like the jawline or neck. Unlike some RF devices, Volnewmer has no fixed time limit on consumables, allowing your treating nurse to customise treatment protocols to your specific needs.
What Can Volnewmer Treat?
Volnewmer is a versatile treatment suitable for a wide range of concerns across both face and body.
On the face, Volnewmer effectively treats skin laxity and sagging, fine lines and wrinkles, volume loss, and overall skin texture and tone. It is particularly effective for clients noticing early to moderate signs of facial ageing who want to restore firmness without surgery.
For body treatments, Volnewmer can address skin laxity on the arms, abdomen, knees, thighs, glutes, and neck. This makes it an excellent option for clients experiencing skin laxity after weight loss, pregnancy, or simply as part of the natural ageing process.
Your registered nurse will assess your specific concerns during a consultation and recommend whether Volnewmer alone, or in combination with other treatments, will deliver the best outcome for your goals.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
Volnewmer is a non-invasive treatment with no downtime required. Session length depends on the area treated: allow approximately 30 minutes for a single area such as the eyes, and up to 90 minutes for combined face and neck treatments. Your nurse will confirm timing for your plan at consultation.
During treatment, you will feel a warming sensation as the RF energy is delivered to the deeper skin layers. The integrated cooling and vibration system keeps the treatment comfortable for most clients. Many describe the experience as a warm massage.
Your treating nurse will select the appropriate tip for your treatment area and customise the energy settings based on your skin condition, concerns, and tolerance. The tilting tip head ensures consistent contact and energy delivery across the treatment area.
No anaesthesia or numbing cream is required for Volnewmer treatments.
Results and Recovery
One of the significant advantages of Volnewmer is the combination of immediate and progressive results.
Immediately following your treatment, you may notice a skin smoothing effect as the collagen fibres contract. This gives a visible tightening that many clients appreciate straight away.
The more significant results develop over three to six months as your body produces new collagen in response to the treatment. This collagen remodelling process is gradual, meaning your results look natural and progressive rather than sudden.
Results typically last 12 to 24 months depending on your skin condition, lifestyle, and the natural ageing process. Individual results vary. Many clients choose to have maintenance treatments to sustain their results over time.
In terms of recovery, most clients experience minimal to no side effects. Minor swelling or redness is possible and typically subsides within 24 hours. You can return to your normal activities immediately after treatment.
