OligioX is a monopolar radiofrequency treatment that offers two customizable delivery modes — a deeper mode for structural firming and a gentler mode for surface rejuvenation — allowing your provider to tailor energy delivery to your skin and treatment area. Built-in cryogen cooling keeps treatment comfortable, with no incisions, no needles, and no downtime.
How it works
OligioX delivers monopolar radiofrequency energy at 6.78 MHz with simultaneous cryogen cooling to protect the skin’s surface. Its deeper mode targets structural tissue for firming, while its gentler mode works more superficially for lighter rejuvenation — giving your provider flexibility to customize treatment to your skin type and goals.
What it treats
- Facial laxity, jowls, and nasolabial folds
- Cheek and mid-face firmness
- Arms and other body areas with mild-to-moderate laxity
What does the research show?
A 2024 study in Cosmetics evaluated the monopolar radiofrequency platform OligioX is built on — the original Oligio device from the same manufacturer — in 20 adult women with mild-to-moderate facial laxity, following them for 24 weeks after a single treatment session. Blinded evaluators found significant improvement in jowls and nasolabial folds by 12 weeks, sustained through 24 weeks, with cheek firmness improving as early as 4 weeks and continuing to build. Reported pain was minimal (average 0.4 out of 10), and no burns, skin breakdown, or scarring occurred.
What to expect
Most patients describe OligioX as comfortable, with little to no pain during treatment and no meaningful downtime. Some patients notice an immediate, natural-looking improvement, with continued firming over the following weeks as new collagen forms. Your provider will select the mode and settings best suited to your skin and goals during your session.
Is OligioX right for you?
OligioX is well suited for patients with mild-to-moderate skin laxity who want a comfortable, customizable, non-surgical option — whether that’s early jowling and nasolabial folds, cheek firmness, or laxity on the arms or other body areas. During your consultation, our team will assess your skin and goals to determine whether OligioX on its own, or combined with other HALO treatments like Ultherapy Prime, is the best fit.
