Radiofrequency Facial Rejuvenation

RADIOFREQUENCY FACIAL REJUVENATION

Radiofrequency  (RF) energy treatment is the technology for non-surgical tightening of early signs of loose or sagging skin, ideal for those people who either don't want or don't believe they are old enough to have a surgical procedure.

Pure RF energy alone  ( such as Tripollar Device ) is primarily used to treat skin laxity by facial tightening and is best suited to patients with mild to moderate sagging of facial tissues, usually those in their mid 30s to 50s with any skin colour.

By using RF energy treatment the patients are able to see an improvement skin tightness especially on the jaw lines, forehead, under eyes area, cheek and mid-face. The treatment gives the patients the satisfaction and fast result and minimal risk compared to surgery.

What can RF energy treat?

Pure RF energy is primarily used to treat skin laxity by facial tightening , reduce wrinkles, rejuvenating and brings back the glow and the youth of the skin and is best suited for any skin type and colour.

It is commonly used to treat forehead  (lift brows and tightens forehead skin), under eyes ( thickness skin, tightens and lifts the upper cheek), cheek (lifts slightly and diminishes enlarged pores), jaw lines and neck.

How does RF work?

RF is a technology that uses radiofrequency energy to skin of the face, creating measurable electrical current that reshape and contract the skin's collagen and then tighten the surface of the skin. Radiofrequency skin tightening requires no cutting or repositioning of the skin as is necessary during a traditional eye or face lift - and has significantly fewer side effects than older laser skin therapies. Much like laser treatment, RF energy penetrates both epidermis and the dermis to tighten and rejuvenate the skin, but it cause no damage to existing skin cells . If you have sensitive skin but want to treat your fine lines and wrinkles, radiofrequency skin tightening may be a good option for you, as it is gentler on the skin than most other kinds of thermal procedures.

In the field of skin care and anti-aging treatments, RF wave are most commonly used for facial rejuvenation and their believed ability to stimulate the protein givers that keep the skin elastic. During treatment, the RF waves penetrate the skin to tighten from the inside out, as they stimulate collagen fibroblast production, which will in trigger the production of fresh collagen fibre which result in tighter, more though skin which is demonstrably younger and healthy.

Risk And Side effects

As the treatment is carried out you will experience deep heating sensations every time the RF energy transfers to your skin and underlying tissues. By applying the cooling gel to protect your skin from the heating and make the treatment more comfortable and relaxing. Each person's tolerat it differently and it is also depends on the device power setting for the treatment.
The most frequently reported side effects of RF treatment are swelling and redness around the treated area, which typically disappeared within hours.
