Radiofrequency and Wrinkle Reduction System

 If you are looking for an effective treatment to reduce facial wrinkles and skin sagging with no down time, radiofrequency would be ideal for you. The FDA-approved radiofrequency wrinkle reduction system has become increasingly popular due to its high efficacy and safety. The system utilizes monopolar radiofrequency, an electromagnetic energy, to target collagen, a fibrous protein in the skin to maintain the elasticity and youthful looking. During the treatment, the radiofrequency will warm up your skin to 104-114 degree Fahrenheit. At this temperature, collagen fibrils will contract and realign themselves, giving a tighter and smoother skin almost immediately after the treatment. In the long term, the radiofrequency can stimulate the growth of collagen fibers by induction of fibroblast cells and continued collagen synthesis. Greater patient satisfaction has been reported six months rather than one month after treatment.
There are many companies manufacturing radiofrequency machines, including ThermiSmooth, Thermage and Pelleve, to name a few. ThermiSmooth is performed using a specially designed thermistor-regulated hand piece. As the hand piece gently heats the skin’s surface up to 20 mm deep, it targets problem areas around the eyes, mouth, cheeks and neck. The average treatment includes four sessions, with each session running from 20 to 40 minutes, spaced one month apart. Due to its non-invasive nature, the only side effects are mild burn and redness, compared to pain, long recovery and posttreatment downtime that are commonly associated with more invasive cosmetic procedures such as dermabrasion, chemical peeling, and ablative or nonablative laser therapy.
