The radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is simultaneously oscillating electric field and magnetic. Although a system known therapeutic use in surgery for years-electro scalpel, coagulation, diatermia, etc ...
Recent research has managed to move its use to the field of aesthetics by creating a technology capable of delivering radio frequency energy selectively in the deep dermis and subdermal layers while protecting the epidermis and thus be able to fight against flaccidity and cellulite..
The radio frequency generates an electric field that changes from positive to negative, causing a rotational movement of the heat-generating molecules. Both types used are Bipolar radiofrequency, which causes heating of the skin surface, and Unipolar, which produces heating in the deepest part of the dermis acting on the adipose tissue. Since the radiofrequency device has both heads Radiant as Unipolar Bipolar, we can deliver energy at different depths, and trying different types of cellulite, and facial and other areas laxity.
How does the frequency?
Radiofrequency produces a deep heating affects the skin and subcutaneous fat. A warming could mean going from the inside out. Such heating will favor:
Lymphatic drainage, which will reduce fluids and toxins in which the adipocytes of the tissue affected by cellulite are embedded.
An increase in the circulation of the area that will improve the metabolism of both the subcutaneous fat tissue and improve the appearance of skin companion.
The formation of new collagen, both the skin and subcutaneous tissue, allowing the tissue to acquire firmness thanks to the reorganization of the fibrous septa and overlying dermal thickening.
Finally after thermal injury to tissue shrinkage controlled an inflammatory response that will be accompanied by the migration of fibroblasts, which will further strengthen the collagen structure, resulting in a resurfacing of the treated area.
The immediate effect of the application of radiofrequency shrinkage of collagen is, more or less rapidly depending on the case. However, the aim is to gradually get deep restructuring of collagen, including that new fibers to replace aging and make it more elastic tissue forming, homeostasis and favors, and general, improve the condition of the skin by removing traces of her time.
This process is slower and, as appropriate and depending on the state in which the collagen person is, occurs between two and four months post treatment. Indeed histological studies have been conducted to demonstrate significant changes in collagen remodeling after the sixth week after the application of radiofrequency.
Radiofrequency treatment
The procedure is simple. Before the session was taking pictures and the area is marked with a surgical marker. Subsequently applied on clean skin oil and energy is applied by entering through a treatment head that is constantly moving on skin. The duration of treatment varies depending on the area being treated. Small areas like the arms are usually completed within 25 from 30 minutes, while larger areas like trochanters (cartucheras) may be prolonged 45 a 60 minutes.
After the session aloe vera gel is applied to the treated areas and the patient can return to their daily lives immediately, avoiding the sun and following UVA 48 hours. You should drink plenty of water after the session, as it will help the final result.
The number of sessions required varies and will depend on the status of each patient and the standards of the same, but are considered necessary between 4 and 6 in facial, and between 6 and 10 body treatments. The procedure is well tolerated and does not require anesthesia. It feels hot and, in people with painful cellulite, you may feel a little pain to friction head in certain areas.
Radiofrequency therapy is contraindicated in:
- Pregnancy and lactation.
- Carriers metal prosthesis, pacemaker, defibrillators or cardioversions.
- Severe heart disease.
- Coagulation disorders.
- Connective tissue diseases and neuromuscular.
- Cancer.
- Neither are good candidates severely overweight patients.
- Recent collagen implants.
In short, consider the radio as an effective therapeutic, safely and easily applied to cellulite and sagging facial and body.
