Aesthetic Medicine specialists state that radiofrequency is a treatment used for non-surgical lifting. This treatment uses heat to obtain a tighter skin.
What is radiofrequency lifting?
Radiofrequency uses heat to achieve tighter skin. This is done by heating a few layers of the skin, the deep dermis and fatty tissue. This application of heat stimulates the formation of collagen fibers and their contraction, reducing sagging skin. Thermage, unlike other aesthetic radiofrequency treatments, has a greater capacity to deepen the tissues because it is a type of monopolar radiofrequency that has specific devices. Monopolar radiofrequency is the only approved method for the treatment of flaccidity.
The duration of Thermage treatment depends on the particular case. In general, treatment duration varies from 18 months to 2 years. In a single Thermage treatment session, very good results can be obtained in those cases that are correctly indicated by a specialist.
In general, anyone who wishes to improve the texture and tightening of the skin or body remodeling can undergo this treatment. The procedure can be performed on any skin type and at any time of the year.
What results does the Thermage radiofrequency facelift provide?
Thermage is clinically approved to tighten and rejuvenate facial and body contours naturally, restoring a more youthful appearance. It can be performed on any part of the body that you want to rejuvenate, such as the eyelids, in addition to improving small fat deposits located in the jowls, arms or abdomen.
It is a virtually painless treatment, which does not require the use of incisions or needles, and allows immediate reincorporation to normal life since it does not produce any immediate change on the skin.
The results are visible in the first few days after treatment, during which an improvement in skin texture is observed, and continue to improve over time. Rejuvenation, decreased sagging and tightening of the skin appear gradually in the first six months after treatment.
