Radiofrequency for firming
How to firm sagging skin?
Treatment with monopolar Radio Frequency coupled with focused ultrasound makes it possible to strengthen existing collagen fibers weakened over time on the body and face. For smoother, more supple and firmer skin.
Radio Frequency is a skin firming technique using heat production in the dermis (middle layer of the skin). Radio Frequency is based on the emission of high frequency electrical waves which penetrate the skin, causing an increase in the heat of the dermis which will stimulate the production of collagen at the cell level. Thus, this technique stimulates and tightens the existing collagen fibers giving the skin a firmer, tighter appearance.
It is also called skin tightening Or body contouring.
Skin firming using the EXILIS ELITE device (Exilis Elite, BTL Industries Inc., Boston, MA, USA) combines monopolar radiofrequency with ultrasound. It has received approval from the FDA (American health authority) and has been marketed since 2009 in the United States.
This technique is aimed at people who are looking for skin firming or improvement in skin texture.
