Radiofrequency Treatment
What Is Radiofrequency? How Is It Operated?
Fast, comfortable treatment, occurrence of no scars are reasons that made non-surgical skin tightening methods are getting popular that are preferred by patients who wish to improve their appearance. As a fresh technology, radiofrequency treatment has developed rapidly and became popular.
Radiofrequency (RF) is a category in this spectrum and involves many common energy types that we use daily. These are, wifi signals, radio and TV signals, microwave owens and such. RF energy that is used in skin tightening, is a field of 450 kh found on the slower edge of radiofrequency spectrum. If we may put it into a bigger perspective, the wavelength in radiofrequency skin tightening method is 100 million times slower than visible light and 1 billion times slower than X-ray.
Radiofrequency (RF) is a category within this spectrum and encompasses many common types of energy that we use daily. These include energy types such as Wi-Fi signals, radio and TV waves, and microwaves. The RF energy used in skin tightening operates in the 450 kHz range, which is at the slower end of the radiofrequency spectrum. To put this into a broader perspective, the wavelength used in radiofrequency skin tightening is 100 million times slower than visible light and 1 billion times slower than an X-ray.
What Happens After Radiofrequency Treatment?
• A visible tightening occurs on the facial area.
• Sagging and wrinkles that are caused by aging, genetical disposition and eating habits are reduced.
• Sagging eyebrows are lifted.
• Skin pigments become alive and bright.
Things to Consider
• Special creams should be applied before radiofrequency treatment to release the pain to minimal.
• There may be rashes on the skin for the first 4-5 hours.
• by the end of the day, rashes will start to dissolve.
• In the healing stage, creams recommended by the experts should be used.
• Skin should be avoided water contact for the day radiofrequency treatment is operated. And make-up and cosmetics must not be used.
• There may be rashes during and after the treatment. Drying and tightness on the skin may occur. It is very important to use special creams and antibiotic pomades that experts prescribe.
• Direct sunlight should be avoided after treatment. Sunlight may reduce the affect of radioactive treatment to the minimum level and cause different harms.
• There may be minimal amount of scab after treatment. They should not be removed. They will fall off in 3-4 days after treatment.
• Paying attention to treatment sessions will seriously increase the success rate of the treatment.
