Efficacy of high-frequency facial treatment

The effectiveness of facial radiofrequency surgery is increasingly being discussed. It's not a brand new technology, but it's now fully commercialized. In this article, let's take a look at what high-frequency procedures are and their efficacy.

The efficacy of high-frequency facial treatments has been word of mouth among doctors and patients. Some people are opposed to high-frequency procedures, but it is clear that technology has achieved remarkable growth in recent years.


Radiofrequency surgery has a different approach from plastic surgery, but the technology has reached a level of competitiveness. Because it is not an invasive procedure, it is cheaper and has a relatively certain effect in a short period of time.


The high-frequency procedure is often referred to as 'lifting without surgery', but it is not an exact name. Unlike plastic surgery, high frequency does not use anesthesia and does not have side effects that may occur after surgery.

The focus of this technology is the use of energy in the form of heat. It is a principle that stimulates the production and regeneration of collagen by releasing thermal energy that penetrates the dermis by equipment used in facial radiofrequency procedures.

Fever stimulates fibroblasts (a type of skin cell) to form new collagen. Procedures such as the neck, buttocks, and abdomen are almost applicable to the whole body.

When applied to the face, high-frequency procedures are effective. Of course, you can't see the effect once, and you need to have at least 6 treatments.


High-frequency surgical equipment

The efficacy of facial radiofrequency procedures has been proven through a variety of equipment. There are equipment such as massage, vitality, and electrical stimulation, all of which follow the same laws of physics.

Before starting the procedure, the skin must be clean. There should be no makeup residue or impurities that would interfere with the action of thermal energy.

A gel that acts as a conductor is applied to the skin to be applied. That is, it is a material that allows heat energy to pass well. After placing the selected equipment on the gel, move it gently.

In some cases, high-frequency facial treatments and hyaluronic acid are combined to maximize efficacy, but this is not common.

The following are three ways to proceed with high-frequency procedures.

Monopolar: targets fatty tissue deep in the dermis.

Bipolar: Target the epidermal layer.

Tripolar: Stimulates collagen and elastin formation and removes fat by combining monopolar and bipolar. The effect is good and it is the most recommended way today.

Besides high-frequency equipment, a gel that acts as a conductor is used.


Side effects and contraindications

The side effect of facial radiofrequency surgery is related to the penetration of heat into the skin. It is not a painful procedure, but it can stimulate the dermis by swelling it. In extreme cases, it can also cause a hematoma, but disappears later and is less common.

In some countries, there have been reports of changes in the conductivity of facial and trigeminal nerves after the procedure. This became a trigger for stricter precautions for those who should not undergo high-frequency procedures.

The following are contraindications for facial radiofrequency procedures according to international agreements.

  • Pregnant and lactating women: Fat cells that are removed by high-frequency procedures travel through the lymphatic system, which can go to the unborn baby or to a breastfeeding baby.
  • Patients with tumors: In general, patients with tumors are advised to wait 5 years from cure.
  • Patients with pacemakers: The heat generated by the equipment may disturb the function of the pacemaker.
  • Patients with severe heart disease: Thermal energy causes vasodilation and the removed fatty tissue travels through the blood vessels. Both situations can have adverse effects on people with heart disease. If you still want to undergo high-frequency facial treatment, you should talk to a cardiologist.
  • Side effects of radiofrequency face surgery
  • The main efficacy of facial radiofrequency surgery is collagen regeneration.


Efficacy of high-frequency facial treatment
More and more scientific research is being conducted around the world to confirm the efficacy of facial radiofrequency surgery. Collagen regeneration is the main efficacy of the radiofrequency procedure that has been proven to date. The new collagen restores elasticity and firms the skin, reducing wrinkles.

Thermal stimulation also promotes circulation in the area to which it is applied. It promotes lymph circulation as well as blood circulation, helping to release impurities such as cells and liquids.

The following are medical and mathematical figures from several studies.

After 3 months of treatment, the eyebrows rise to 1 mm.


The wrinkles in the throat are improved and wrinkles are reduced by 50% of the treatment area.
Sixty percent of patients undergoing the procedure show improved tone in both cheeks.
In addition, the majority of patients who have undergone the procedure show satisfaction, and patients who have undergone facial radiofrequency procedures are said to have benefited.
