Speaking of radio frequency (Radio Frequency energy device), many people may not know what it is. But if I say “Thermage”, “Thermal Lift”, I believe that the attention of the medical beauty you must know a little. Then, I want to tell you, in fact, “Thermage” is a kind of radiofrequency equipment, “Thermal Lift” is also, the difference is like a kind of smart phone system called “iOS”, there is a kind of system called “Android”, there is a kind of smart phone system called “iOS”, there is a kind of system called “Android”. One is called “Android”. Two years ago, when the “ultrasonic knife” was not yet widely used in clinical practice, radiofrequency was the ideal non-invasive treatment device to deal with “skin laxity”. The first generation of radiofrequency devices appeared in 2002, was approved by the U.S. FDA for clinical use in 2004, and was approved by the domestic CFDA to enter the Chinese market in 2006. Radiofrequency equipment uses radiofrequency energy to penetrate the skin, forming a temperature of about 45~60℃ under the skin, causing immediate contraction of the fibrous mediastinum and stimulating a large number of newborn and reorganization of collagen to build a brand new collagen fiber network, improving the skin’s support structure, and achieving the purpose of “tightening + lifting + wrinkles removal”. Radiofrequency treatment of the face before and after the comparison photo Compared to the ultrasonic knife, the biggest advantage of radiofrequency treatment lies in: can be treated in a wide range of large to the waist, abdomen, legs, cellulite, as small as the corner of the eye, the corner of the mouth of the small wrinkles can be treated; but the disadvantage is that, the onset of action time is relatively slow, usually takes 1 to 3 months, and part of the radiofrequency equipment, such as the “thermal lattice”. “Thermal Lift”, because of the consideration of the customer’s treatment comfort, and therefore the energy is mild, need to be treated several times (1 course of treatment 3 times, each interval of 3 ~ 4 weeks). Radiofrequency treatment of waist, abdomen and buttocks before and after comparison photo So, the question comes: ultrasonic knife and radiofrequency are both tightening and lifting effect, which one is more suitable for me? Our suggestion is that ultrasonic knife is more suitable for people who have a lot of facial fat and sagging, and focus on wanting to lift; radio frequency is more suitable for people who have less facial fat but more wrinkles, and focus on wanting to tighten the skin and remove wrinkles. If you want to achieve a more ideal state, then it is best to ultrasonic knife combined with radio frequency treatment at the same time. In addition, as both UltraSonic Knife and Radiofrequency are non-invasive anti-aging devices, there is generally no need for special care or contraindications after treatment, and you can wear makeup on the same day. Most people will experience facial flushing after treatment, which can be faded after 20 minutes of cold compress. A very small number of people may experience post-treatment edema, if there is no special, generally one week to reduce swelling.
