RF lifting is a skin rejuvenation procedure based on radio frequency radiation. It is also widely used in surgical, cardiological and urological fields. However, this technology has gained the greatest popularity in aesthetic cosmetology. The radiofrequency lifting procedure is based on a beneficial radio wave electrical effect on the inner layers of facial skin, which are responsible for firmness and elasticity. RF lifting is used to quickly tighten the skin and correct the shape of the face. The procedure is safe for the patient, painless, and visible results are noticeable after the first session.

The essence of the method

A protein compound called collagen is responsible for prolonging the youth and beauty of the skin. It is what gives the skin firmness and elasticity. It is produced naturally in the body. Over the years, the skin loses its elasticity, the level of collagen decreases, it becomes dry, dehydrated, flabby, and covered with numerous wrinkles. The radiofrequency rejuvenation procedure, which also has another name - RF face lifting, will help solve this problem. The results from it delight clients and satisfy their basic needs: getting rid of age-related skin changes or inflammatory elements. After the first session, the visible result of the procedure lasts from 1 to 2 months. Therefore, to achieve maximum effect, you need to attend a course of procedures. On average, the final result after RF lifting lasts for five years, after which the course should be repeated.

It is worth noting the low pricing policy in this area of ​​cosmetology. The cost may vary depending on the number of procedures, the prestige of the medical center and the age of the client. The average price of one RF lifting procedure ranges from 4 to 8 thousand rubles. Do this procedure It is necessary only in highly specialized medical centers and must be carried out by a cosmetologist who has a certificate and documents on obtaining higher education in the field of medicine.

Equipment used for RF lifting

In specialized clinics, cosmetology equipment used for radiofrequency rejuvenation procedures is used in several types - unipolar, bipolar and combined action. When performing the procedure using monopolar equipment, the effect is clearly observed after just one session. This is due to the high power of the device. When using this type of cosmetology equipment, it is noted that the skin is injured during the procedure and requires a long period of rehabilitation. Therefore, now this type of technology is practically not used.

As for bipolar equipment, its effect is soft and lightweight. On such a device it is necessary to undergo a full course of procedures to achieve the final visible result after RF lifting. A device that combines the action of radio frequency waves and vacuum is called combined. This type of equipment is currently the most popular. Its essence lies in the fact that the radiofrequency pulse in a vacuum manifests itself in a more active and intense form, therefore the epicenter where the procedure will be carried out is subject to the strongest impact. Deep wrinkles and existing stretch marks are eliminated more effectively with the use of this equipment.

RF face lifting: reviews from cosmetologists

It is necessary to obtain an individual consultation with a qualified specialist in order to begin the RF facial lifting procedure. Reviews from cosmetologists on this matter indicate that if you ignore the consultation, and therefore the identification of contraindications, you can get a negative effect from the procedure. In addition, the patient's general condition may worsen. If no contraindications are found, the dermatocosmetologist will prescribe a specific course of procedures and determine the period after which the sessions need to be repeated. The opinions of cosmetologists also boil down to the fact that RF facial lifting is a comprehensive method of combating aging. During the procedure, the skin is not injured, the texture improves, wrinkles are corrected, and it brightens. age spots and vascular formations, and also returns healthy color faces. Cosmetologists note affordable price on this type of cosmetology services in comparison with other methods of combating age-related changes.

Correction of the area around the eyes

The radiofrequency rejuvenation procedure does not pose any danger even to such a delicate area on the face as the skin around the eyes. As is known, in this zone there is formed large number wrinkles: deep and fine, facial and age-related. The RF lifting procedure is capable of launching such a complex process as neocollagenesis (the natural production of collagen fibers). Radiofrequency rejuvenation performs lifting of the skin around the eyes. Drooping eyelids, small and deep wrinkles, loose skin, dark circles under the eyes, " crow's feet", swelling bags and other signs of fatigue and age-related changes - all these shortcomings can be eliminated by the radio wave rejuvenation procedure. For the skin around the eyes, RF lifting can be combined with injection methods of combating wrinkles. This approach will achieve the fastest and most lasting effect. RF procedure lifting has virtually no age restrictions. The results for patients. young more noticeable than in older patients, due to the fact that over time, collagen and elastin fibers become increasingly difficult to restore.

Before starting the procedure, you must consult a cosmetologist to identify any contraindications. Before starting the session, he uses the patient's wrist to test the device at the highest possible temperature. If side effects does not arise, the specialist will move on to the problem area on the face. The doctor cleanses the skin around the eyes and applies a contact agent. The procedure does not cause any discomfort. It is better to start doing RF lifting around the eyes when the first age-related changes occur. Particular importance should be given to choosing a medical center and finding a highly qualified dermatocosmetologist to perform the procedure.

Benefits of Radiofrequency Rejuvenation

Undoubtedly, RF lifting, like many other cosmetic procedures, has a number of advantages, thanks to which patients choose it more often than other rejuvenation techniques:

  • special cosmetology equipment, thanks to which there is no pain;
  • lack of a long recovery period;

When can I start doing radiofrequency rejuvenation?

RF lifting (radiofrequency rejuvenation procedure) is recommended for a quick effect on the face, neck, décolleté, hips, and arms in order to tighten and eliminate age-related changes. Radio wave exposure has a beneficial effect on blood circulation. The respiration of cells participating in metabolic processes resumes. Lightening pigment spots, dilated vascular formations, returning a fresh look to the skin and restoring its elasticity - all these results can be achieved thanks to the RF facial lifting procedure. Reviews from cosmetologists confirm this.

Radiofrequency rejuvenation combines cold effects on the skin, otherwise called cryotherapy. Due to stimulation of skin vessels, rejuvenation occurs in a natural biological way. Due to the instant cooling of the top layer and heating of the deeper layers of the skin, drainage is activated. The existing liquid at the treatment site is eliminated in a minimum period of time. RF lifting is a procedure that restores clear contours and a beautiful oval of the face.

How often can RF face lifting be done and how many procedures are needed for the best effect?

The required number of procedures is prescribed individually in consultation with a specialist involved in RF face lifting. Reviews from cosmetologists say that by doing the required number of procedures, you can get desired result. The number of sessions can vary from 6 to 15 visits. The interval between procedures should not exceed 14 days. For patients over fifty years of age, the interval between sessions is reduced to 7 days, and their number reaches the maximum possible. You can use the RF lifting procedure for the first time at the age of 20; thanks to it, the skin will remain young for a long time, and the manifestation of the first signs of aging will be minimized.

Radiofrequency rejuvenation: effect after treatment

RF facial lifting is a method based on the action of a radiofrequency pulse that can penetrate the deep layers of the skin to increase its elasticity without damaging these layers and mucous membranes, unlike injection techniques, surgical intervention. You do not need to prepare thoroughly for the procedure; it is enough to follow simple preparation instructions. After the RF facial lifting procedure, there is no long recovery period, which is also an important factor. If radio wave rejuvenation is performed on people over 20 years of age, then a single session is enough to refresh the complexion and slightly even out the skin texture.

Patients more mature age After completing a course of RF lifting, they note that the skin becomes more elastic and firm. The effectiveness of the procedure lies in the fact that the renewal of collagen, which is responsible for these skin qualities, will continue after the course of radiofrequency rejuvenation procedures has been completed. With RF face lifting, the effect of the procedure is observed after the first session. The skin takes on a fresh look, it becomes smoother, tighter, and scars left from acne are hidden. After the recommended course of procedures, wrinkles are noticeably reduced, age spots and vascular formations are lightened, facial contours are tightened, and some patients experience a decrease in swelling.

Carrying out the procedure: basic principles

Let's learn more about how RF facial lifting works. Before starting the radiofrequency rejuvenation procedure, you must consult a dermatocosmetologist.

Before the session, it is not recommended to apply cosmetics or use various types of creams on the face; it is necessary to free the face and neck area from jewelry. After the treatment areas have been cleaned, the specialist applies a specialized product that acts as a guide.

During the procedure, the patient feels a slight tingling and thermal effect. The cosmetologist, using the handle of the device, which transmits radio pulses, warms up problem areas to a certain temperature (approximately 42 degrees Celsius). The temperature is regularly checked by a specialist using an electronic thermometer to prevent burns or excessive dryness of the skin. The RF lifting procedure takes place within 30 minutes, is painless and does not cause discomfort to the patient.

I accept the privacy terms

We are accustomed to the fact that almost all hardware cosmetology services are provided in courses for maximum effectiveness. On the other hand, many of these manipulations are not cheap, and they also take a lot of time. How to find the golden mean between benefits and efficiency?

Scientific research on RF lifting is usually indicate a significant result after just one, maximum - two procedures. In practice, cosmetologists often prescribe a course of at least three or four, and sometimes more. In this case, both sides can be right, since much depends on the individual characteristics of the skin and the age of the patient. The site explains the nuances:

In what cases is a visible effect possible after just one session?

Radiofrequency lifting works as follows: the device generates electromagnetic waves that intensively heat the deep layers of the dermis. Under the influence of heat, collagen fibers - the protein that creates the framework of our skin - are denatured, that is, they become denser and shortened by about 1/3 of their original length. As a result, the skin contracts and tightens, which becomes clearly visible from the outside as soon as the swelling goes away (if they appeared in principle - similar side effect does not happen to everyone).

Our body perceives the changes in protein structures as damage and begins to restore them. Special cells - fibroblasts - are activated and begin to synthesize new collagen. This process starts within 3-4 weeks after the procedure and continues for up to 3-6 months. And only then can you evaluate the final result of RF lifting, which remains with the patient for a long time, up to 3-5 years.

  • Scientists from the Washington Institute of Dermatology and Laser Surgery studied the effects of radio waves on 50 women with mild to moderate sagging skin on the face and neck. The median age of the patients was 53.3 years (in contrast to the arithmetic mean, the median is a number on both sides of which exactly half of all values ​​in the series are located. That is, half of the patients were younger than 53.3 years, half were older). The subjects were exposed to a single exposure. The condition of the nasolabial folds and skin in the submandibular area was studied immediately after the procedure, then after 1 week, 1, 3 and 6 months. According to the results, the vast majority of study participants noted positive changes immediately after the session, and they reached their maximum by the 3rd month. There was no noticeable improvement in only 5 women; all of them were over 62 years old.

Thus, if age-related changes are relatively small, and the body’s internal potential for regeneration has not been exhausted, it may be enough to perform the RF lifting procedure 1-2 times. Then it will be enough to repeat it every 6-12 months in order to maintain the resulting rejuvenating effect.

When is a longer course needed?

With age, the activity of fibroblasts and their ability to restore the protein structures of the skin noticeably decrease. Such changes become especially noticeable by the age of 55-60, and sometimes even earlier - a lot depends on heredity, exposure to harmful external factors, etc.

In this situation, 1-2 sessions can still lead to clear improvements, but more often for a noticeable result a more extensive course is required - 3-6 procedures, carried out at intervals of 1 to 4 weeks (as a rule, 7 days is enough to restore the skin and the disappearance of possible “side effects”, such as swelling and redness). The final effect becomes cumulative and manifests itself in full force after a few months.

  • American scientists studied the rejuvenating effect of radio waves on 49 patients from 30 to 70 years old, median age - 59 years. 2 RF lifting procedures were performed, both on the lower third of the face and neck, with an interval of 1 month. The results were assessed after six months. Objective improvement occurred in 74% of the subjects, and subjectively 85% were satisfied with the effect.
  • Another study, also conducted in the USA: this time on 31 patients, median age - 56 years. They were given 3 sessions at an interval of 2 weeks, and the target area was the hands. After 3 months, the skin condition improved in a total of 89% of patients, in 50% these improvements were characterized as “well noticeable.”

What conclusions can be drawn?

Radio wave procedures provide a lifting effect after just a single exposure. However, the final number of sessions required for a full visible result largely depends on the age and general condition of the patient’s skin. Scientific research data and recommendations from cosmetologists indicate the following:

  • At the age of 30-40, while the reconstructive capabilities of our body are still great, and the signs of aging are not too pronounced, one or maximum two procedures in the basic course are enough, and then once every six months to a year - 1 session to maintain positive changes.
  • After 55-60, fibroblasts are no longer so active, so you should tune in for at least 3 procedures, and then 1-3 sessions every six months (depending on individual characteristics).
  • For ages between 40 and 55 years general recommendations no, the solution is in everyone specific case should be taken by a cosmetologist after an in-person examination of the patient.
  • It is believed that the effectiveness of RF lifting decreases with age, but in practice, qualitative changes can be achieved even in older people. age group- sometimes even without increasing the total number of procedures in the course.

Unfortunately, over the years female beauty and youth tend to leave only pleasant memories of themselves. Facial skin is the most susceptible to changes: loss of elasticity, sagging, fine wrinkles, etc.

Modern cosmetic technologies offer to solve these problems with the help of cosmetic procedures. Every specialist knows about rf facial lifting, what it is and why it is needed.

Thermolifting is a facial skin rejuvenation procedure using electrotherapy. During exposure to radiofrequency pulses of various frequencies, internal tissues heat up. As a result, their functional activity increases.


RF face lifting is cosmetic procedure, which helps smooth out wrinkles, tighten the oval of the face and improve skin elasticity.

Natural collagen growth occurs, the skin tightens, smoothes and acquires a beautiful, healthy color.

Despite the fact that electrical currents are applied to the skin, the process is absolutely painless. The procedure takes from 20 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the initial condition of the skin. The main rule after each session is to refrain from any thermal effects on the skin for 1 week.

I wonder what after a procedure such as RF facial lifting, the effect lasts for 1-2 months. This is a big plus for those who want to rejuvenate and refresh their appearance. To complete the full course, you will need to visit a cosmetologist about 7 times. Afterwards you should take a break for 2-3 years.

Indications for RF face lifting

One of the indications for carrying out, which can be called forced, is plastic surgery or after it. This helps to consolidate the effect.


The main indications for RF lifting are age-related skin changes.

If we are talking about simple desire to transform yourself, then the reasons to carry out RF facial lifting include the following:

  • consequences of acne and acne;
  • mimic and shallow age wrinkles;
  • dryness and sagging skin;
  • loss of facial contour;
  • fat deposits;
  • general skin aging;
  • bags under the eyes.

Thermolifting is a complete replacement for the surgical method of facelift, painless and not requiring rehabilitation.

Types of RF face lifting

Each area of ​​the face requires an individual approach. Depending on the problem requiring intervention and the method of correcting it, RF lifting is divided into a number of types.

The main types of RF lifting include the following:

  • fractional;
  • needle;
  • bipolar;
  • cavitation.

A specialist is responsible for choosing one or another lifting method., after carrying out the necessary examination.

Fractional RF lifting: features of the procedure, reviews

This type of lifting is one of the most modern methods. The rejuvenation process occurs due to the effect of electrical currents on the skin at the level of radio waves.

The method got its name by dividing the wave into fractions and penetrating the skin to different depths.

Fractional RF lifting, by heating the internal tissues, causes old collagen to disintegrate, while the breakdown products, passing through the blood vessels, are removed to the outside.

Instead of old collagen, new collagen is produced, the skin tightens, becomes firm and elastic.

Cosmetologists recommend this type of lift for those who have visible age-related changes on their face: loose skin, deep wrinkles in the nasolabial folds and around the eyes, scars. The average procedure time is 30-45 minutes.

To achieve good results, 1-3 procedures will be required, and the effect will last up to 3 years. Based on reviews from women who have experienced this procedure, we can conclude that fractional RF lifting brings only positive results.

The skin was rejuvenated, wrinkles were smoothed out, and there was no trace left of the bags under the eyes. Women began to look at themselves in the mirror more often, confidence in themselves and their beauty appeared.

RF needle lifting: features of the procedure, reviews

Needle lifting is one of the most effective methods combating facial skin problems. Suitable for eliminating beginning wrinkles, bags under the eyes, and post-acne.


Rf (RF) face lifting - what is it and what are the features of the procedure using micro-needle cartridges.

Its essence is to influence the skin not only with radiofrequency waves, but also with microneedles. During acupuncture, fatty deposits under the skin are broken down, wrinkles are smoothed out and new collagen is produced.

RF needle lifting involves the introduction of needles into the upper layers of the epidermis without violating its integrity.

Radio waves pass through the needles and affect problem areas. Although the skin is pierced, the process is not traumatic and is painless.

The procedure time ranges from 30 minutes to 2 hours. The number of sessions is determined individually by the cosmetologist. After needle lifting, tissue swelling, redness, and in some cases mild itching may be observed. These troubles disappear a few hours after the session.

Patients who have undergone a course of microneedling note that the method is painless, fast recovery after the procedure, thereby not falling out of your usual lifestyle.

Feedback from the facelift is only positive. Wrinkles, even deep ones, are smoothed out, the double chin disappears, and the face takes on a new, fresh look.

Bipolar RF lifting: features of the procedure, reviews

This method of RF lifting allows you to influence the facial skin using two electrodes and reduce the current strength by 2 times. The use of bipolar devices is considered the safest method of rejuvenation.

During the procedure, radio waves affect only the upper layers of the epidermis, having a gentle effect without damaging it. Due to the fact that bipolar lifting is carried out in a gentle manner, it will take more time to get the final result. But the result will please you for many years.

The main advantage of the procedure is the complete absence of contraindications.

This allows you to carry out lifting at any age and as many times as necessary. Those who have completed the full course of biopolar RF lifting are very pleased with the results. Having a fuzzy oval face, wrinkles and loose skin, looked several years younger, gained confidence in themselves and their beauty.

Cavitation RF lifting: features of the procedure, reviews

Cavitation is an innovation in the world of cosmetology. It gets rid of fat deposits and reduces volume, fights sagging skin. A low-frequency ultrasonic pulse, affecting subcutaneous fat, breaks it down.


Fat tissue is liquefied and naturally eliminated from the body. The peculiarity of this procedure is that, apart from fat deposits, no other layers are affected. Thus, cavitation can be considered an absolutely harmless procedure.

Salon treatments There are two types of cavitation: vacuum and laser.

The choice is made on an individual basis. Women, and men too, describe this procedure as the most effective. With minimal risk, maximum results are obtained. As a result, a positive result is visible: the skin is tightened, smooth, without excess fat deposits.

How does the RF lifting procedure work?

Many people know what rf facial lifting is, but not everyone is familiar with how this procedure takes place. Basically, the whole process is divided into 3 stages: preparation, the process itself and post-events.

Preparation

Before the procedure, the facial skin must be cleansed of cosmetics and peeling. If the skin is highly sensitive, a special anesthetic may be applied. Immediately before the start of the process, it is washed off.


Special markings help the specialist to evenly and symmetrically work on all areas of the face that require rejuvenation.

Special markings may be applied. It is necessary to ensure uniform passage through each treated area. Depending on the device, the skin is treated with a conductor gel.

Execution process

The cosmetologist passes the tip of the device over the skin, heating the surface to 45 °C. Thus, radio waves pass into the upper layers of the epidermis and break up fatty tissue. The lifting time is calculated individually. Usually it is 20-30 minutes.

After the procedure

Immediately after the procedure, a restorative cream is applied. After RF facial lifting, the skin may become red and slightly inflamed. This condition goes away after a few hours.

During the week, visits to swimming pools, saunas, baths and exposure to the open sun are prohibited.

Features of RF lifting around the eyes

The area around the eyes is considered one of the most sensitive. That's why everyone cosmetic procedures must be carried out with extreme caution. RF lifting around the eyes will get rid of sagging eyelids, fine wrinkles and bags.

RF facelift in general and separately in the area around the eyes has the same indications and contraindications. Thanks to this procedure, all the signs of aging that every woman hates so much go away.


RF lifting helps smooth out wrinkles around the eyes and restore youthful looks.

The procedure has no age restrictions. A woman at any age can get a “new” face and expressive eyes, with the only difference that in young people this process will happen a little faster. For lifting, monopolar and bipolar devices are used.

The advantages of RF lifting around the eyes over other types of cosmetic interventions are the complete absence of unpleasant sensations and the absence of a rehabilitation period.

Skin care after RF face lifting

Any facelift will come to naught if you do not follow the recommendations and take care of yourself after the procedure. After RF facial lifting, the renewed skin is sensitive, so it is easy to injure.

For some time, going to the solarium and the beach has been banned.

From bad habits It's also better to refuse. It is recommended to spend more time in the fresh air and carry out cosmetic procedures at home or in salons.

In beauty salons, a specialist may suggest undergoing a myostimulation procedure before RF lifting. This is the effect of electric current on problem areas, as a result of which the entire body is toned. Thus, subsequent lifting will bring better results.

What results can you expect after the procedure?

If the question arises: to carry out RF facial lifting or not, then the first visible problems have appeared. To prevent signs of aging, indications for the procedure begin as early as 25 years of age.

After completing all the sessions, a completely different personality is reflected in the mirror:

  • signs of aging and sagging skin go away;
  • nasolabial folds, wrinkles on the forehead and around the eyes are smoothed out;

RF lifting is a modern technique for rejuvenating the body and face. It is produced using special equipment, while radio frequency radiation affects the deep layers of the skin. After a course of treatment for six months, the effect increases, as the body begins to synthesize its own collagen and the dermis becomes stronger. This procedure is considered an excellent alternative to surgery. Another name for this technique is thermolifting.

Over time, the natural collagen found in skin cells becomes less and less. This is why elasticity is lost and age-related changes are noticeable.

During the RF lifting procedure, heating occurs to 60-65 degrees, fibrils (thread-like protein fibers) lose moisture, contract and become unable to stretch, and collagen molecules curl into tight spirals, creating a powerful lifting effect. Thus, a framework is created inside the dermis, due to which skin stretches. The process of self-rejuvenation begins. Moreover, this works not only during the session, but over the course of several months the result will only improve.

Reviews

“I decided to undergo RF lifting after being impressed by my friend’s results. At first, the cosmetologist treated only one half of my face, then showed me the difference. The effect is amazing right away. During the course I visited the clinic 8 times. They did it on different devices. The ones that are more expensive are better. Everything cost me 30 thousand rubles. My skin has tightened and I look much younger. I recommend it."

After 8 times, the oval of the face tightened, the bags and circles under the eyes disappeared. One session cost me 3 thousand rubles. In other salons you can pay twice as much for the same thing. After the whole course I became 7-8 years younger.”

“Age is taking its toll and it’s time to move on from homemade masks to salon ones. When I lost 14 kg, my skin was terribly saggy, I took an RF lifting course. The network of wrinkles has not disappeared anywhere, but has become significantly smaller, the oval of the face has become the same as before. The skin of the face tightened and became pleasant to the touch, the cheeks were like those of a baby. I’ll repeat it in a year.”
