The RF lifting procedure takes from 10 minutes to 2 minutes, depending on the areas being treated during the procedure. The procedure is absolutely comfortable and painless, no anesthesia is required. A special gel is applied to the cleansed skin, after which it is treated with special attachments along certain lines. During the procedure, the client feels warmth on the face.

The procedure does not require any preliminary preparation.

Main areas for RF lifting

When working on the face – lifting the skin in the area of ​​the cheekbones and cheeks (non-surgical lifting), reducing nasolabial folds and deep facial wrinkles around the mouth, forming a clear facial contour and a significant reduction in various sagging (“double chin”, “jowls”, etc.) .

around the eyes are removed, the upper and lower eyelids are lifted, bags under the eyes are noticeably reduced and the sagging of the upper eyelid is reduced.

In the area of ​​the lip contour – reduction of vertical wrinkles above the upper lip, formation of a clearer lip contour.

When treating the hands , the elasticity and tone of the skin increases, the expression of veins decreases as a result of an increase in skin density, the skin of the hands ceases to show age.

When performing body procedures - lifting and improving skin texture (smoothing stretch marks), eliminating fat deposits on the hips, above the knees, on the inner thighs, buttocks, sides and abdomen, reducing cellulite, tightening and strengthening abdominal skin that has sagged after childbirth or sudden weight loss, breasts are tightened and lifted, sagging skin on the back of the arms is tightened.

Absolutely any part of the body is treated: face, arms, décolleté, buttocks, stomach, sides. Through thermolifting you can get rid of stretch marks (stretch marks). Thus, the use of RF lifting allows you to perform a facelift without major surgical intervention.

Monopolar

Devices with two or more electrodes are used to influence the skin. For monopolar devices, the active electrode is located in the handpiece, the passive electrode is located separately, it is attached to the body next to the area that will be treated:

• When affecting the décolleté area - in the collar area;
• When treating the abdomen - on the buttocks;
• For procedures on the inner thigh, the electrode is attached to the outer surface.

Monopolar lifting has the deepest, most powerful and uniform effect on tissue. The processing temperature reaches +50…+60 degrees.

Most often, this procedure is used to combat cellulite and shape the figure. The most effective treatment is the abdomen, sides, buttocks and thighs. These areas have the greatest thickness of skin and subcutaneous fat. The handpiece has a large area, which facilitates the work of the cosmetologist.

On the face, the layer of dermis and hypodermis is much thinner; monopolar devices are used extremely rarely for this area.

Treatment with a monopolar device has some disadvantages:

• After the procedure, burns and scars may appear on the skin;
• The condition of the subcutaneous tissue changes;
• There may be a negative impact of secondary magnetic waves on internal organs.

The monopolar RF lifting procedure can be performed only once.

How is the radiofrequency therapy procedure performed?

At the RAMI Clinic, the radiofrequency therapy procedure is performed using the ReGen TriPollar RF device . This is a professional, comprehensive system proven by clinical studies.

Before starting the procedure, the cosmetologist applies glycerin to the patient’s skin (this will improve the glide of the handpiece over the skin). Next, the doctor places the device attachment (manipulator) on the patient’s body, after which he moves it over the surface of the skin with smooth and gentle movements. Thus, the electric current penetrates deep skin structures and has a warming effect. At the same time, the surface of the skin does not heat up.

The procedure is absolutely painless; during the session, patients feel a slight vibration, which is similar to a light massage. After the session, slight redness is possible, which will disappear after 1 - 2 days.

• the duration of one ReGen TriPollar RF facial procedure is 15 - 20 minutes;
• The duration of the procedure on the body (one zone) is 15 - 40 minutes.

On average, a course of ReGen TriPollar RF procedures consists of 5 - 8 sessions. Procedures are carried out once every 7 - 10 days. Sessions can be held at any time of the year, including during the active sun season.

A course of procedures will ensure a reduction in skin area by 10 - 20% and will give results that are comparable to the effect after surgical tightening.

The mechanism of RF lifting

Before performing this method of facelift, the doctor must collect anamnesis and examine the patient. During the consultation, a medical specialist answers any questions that may arise, and after the session gives individual recommendations for skin care.

Stages of facial rejuvenation using RF lifting:

1. The patient removes jewelry and wardrobe items that contain metal elements.
2. The area where RF lifting will be performed is cleaned.
3. A contact agent is applied to maximize the transmission of impulses into the tissues of the face or body.
4. RF lifting of the body or face is performed using a hardware handpiece.
5. The device performs massage movements for 20-30 minutes. At the same time, the temperature is constantly monitored; it should not exceed 40 - 42 degrees Celsius.

Face and body lifting is performed without anesthesia; during the procedure, the patient feels a light, pleasant warmth. To achieve maximum results, experts recommend taking a course of 6 sessions.

After RF lifting, the patient may notice the following results::

• face lift,
• elimination of sagging skin,
• smoothing wrinkles,
• restoration of tone and elasticity,
• skin looks fresh and rested,
• skin tightening gives the effect of visual rejuvenation of the face and body for 5-7 years,
• skin microrelief improves,
• minor skin imperfections are eliminated,
• pigment spots and circles under the eyes become less noticeable or disappear altogether,
• the tone is evened out,
• the depth of wrinkles becomes smaller,
• vascular formations are eliminated.

Who is suitable for radiofrequency therapy?

Radiofrequency therapy is very popular in modern cosmetology.

The technique is used for:

• face and body skin tightening;
• cellulite treatment;
• elimination of double chin and voluminous cheeks;
• restoration of dull, sagging skin.

In addition, radiofrequency therapy has anti-inflammatory, vasodilating, analgesic, antispastic, trophic and muscle relaxant effects.

Possible side effects

Many people are afraid that the technique uses high-frequency current, but the procedure is gentle and has virtually no negative consequences. After RF lifting, swelling and redness in the treatment area, itching, exacerbation of herpes, and increased skin sensitivity are sometimes observed. If the device is set incorrectly, burns may occur. Usually the discomfort goes away after a few days. If this does not happen, you should visit a dermatologist.

Most often, the negative consequences of RF lifting are associated with the unprofessionalism of the doctor, so you need to approach the choice of a clinic and specialist responsibly. Another reason for side effects is improper skin care after the procedure.

For the first few days after the session, you should not apply any cosmetics to the treatment site and do not engage in active sports (excessive sweating will not benefit the skin) or swimming in the pool. It is also worth protecting the body from exposure to high temperatures: avoid direct sunlight, refrain from visiting a solarium, bathhouse, or sauna.

If you do the procedure with a trusted specialist and follow precautions, after a few days the swelling and redness will disappear, and you will be able to admire your toned figure in the mirror without signs of cellulite and stretch marks.

Lymphatic drainage body massage technique

How to do lymphatic drainage massage? When performing manual lymphatic drainage massage, the specialist performs all massage movements along the paths along which the lymphatic fluid flows. The movements of the hands performing the massage are smooth - stroking or squeezing, directed towards the large lymph nodes. There is no massage effect on the lymph nodes.

The lymphatic drainage massage scheme is as follows: the massage therapist’s movements are directed towards the lymph nodes:

• parotid;
• submandibular;
• subclavian;
• axillary;
• elbow;
• inguinal;
• popliteal

Before performing general lymphatic drainage massage, specialists at the Yusupov Hospital use the surging technique. It consists of performing wave-like massaging movements in the areas that surround the largest lymph nodes, distributed over the entire surface of the body. Starting from the collarbones, the massage therapist gradually moves towards the solar plexus. After this, massages the muscles around the lymphatic vessels located in the navel and groin area.

Turning to the back, the massage therapist activates the lymph nodes concentrated in the lumbar region, and then the collarbones, elbows and armpits. Repeat all massage movements at least five times. After this, he begins a general lymphatic drainage massage of the body.

How does RF lipolysis work?

Collagen fibers help keep our skin toned and in good condition; with age, this material breaks down, becomes brittle and loose.

RF means “electrical current in the radio frequency range,” that is, the rf handpiece transmits impulses to your skin. When they come into contact with the internal contents of the skin, they heat them up (in particular collagen and elastin). These skin elements have the properties of a protein, that is, they can fold under the influence of temperatures. Thanks to compaction, they become more rigid and now provide an excellent framework for maintaining the tone of your skin.

Also, with the help of impulses, we launch another process - RF lipolysis. During heating, fat cells begin to break down much faster into glycerol and fatty acids, and are then easily removed from our body naturally.
