Skin tightening using microneedle radiofrequency

Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of using a bipolar microneedle radiofrequency for skin tightening among Asians.

Introduction: Real-time Temperature-controlled bipolar fractional radiofrequency system has been investigated.

Materials / method: Twenty eight Asian patients were enrolled in the study. Each patient was treated with bipolar radiofrequency device for one treatment. All patients were treated with local anesthesia prior to treatment. Patients were examined a week and 3-12 months after laser treatment. A skin analysis imaging system was used to objectively evaluate each patient.

Results: All patients tolerated the treatments. Immediate pinpoint bleeding was observed in all patients. Ecchymosis was observed in five patients but it disappeared within two weeks. Scar, hypopigmentation was not observed in any patients. Mild hyperpigmentation was observed in one patient. Mild to moderate improvement with volumizing effect was seen in every patient.

Conclusion: Real-time temperature-controlled bipolar microneedle RF is a highly reproducible, safe, effective nonsurgical treatment of facial rejuvenation and provides important insights into neocollagenesis and clinical outcomes in Asians.

Focused Microplasma Nonsurgical Blepharoplasty for Skin Laxity of Upper and Lower Eyelids

Objectives: and psychological consequences. Recently, the growing demand of noninvasive treatment procedures have promoted alternative treatment technologies to standard of care surgical procedures. Radiofrequency (RF) microplasma emits high energy sparks (plasma) which induce controlled epidermal micro-ablation injuries coupled with dermal coagulation. This dual effect promotes both epidermal and dermal remodeling. A novel, focused microplasma single tip was tested as a nonsurgical treatment for upper and lower eyelid skin laxity.

Introduction: To evaluate the clinical improvement and collagen remodeling of upper and lower eyelid dermatochalasis.

Materials / method: Ten patients were subjected with upper and lower eyelid laxity were included in the study. Eyelid dermatochalasis was rated as absent (0), mild (1), mild-moderate (2), moderate (3) severe, significantly severe (0-5) according to the facial laxity rating scale. Patients received a single Radiofrequency (RF) microplasma treatment session. Clinical evaluations was carried out by comparison of photographic images acquired at baseline and 12 weeks following treatment.,. Patients rated their satisfaction, tolerance and down time. Adverse effects were recorded.

Results: Clinical improvement of 2.2 ratings was observed at clinical evaluation. 8/10 were highly satisfied or satisfied. The average downtime was 7.3 days. No severe adverse effects were demonstrated

Conclusion: Focused Radiofrequency (RF) microplasma technology is a safe and effective treatment option with clinically improved appearance of dermatochalasis.

Skin tightening: island doctor's point of view

Objectives: Skin tightening: Practical point of view of an aesthetic doctor practicing in an isolated French tropical territory with a very mixed population

Introduction: A tropical paradise isn’t necessarily always paradise due to the major distance from the metropolis: France.

Materials / method: Review of the different techniques universally adopted in skin tightening: devices and injections.

Results: Need for a reasoned choice of devices and techniques in order to achieve the result.

Conclusion: Non-surgical skin tigthening is of great service but you have to choose the right candidates to obtain maximum satisfaction...
