Objectives: Radiofrequency (RF)-based devices are used to improve face and neck laxity, a major feature of aging that until recently could only be addressed with surgery. Although these treatments are not meant to replace surgical procedures, patient satisfaction studies have been consistently high. For physicians offering these skin rejuvenation procedures, it is essential to have intimate knowledge of how the devices work, select appropriate candidates, set realistic expectations, and combine treatments to optimize outcomes.
Introduction: Oligio is a radiofrequency (RF)-based devices are used to improve face and neck laxity, a major feature of aging that until recently could only be addressed with surgery. The heat induces both immediate collagen contraction and delayed collagen synthesis, by thermal induction of fibroblasts. Cumulative experience with monopolar RF has led to better, more reproducible, and better-tolerated results as treatment protocols and devices have evolved.
Materials / method: 24 female patients 24-62 yo
2 male patients 38-54 yo
MRF Oligio
Results: With adaptable applicators, it allows for precise targeting of different facial areas, including the sensitive regions around the eyes, making it a versatile option for individuals with varying skin tightening needs. This flexibility, combined with the comfort of the cooling technology in the Oligio system, allows for a nearly painless experience, despite the sophisticated interaction of cooling and heating to ensure safety and enhance efficacy.
Conclusion: Leveraging non-invasive radiofrequency energy, it stimulates the production of collagen, the protein essential for maintaining the skin’s elasticity and firmness. This process not only tightens loose skin but also ensures long-lasting results, setting a new standard in the realm of non-surgical facelift solutions.
