Fractional RF
What are the steps for performing fractional RF?
On the day of treatment, it is better to see women with clean skin without makeup, and men with a shaved face. The treatment area will be covered with local anesthetic creams. After 20-30 minutes, the skin at the treatment site will be washed and disinfected. The treatment session will last about 25-10 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Before starting the treatment, each person buys a series of special needles. To prevent the transmission of the disease, each head can be used only for one person and its use for another person (even relatives) is prohibited, and it is necessary to bring this needle in the next sessions. After treatment, the skin can be cooled and soothed using an ice pack. Applying a repair cream after an ice pack helps reduce skin inflammation faster.
This method is forbidden in pregnant women and people who have heart batteries and severe inflammatory diseases of the skin.
What is post-treatment care like?
Sunscreen should be started immediately after treatment if done at the day timeand regular use is necessary once a day and every 3 hours. Gentle washing of the skin is allowed on the day of treatment, but do not use strong cleansers. In the first 24 hours, it is better to avoid bathing, sauna and swimming pool. If you use night creams, anti-wrinkle, exfoliating and blemish creams, it is better to avoid using them to eliminate skin inflammation. It is better to use a repair cream at night for a week and use a moisturizer if the skin is dry.
When can we see therapeutic changes?
The observation of therapeutic changes is based on the changes in collagen in the skin, which is different in different people. The first changes in collagen begin about 3 weeks after the treatment session and reach their maximum intensity after 3 months, but continue after that. Therefore, the initial changes are seen 2-3 weeks after treatment, but the basic changes caused by treatment reach a maximum in the third month after treatment, but will continue even after that. Therefore, the initial changes that appear soon after RF are due to the contraction of collagen fibers and the main but delayed changes are due to the production of new collagen.
What is the number of treatment sessions and the intervals between sessions?
The number of sessions varies depending on the therapeutic goal and the severity of the skin involvement. For rejuvenation and lifting of facial skin, between 3-4 sessions of treatment with an interval of one month is recommended, and for the continuation of treatment after this course of treatment, one or two sessions can be repeated every year.
What are the advantages of this method?
The most important advantage of RF is that energy is given exactly to the dermis (the second layer of skin). For this reason, the surface layer of the skin is not damaged and only the skin may be red for 24-48 hours (but in some cases this redness may last for 5-7 days). This advantage also causes this action in people with darkskin can also be done and. A quick return to work without a break is also one of the benefits of RF.
Possible side effects of this method are redness and blemishes that can be prevented or treated with precautions
