What is Radio Frequency?

Radiofrequency (RF) current is an electrical current, typically with a frequency in the megahertz (MHz) range. RF current creates heat, and its use on the skin is appealing due to its ability to deliver heat to tissue non-specifically. Lasers also generate heat, but in a chromophore-specific manner (selective photothermolysis). RF delivers heat to tissues based on the properties of the tissue itself and is not dependant on chromophores (colors in the target).

What is Radio Frequency used for?

RF can be used to deliver heat in the dermis or second layer of skin. This dermal heating causes modification of collagen structure and stimulation of new collagen; these changes can help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in skin that is losing or has lost its natural elasticity.
