Commentary on Prospective Clinical Trial of the Latest Generation of Noninvasive Monopolar Radiofrequency for the Treatment of Facial and Upper Neck Skin Laxity
Abstract:M onopolar capacitive-coupled radiofrequency (MRF) was first approved for the treatment of rhytids in 2002, and since then, it has been an important tool for noninvasive, nonablative facial rejuvenation. Monopolar capacitive-coupled radiofrequency devices deliver a current that is converted to heat energy via the impedance of tissue. This results in denaturation of existing collagen and promotes neocollagenesis, leading to decreased skin laxity. 1 The article, "Prospective Clinical Trial of the Latest Generati… Show more
