Introduction

The rejuvenation method using radiofrequency devices is used to strengthen the skin, eliminate wrinkles, acne and acne scars in many cosmetic clinics.
High-frequency devices promote effective tissue regeneration through neocollagenesis - the production of new young collagen. Electric currents of high-frequency devices induce volumetric heating of the affected area, which, as is known, causes an electrothermal reaction, the degree of which depends on the total resistance of the tissue 1-5. At the moment when the skin is exposed to RF, electrical currents are absorbed by water, blood vessels and collagen fibers. Thus, electrothermal reactions coagulate dermal tissues and induce cell proliferation as well as the secretion of cytokines and growth factors for tissue repair 6 - 7 . Conventional monopolar radiofrequency devices deliver radiofrequency energy to areas of the skin through a return electrode attached to another area of ​​the body, while conventional bipolar radiofrequency devices have a handpiece that is equipped with both delivery and return electrodes 1-4. However, the penetration depth of RF energy in the handpiece of conventional bipolar RF devices is limited to less than half the distance between the electrodes. Both types of conventional RF devices require protection of the epidermis to safely emit higher levels of RF energy to properly induce dermal tissue regeneration.

Fractional needle bipolar radiofrequency systems deliver radiofrequency energy into the skin using a microneedle handpiece, allowing precise depth control in the dermis and promoting safer treatment of damaged skin areas. Such systems emit higher energy to areas of the dermis, which helps protect the epidermis from damage compared to other fractional lasers 8. Fractional RF systems generate cocoon-shaped zones of coagulation, while ablative fractional laser devices create cone-shaped zones of photothermal treatment with wide coverage of the epidermis and narrower in the dermis 8-9. Treatments using fractional high-frequency devices are minimally invasive and require short treatment times. The feasibility of using a fractional bipolar microneedle RF system with five linear bipolar microneedle pairs was first reported by Hantash et al. 7 Since then, other types of fractional microneedle RF devices equipped with 25-49 microneedles in a disposable tip have been developed and used for correction of facial wrinkles and treatment of acne vulgaris and atrophic scars 6-10.

The impedance (resistance) of tissue and the dielectric constant of the skin are determined by the interaction of the skin with high frequency current 7-11-13. The higher impedance and lower dielectric constant of the lower reticular dermis or subcutaneous fat layer results in a larger but less concentrated thermal effect zone with RF radiation compared to the upper papillary dermis, which has a lower impedance and higher dielectric constant 7-11- 13. Although prior determination of tissue impedance and treatment temperature can be taken into account when determining optimal RF parameters, there is already collected data on detailed skin-RF interactions that can be used as useful information to determine therapeutic efficacy and prevent side effects 11 This scientific article confirms the effectiveness and safety of the Scarlet RF fractional microneedling system for the correction of facial wrinkles in a study of 204 patients.

Eight facts about the SCARLET S attachment

The main tool of the Scartet S device is the nozzle. It has a number of unique advantages unique to it: ⠀ 1. The needles are not insulated, which ensures the supply of current along their entire length. This ensures coagulation of blood vessels, which eliminates the appearance of the “blood dew” effect and speeds up the rehabilitation process. ⠀ 2. Gold-plated microneedles prevent the appearance of harmful oxides on them during operation. ⠀ 3. They also have an antiseptic effect on the skin. ⠀ 4. The nozzle contains 25 needles per 1 square centimeter - only this ratio ensures correct and safe distribution of RF energy, as well as absolutely physiological heating of all layers of the skin. ⠀ 5. The tissue around the needles is heated in a drop-like manner, which prevents the formation of epidermis burns. ⠀ 6. Thanks to high-quality sharpening of needles, the nozzle has a high resource - that’s more than 5000 punctures! Therefore, one procedure can treat an unlimited number of patient areas. ⠀ 7. The diameter of the needles is only 0.2 mm, and the distance between them is calculated precisely, which ensures minimal trauma and painlessness for the patient during the procedure. ⠀ 8. The photodynamic LED therapy system developed by NASA specialists is integrated into the nozzle. The nozzle has a blue spectrum of light waves, which have a powerful anti-inflammatory effect. The blue spectrum is free from the negative effects of ultraviolet rays. ⠀

Feedback from whatsapp

Good evening!
I would like to leave my feedback about the procedure. About two months ago, I underwent a radiofrequency thermolifting procedure using the Scarlett rf device. The result was visible within a month. By the age of 42, I had tried a lot, but I only got such an amazing effect from Scarlett rf. The face is very fresh. Girls, I advise!!! The only thing is that the marks on the neck do not last much longer. So now is the time to freshen up for the New Year! gulnazmlngati gulnazmlngati

Features of fractional bipolar RF with SCARLET S microneedles

A patented feature of SCARLET S is that all of its 25 microneedles are coated with 24-karat gold, which prevents the manifestation and development of any allergic reactions both during the procedure and after it. A nozzle with the finest gold-plated microneedles (gold improves the conductivity of radio frequency) - which deliver RF energy concentrated to the desired layer of skin, and also, working on the principle of acupuncture, additionally stimulate the regenerative potential of tissues.

The minimally invasive effect of microneedles on the skin completely eliminates the risk of burns. In addition, using an LED indicator with 4 LEDs and a wavelength of 450 nm, a wound healing, anti-inflammatory and soothing effect is achieved.

What do you need to know before the procedure?

Unlike many rejuvenation techniques that require special preparation, micro-needle RF lifting is unpretentious, although some rules will have to be followed. Basic requirements before the procedure:

• try not to drink alcohol for several days, give up cigarettes;
• do not take drugs that impair blood clotting;
• do not perform manipulations with the face that can lead to injury to the epidermis;
• undergo an examination by a doctor who will help determine whether there are any contraindications.

Important! If a cosmetologist has recommended a fractional lift, you will also have to purchase attachments for the procedure yourself - this guarantees complete safety and sterility of facial manipulation.

Indications

Who is RF needle lifting indicated for? Women with the following problems can safely undergo the procedure:

• age-related aging of the skin;
• early signs of aging (photoaging);
• profuse rashes;
• welts or scars;
• pigment spots;
• active work of the sebaceous glands, leading to the formation of enlarged pores;
• dark, unsightly bags under the lower eyelids of the eyes;
• sagging skin.

Important! The effect of the procedure lasts up to 3 years, but it is often necessary to carry out several sessions, especially if the defects on the face are too obvious and deep.

Contraindications

Needle face lifting is considered safe, but has several contraindications that do not allow resorting to this method of rejuvenation. The procedure is not recommended for the following health problems:

• diabetes;
• problems with blood vessels or heart;
• chronic or infectious diseases at the peak of exacerbation;
• the presence of malignant tumors;
• pregnancy or breastfeeding period.

It is also not recommended to perform a facelift if there are inflammatory processes on the face or fresh burns.

Efficiency of procedures

Another question that interests women who are just about to undergo the procedure is how long does the effect last? A pleasant surprise awaits them - fractional RF lifting with microneedles will allow them to forget about visiting a cosmetologist for several years.

According to reviews, the effect after manipulation lasts at least a year and a half. If you carry out proper care at home (use masks, creams), your face will remain youthful for up to 3 years. Only after this can aging continue, and this will happen much slower than before the procedure.

Frequency of procedures

Despite the excellent results after the first use of a special technique, it will not be possible to limit yourself to one session. Patients are pleased that to achieve the optimal effect, only 3 courses are needed, with a break between them, allowing the epidermal tissues to fully recover.

Needle fractional RF lifting is recommended to be repeated every few years - this will significantly slow down the aging process. The use of the technique stimulates dermal cells to activate their work, which does not require frequent use of the device.

Rehabilitation period

Fractional radiolifting has another undeniable advantage over other rejuvenation methods - it does not require a long rehabilitation period. After manipulation of the face, minor red spots or swelling may appear, but they disappear within just a few days. It is not recommended to use any drugs to speed up the process.

The only requirement imposed by cosmetologists is not to touch the treated areas of the skin with your hands and not to use decorative cosmetics. Failure to follow the rules can lead to infection in the epidermal tissue. You should not immediately go to the sauna or bathhouse after the tightening; this will also not have a beneficial effect on the condition of the skin.

RF lifting effect

• immediate lifting effect due to moderate dermal swelling and controlled thermal contractions of the collagen fibers of the skin;
• delayed effect, which is achieved by triggering a number of compensatory mechanisms and processes of neocollagen production when the dermis is heated.
• the collagen framework is restored, which ensures skin rejuvenation: reduces its area, increases elasticity, reduces the size and depth of wrinkles.
• improvement of blood microcirculation due to thermal effects;
• stimulation of lipolysis;
• stimulation of an accelerated change in generations of adipocytes, resulting in the renewal and replacement of hypertrophied fat cells with healthy ones;
• release of triglycerides under the influence of heat, which are broken down into glycerol and fatty acids, after which the latter are excreted from the body.

Look what a great result our client got!

Photos before and after 2 microneedle radiofrequency thermolifting procedures using the SCARLETT RF device.

As a result, we received a pronounced lifting of the face, the oval tightened, the contour became clearer, the skin tone improved, the relief was smooth, wrinkles were less noticeable, even facial wrinkles, not visible in this photo - but the eyebrows were noticeably raised, the upper eyelids opened.

And even in the photo you can see that the skin of the earlobes has become younger (this is also important for the perception of the face as a whole). The procedure can be performed on any area of ​​the face and body.

Flabby, sluggish, atonic skin of the abdomen, stretch marks. What treatment methods can we offer?

• Chemical peels
• Mesotherapy
• Plasmatherapy
• Radiofrequency thermolifting using the SCARLET RF device

⠀ The most effective is the radiofrequency thermolifting procedure. It is performed using a special attachment with gold-plated needles. A radiofrequency pulse is applied to them, the needles are heated to a temperature of 60°-65°. Old collagen is destroyed and new collagen is formed. As a result, the skin becomes elastic, dense, and the tissues contract. Skin tightening occurs. In the case where there are stretch marks (striae), they become almost invisible. ⠀

• The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and is well tolerated.
• The rehabilitation period is reddening of the skin in less than a day.
• For a good result, a course of 3-5 procedures is required. Multiplicity: 1 time every 30-40 days.

⠀ There are several restrictions before the procedure, so a doctor’s consultation is needed. Our experience in carrying out this procedure is a guarantee of a good result!

conclusions

The advantage of high-frequency devices is that they heat the dermis to a certain temperature and cause immediate stimulation and contraction of collagen fibers, resulting in neocollagenesis. The mechanism of action of this technique is believed to be due to the fact that water, collagen, melanin and dermal microvessels absorb radiofrequency energy, creating a volumetric heating effect of the dermis and inducing the synthesis of cellular mediators and the secretion of growth factor, which leads to rapid and precise healing. However, high temperatures (over 65 degrees) change the natural properties of collagen, although they provide more pronounced results. If RF energy penetrates too deep, adipocytes are destroyed, and if it penetrates too deep to the surface, skin burns or hyperpigmentation may occur. Heating the dermis to an effective temperature while maintaining the temperature at a level that is safe for the skin surface is a very difficult task. The reason for the dangerous penetration of energy (heating) of the skin to an indefinite and varying depth can be different thickness of the skin, the degree of its hydration, differences in the volume of collagen and fat.

The concept of fractional skin resurfacing is the preferred skin rejuvenation treatment for most devices. Almost all RF devices use volumetric rather than fractional heating. However, recently, high-frequency devices have been provided with special protection of surrounding tissues, due to which, after such procedures, healing is much faster, they are painless and have a lower risk of complications. Heating skin tissue using microneedles is more predictable, precise and safe.

Hantash and his colleagues 7 were the first to demonstrate a method of influencing human skin using a minimally invasive radiofrequency device and a bipolar electrode system. Radiofrequency thermal zones in the dermis were created as a result of exposure to a manipulator using microneedles 7.

In the present study, a fractional microneedling high-frequency system was used for the correction of facial wrinkles. The therapeutic effects of this system apparently resulted from the heating of tissue by RF radiation, as well as the induction of collagen resulting from the penetration of microneedles. The microneedles of the high-frequency system used in the present study were not isolated, whereas in the previous study the high-frequency device was proximally isolated to protect the epidermis from RF heating at the treated sites. Possible side effects associated with high-frequency heating of the epidermis, including burns, crusting, prolonged erythema, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and scarring, were not observed after use of the high-frequency system with non-insulated microneedles. On the contrary, there was a therapeutic effect on the epidermis, in particular a marked improvement in skin texture.

In conclusion, the present study confirmed the effectiveness and safety of a method for correcting aesthetic skin imperfections—facial wrinkles in Fitzpatrick skin types III–IV—using a fractional non-isolated microneedling RF system. The results obtained after the final session continued to improve over time, and patients were very satisfied with the results of the procedure. However, because the subcutaneous fat layers in the forehead and periorbital areas are relatively thin, the high-frequency microneedling procedure may cause slight pain. Since the skin of the cheeks is thicker than other areas of the face, pain in these areas is less pronounced. Delivery of high-frequency energy to deeper areas of the skin was necessary and was ensured by repeated exposure to the same area using a fractional microneedling RF system, which carefully controls the depth of penetration of microneedles.
