To use the device for RF removal at home, as an alternative to plastic surgery or salon procedures, you need to have an idea of the capabilities of the device and the mechanism of action of its active elements on the skin.
The essence of this method lies in the influence of radio frequency on the skin and subcutaneous layer, as a result of which all layers of the epidermis are heated. This manipulation causes an increase in the density of the collagen fibers, which causes the skin to tighten and wrinkles to become smooth.
The procedure itself is considered quite innovative and has been adopted by cosmetologists recently. Due to its effectiveness, low trauma, lack of serious preparation and rehabilitation stages, it is acceptable for independent behavior.
How to select the device for home lifting?
To perform RF lifting at home, it is not necessary to use a very powerful system with many functions and modes of operation, which are intended for professional beauty salons.
Simply buy a portable device which:
- has the necessary strength to warm the treated area (for neck and décolleté, a little strength is enough, for the stomach, thighs, buttocks to break the cellulite orange peel - stronger);
- seamlessly adjusts optimal modes for different zones;
- compiled by trusted manufacturers;
- is safe for health;
- has guaranteed service.
Appliances for home use, which are used for lifting, can cause unpleasant sensations for owners of sensitive skin due to the impossibility of adjusting the depth of heating. Usually, this problem is solved with a cooling gel.
The most popular tools - cosmetologist's choice
Fans of RF lifting technology, who have appreciated the effectiveness of this technique, can easily continue with the procedure to improve their appearance without leaving the house. The main thing is to understand the wide variety of devices offered for manipulation of the lift by manufacturers working for the beauty industry.
Currently, there are monopolar, bipolar and multipolar models for sale, whose efficiency does not differ much from each other, except for the unipolar model - this model is able to warm the deeper layers of the dermis, giving stronger results. However, in this force there is also a danger of uncontrolled overheating of the untreated area, and as a consequence - provoking a side reaction of the body to radio frequency impulses.
High polarity allows for a more localized effect in a specific area, ensuring body safety. But the multi-pole RF lifting device at home is a real luxury, because the price for such a device is very high.
There are models of mobile devices that are popular with specialists and those who have decided to set up a beauty salon at home.
