THE RADIO FREQUENCY: RENEW FACE&BODY
What is it
Radio Frequency treatments are one of the new frontiers in aesthetic medicine. They are successfully
applied as a non-invasive method for skin rejuvenation and achieve results that are very close to those
obtained by surgical facelifts.
This powerful technique is also widely applied in the treatment of cellulite, loose tissues and localized
adiposity.
Radio Frequency treatments are based on emissions of high-frequency radio waves and exploit the highpower thermal energy produced by the tissues when they are exposed to radio waves. The intensity of the
thermal effects depends on the conductivity of the tissues subjected to treatment. Tissues having greater
impedance, such as adipose (fatty) tissues, generate more heat and the thermal effects are consequently
greater.
Radio Frequency treatments are based on the principle that treated areas exhibit an increase in
temperature, conveying energy to the deep dermis and the subcutaneous layers.
This improves cell functions and blood circulation, stimulates the lipolysis (breakdown) of subcutaneous fat
and increases the synthesis of collagen.
Where it acts and effects
Radio Frequency treatments act on the tissues and produce the following results:
- three-dimensional contraction of collagen fibres, with a 360 volume effect
- Drawing of liquids up to the surface
- Improvements in the micro-circulation system
- Removal of toxins
- Synthesis of new collagen
- Tightening of tissues
- Smoothing of tissues (lifting effect)
- Restructuring of the skin
- Increased skin density in the short term
- Oxygenation of tissues
General applications modalities in aesthetic
Radio Frequency treatments can be carried out at any time of the year without upsetting the subjects daily
lifestyle.
The initial effects can be seen immediately and gradually progress during the following weeks.
The use in aesthetic
The Radio Frequency treatments are applied on the following imperfections:
- Body tissue relaxation
- Cellulite
- Fat
- Stretch marks
- Atony of breast muscles
- Aging of face and neck tissues
- Wrinkles
- Scars
- Tissue gaps
- Asphyxial skin
- Acne

TREATMENT PROTOCOL
Depending on the type of problem to be treated, the operator will choose the more suitable program,
following the table on page 9.
Preparing the client
The treatment room must have a comfortable temperature in order to avoid shivers or muscular tremors.
The client must be in as comfortable position as possible; it is recommended, like in other cases of physical
treatment, to explain to the client, prior to treatment, which sensation is to be expected.
Also ensure that you are aware and able to follow all indications relating to safety.

PRELIMINARY TREATMENT PROTOCOL

Estetic Italia proposes the method to rejuvenate, smooth and regenerate tissues, quickly and without
contraindications, thanks to the use of Renew Face & Body.
Before every face and body treatment, the use of the Softlight laser unit is recommended, with
programmes (1-13-16-27) for 15 minutes. This treatment allows to create a vasodilatation which favours
the microcirculation, the collagen synthesis, and notably improves the oxygenation of tissues.
It is recommended to subsequently apply the Bodyson 8 ultrasound unit with gel for 10 minutes, using the
face applicator or body plates which, thanks to the mechanical, thermal and chemical effects, prepares the
tissue causing the permeability and temperature increase of the cellular membrane, as well as the
acceleration of the tissues particles.
This pre-treatment system allows the subsequently applied radio frequency, to act deeply, completely and
in a long lasting manner

23 / 46

RENEW FACE & BODY

DESCRIPTION OF UNIT
RENEW FACE & BODY is a radio frequency unit for aesthetic use which uses, inside the body, a 470 KHz
frequency emission without causing sensory stimulation of the motor nerves or causing muscle contractions and
discomfort.
The biological effect of the heat produced by Radio Frequency waves on the skin consists in the denaturation of
collagen fibres (5 to 20% of total fibres), which cause their immediate contraction and a progressive effect lasting
for the following 4 to 6 months.
As required by Van't Hoffs principle, any reaction whose speed depends on heat is accelerated by an increase
in temperature. The increase in the metabolism depends directly on the increase in heat.
The increased metabolism causes an increase in the demand for oxygen and nutrients and the production of
catabolites and metabolites.
The heating of the body parts subjected to treatment produces various results:
-

Improvement and stimulation of local blood circulation

Reabsorption and drainage of liquids in excess
Reabsorption of local edemas (swellings)
Removal of fat deposits
Reduction of cellulite
Improvement of tissue elasticity

The unit for RENEW FACE & BODY radio frequency for aesthetic use
The RENEW FACE & BODY radio frequency unit for aesthetic use is equipped with a control panel optimized for
its specific field of application and for the functions for which the unit is intended.
All operation parameters are controlled in real time by a sophisticated electronic microprocessor circuit and the
functions are clearly shown on a backlit LCD display and indicated by specific sound signals.
