To use the RF lifting device at home, as an alternative to plastic surgery or salon procedures, it is necessary 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 the method lies in the effect of radio frequencies on the skin and the subcutaneous layer, as a result of which all the layers of the epidermis are heated. These manipulations lead to an increase in the density of collagen fibers, whereby the skin is tightened and wrinkles are smoothed.
The procedure itself is considered quite innovative and has been adopted by cosmetologists not long ago. Due to its effectiveness, under trauma, lack of preparatory stage and serious rehabilitation, it became acceptable for independent behavior.
How to choose a device to lift the home?
To perform RF surveys at home, it is not necessary to use a super powerful system with a large number of functions and operating modes that are intended for professional beauty salons.
Simply purchase a portable device that:
- has the necessary power to warm the treated areas (for the neck and décolleté, a little power is enough, for the abdomen, thighs, buttocks to break the cellulite orange peel - stronger);
- smoothly adjusts the optimal modes for different zones;
- compiled by a trusted manufacturer;
- is safe for health;
- has a guaranteed service.
Device for domestic use, used for lifting, can cause unpleasant sensations for owners of sensitive skin due to the impossibility of regulating the depth of heating. Normally, this problem is solved with a cooling gel.
The Most Popular Devices - Cosmetologists' Choice
Fans of RF lifting technology, who have appreciated the effectiveness of the technique, can easily continue procedures to improve their appearance without leaving home. The main thing is to understand the wide variety of devices offered by manufacturers working for the beauty industry for lifting manipulations.
Today, there are monopolar, bipolar and multipolar models for sale, which do not differ much from each other in efficiency, except for the unipolar ones, they are capable of heating the deeper layers of the dermis, giving a stronger result. However, in this force there is also the danger of uncontrolled overheating of untreated areas and, as a result, causing secondary reactions of the body to radio frequency impulses.
The high polarity allows a more strictly localized action in certain areas, guaranteeing the safety of the body. But a multi-pole RF lifting device at home is a real luxury, as the prices for these devices are simply outrageous.
There are models of mobile devices that are popular both among specialists and those who have decided to organize a beauty salon at home.
