To use the device for RF lifting 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 subcutaneous layer, as a result of which all layers of the epidermis are heated. These manipulations lead to an increase in the density of collagen fibers, due to which the skin is tightened and wrinkles are smoothed out.
The procedure itself is considered quite innovative and has been adopted by cosmetologists not so long ago. Due to its effectiveness, low trauma, lack of a preparatory stage and serious rehabilitation, it became acceptable for independent conduct.
How to choose a device for home lifting?
To do RF lifting 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.
It is enough to purchase a portable device that:
- has the necessary power to warm up 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 optimal modes for different zones;
- compiled by a trusted manufacturer;
- is safe for health;
- has a guaranteed service.
Apparatus for home use, used for lifting, can cause unpleasant sensations to the owners of sensitive skin due to the impossibility of regulating the depth of heating. Typically, this problem is solved with a cooling gel.
The most popular devices - the choice of cosmetologists
Fans of RF lifting technology, who have appreciated the effectiveness of the technique, can easily continue the procedures to improve their appearance without leaving home. The main thing is to understand the great variety of devices that are offered for lifting manipulations by manufacturers working for the beauty industry.
Today, there are monopolar, bipolar and multipolar models on sale, which do not differ much in efficiency from each other, with the exception of unipolar ones - they are able to warm the deeper layers of the dermis, giving a stronger result. However, in this force there is also a danger of uncontrolled overheating of untreated areas, and as a consequence - provoking side reactions of the body to radio frequency impulses.
The high polarity allows a more localized action to be carried out strictly on certain areas, guaranteeing safety for the body. But a multi-polar RF lifting device at home is a real luxury, since the prices for such devices are simply exorbitant.
There are models of mobile devices that are popular both among specialists and those who have decided to arrange a beauty salon at home.
