Radio frequency skin tone (RF) is an aesthetic technique that uses RF energy to heat the tissues and stimulates subdermal collagen production to reduce the appearance of fine lines and loose skin. This technique induces tissue remodeling and the production of new collagen and elastin. This process provides an alternative to facelift and other facelift surgery.
Some companies produce RF devices, including Thermage by Solta Medical, Venus Freeze by Venus Concept, VelaShape by Syneron, Exilis by BTL, and 3DEEP by Endymed. Alternative techniques include Laser Replay and some Ultrasound alternatives. Typically, treatment requires a series of 8-12 treatment sessions lasting 30-45 minutes. The device has different penetration depths depending on the number of electrodes (monopolar, bipolar, or unipolar).

Side effects
Due to high-energy radio frequency radiation, some patients have reported pain requiring sedation during the procedure. This process also requires extreme care in its application for improper application can cause dents on the skin surface due to uneven healing response on the skin. Many effects including fatty necrosis and atrophy scarring have also been reported, although some new techniques have overcome these obstacles. With vacuum applications at the point of application, burning and crusting are reportedly reduced.
