Facial Rejuvenation and Contouring with Radiofrequency-Assisted Procedures in Asians

Radiofrequency (RF)-assisted liposuction treatment is a minimally invasive skin-tightening technique for the patient population with skin laxity. The authors recommend facial liposuction combined with the RF procedure for the treatment of skin laxity. Minimal-invasive liposuction creates working channels for RF treatment and sufficiently exposes the subdermal fibrous septal network tissue so that the RF energy can directly act on the collagen of the fibrous septal network for thermal shrinkage, leading to better surgical results. In this article, the authors describe their preferred technique and experience for face rejuvenation and contouring.
