Resultados clave

  • Published in the Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy (2009).
  • TriPollar radiofrequency in a professional device.
  • +49% dermis thickness after 7 sessions.
  • Thicker collagen fibers under the microscope.
  • Reduction in fat cell size.
  • Average satisfaction of 3.75 out of 5.

Resumen

Study published in the Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy (Kaplan H, Gat A. J Cosmet Laser Ther 2009;11:78-84) evaluating TriPollar radiofrequency to stimulate collagen and reduce localized fat. It was conducted using a professional in-office device.

12 people received weekly sessions on the face, neck, arms, and abdomen. One of them was treated on half of the abdomen before an abdominoplasty, which allowed the treated and untreated skin to be compared under a microscope.

Methodology

  • Participants: 12 healthy individuals treated in different areas of the face and body.
  • Protocol: weekly TriPollar radiofrequency sessions until 40-42 °C was reached on the skin surface.
  • Histological analysis: one participant received 7 sessions on one side of the abdomen before her abdominoplasty. Biopsies were taken from the treated and untreated sides.
  • Variables: photographs, measurements, satisfaction on a 5-point scale, and microscopic analysis of the dermis and fat.

Results

  • Dermis thickness was 49% greater on the treated side: 5.5 mm compared to 3.7 mm.
  • Thickening of collagen fibers and more fibroblasts in the treated dermis.
  • Reduction in the size of fat cells in the treated area.
  • Average satisfaction of 3.75 out of 5.
  • Only temporary redness was recorded.

Relationship with TriPollar POSE Vx

The study was conducted with a professional device, but it explains how the TriPollar multi-radiofrequency used by TriPollar POSE Vx works: it stimulates collagen in the dermis and fat metabolism. The results of this study correspond to the cabin device.

Conclusiones

The study demonstrates through histological analysis that TriPollar radiofrequency increases dermal thickness, thickens collagen fibers, and reduces the size of fat cells, which explains the improvement in firmness and contour.

TriPollar POSE Vx complements the usual cosmetic routine and cosmetic and medical aesthetic treatments.
