Holistic Approach for Noninvasive Facial Rejuvenation by Simultaneous Use of High Intensity Focused Electrical Stimulation and Synchronized Radiofrequency: A Review of Treatment Effects Underlined by Understanding of Facial Anatomy

Suneel Chilukuri. Facial Plast Surg Clin North Am. 2023 Nov.

Abstract

Understanding facial anatomy is a key aspect for successful treatment of age-related changes manifested to facial tissues. Namely, changes to the facial muscles and their connective tissue framework result in an increased soft tissue laxity, leading to wrinkling, sagging, and altered texture. This review elaborates on the use of novel high intensity focused electrical stimulation (HIFES) and Synchronized RF technology to improve facial muscle tone and skin structure, focusing on the technology background and clinical aspects.
