Abstract
Radiofrequency energy has a wide range of medical applications, including noninvasive treatment of wrinkles and body contouring. This technology works by differential heating of skin and soft tissue layers causing dermal remodeling or adipolysis, ultimately leading to observable effects. This article reviews the physics of radiofrequency as applied clinically.Keywords: Aesthetic; Collagen remodeling; Facial rejuvenation; Nonsurgical; Radiofrequency; Skin tightening
