Nurse prescriber Amanda Azzopardi outlines how radiofrequency can lift, tighten and firm the stomach
Radiofrequency (RF) is an advanced technology based on converting the energy of an electromagnetic wave into heat.1 This interacts with the tissues to generate thermal change.1 RF is an increasingly popular option for treating stomach fat due to its non-invasive nature and ability to target all three layers of the skin, thus targeting the adipose tissue for more sustained results.2
This article will delve into how RF treatments are used to treat stomach fat, the science behind it, choosing the appropriate patient and integrating it within your business model.
How RF tackles stomach fat
RF generates heat in different tissues via transferring energy through three basic components from an electromagnetic field.4 This includes orientation of electric dipoles that exist in the atoms and molecules in the tissue; polarisation of atoms and molecules to produce dipole moments; and displacement of…
