Microwave 245ghz skin tightening evidence for Body skin laxity

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: Postpartum abdominal laxity is a growing concern for women. Noninvasive options like microwave technology and fractional carbon dioxide (CO₂) laser show promise, but their combined efficacy and safety require further investigation. AIM: To compare the efficacy and safety of microwaves versus combined microwaves and fractional CO₂ laser in the treatment of postpartum abdominal laxity...

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: Facial aging is characterized by soft tissue atrophy, subcutaneous fat redistribution, and dermal laxity, most pronounced in the lower face and submental region. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is the benchmark noninvasive lifting modality, whereas microwave energy-based devices (MEBDs) have recently emerged, targeting adipose tissue and dermis. Although MEBD has been validated in body...

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: A growing demand for aesthetic treatments for localized abdominal unwanted fat has developed as a healthy lifestyle is not always able to improve abdomen appearance. AIMS: The purpose of this retrospective nonrandomized observational study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new device delivering microwaves energy for unwanted fat reduction, using three-dimensional (3D) imaging analysis....

Observational Study, Journal Article

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: The body contour market has grown steadily over the last years, due to the persistent demand for non-invasive treatments for localized fat adiposities, cellulite, and skin laxity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The purpose of this observational study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new device delivering microwaves (MWs) energy for unwanted fat and cellulite reduction after a full cycle of treatments...

Abstract summary (English) Microwave body tightening and contouring is a common and efficient cosmetic medical procedure. The current study presents preliminary data about microwave treatment for body contouring where an innovative and unexpected benefit on frostbites was shown. This is a case series on two patients with frostbite treated with microwave therapy.

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUNDS AND AIMS: Submental skin laxity (SSL), manifesting as sagging skin and double chin, can significantly affect patients' self-perception and social interactions. While surgical treatments exist, non-invasive methods are increasingly sought for their minimal recovery time. This study assesses the safety and effectiveness of a novel microwave-based device for treating SSL, aiming to provide long-term...

Journal Article

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: Cervicomental contour represents an important aesthetic problem. AIMS: This research evaluates the safety and the efficacy of a new non-invasive system delivering microwave energy for the treatment of submental skin laxity and fat. METHODS: Forty-eight subjects underwent submental treatment with the device at hand at Poliambulatorio San Michele, Reggio Emilia, Italy.

Journal Article

Abstract summary (English) BACKGROUND: Postpartum abdominal changes represent a major esthetic concern affecting women. As the abdomen stretches during pregnancy and some of the muscles lose tone, there is an increased skin laxity and a loss of abdominal elasticity. As a result, the abdomen becomes saggy.

Journal Article

Abstract summary (English) Efforts to employ various types of plasma in the field of skin care have increased consistently because it can regulate many biochemical reactions that are normally unaffected by light-based therapy. One method for skin rejuvenation adopted a high-temperature plasma generator to remove skin epithelial cells. In this case, the catalyzing effects of the plasma were rarely used due to the high temperature.
