Heating of Dermis and Hypodermis
Light Energy (see Figure 7):
• Broad spectrum IR light at wavelengths of 700-2000 nm.
• Maximum electrical power of the IR light is 35 Watts (35 J/sec) for both smooth and
contour applicators.
• Depth of heating from light reaches the deep dermis. RF Energy (see Figure 7):
• Bi-polar conductive RF energy is emitted from the RF electrodes which are embedded
in the rollers at a frequency of ~1 MHz.
• Maximum RF energy applied to the patient's skin is 60 Watts for the
smooth applicator and 23 Watts for the contour applicator.
• The heat generated by the RF energy reaches the depth of the hypodermis.
Mechanical Effects on the Skin
Mechanical Rollers (see Figure 9):
• Rollers knead the skin inward so that the IR and RF energies can penetrate deeper in
the skin.
• Rolling the skin upward facilitates a better suction effect from the vacuum.
• The repeated kneading of the skin between the rollers improves lymphatic drainage,
with overall improvement of the dimpled appearance of cellulite.
Vacuum/Negative Pressure (see Figure 9):
• When all edges of the applicator are in full contact with the skin, a seal is made,
allowing the vacuum pump to apply gentle suction.
• Negative pressure dilates the blood vessels, increasing the perfusion in the local area.
• Vacuum levels are:
-
Smooth applicator – up to 380 mbar of negative pressure
- C
ontour applicator – up to 440 mbar of negative pressure
