Patients ask us: Can sagging skin be eliminated? To completely eliminate the flaccidity when it is moderate or severe with non-invasive treatments is not possible, but medical facial aesthetic treatments can improve it remarkably and in addition the results obtained can be maintained. Currently, to have a high patients’ satisfaction with these treatments, it is recommended to start treating the first signs of flaccidity as soon as possible.

As a novelty, we have a fractional radiofrequency medical device to firm sagging skin of face and neck. It is a new line of safe and effective technology based on radiofrequency applied with a matrix. The medical device is called E-matrix (by Syneron Candela).

How does E-matrix subablative radiofrequency technology work to firm sagging skin of face and neck?

Radiofrequency energy is applied precisely on the skin with signs of flaccidity with a hand piece that has a matrix. By emitting the radiofrequency through this matrix, the energy penetrates the flaccid skin creating some treatment columns and leaving a healthy skin around the columns that is not affected. Thus, we have an area that we treat and another that does not, that is in charge of accelerating the process of creating new collagen of better quality while contracting the skin.

Progressively, after these treatment sessions to reaffirm the face and neck, the production of new collagen and healthy skin cells is activated. The texture of the skin becomes softer and firmer.
