Radiofrequency, as a safe, effective and tolerable treatment option, come into prominence of aesthetic applications in the last period. Radiofrequency devices produce focal thermal damage to the dermis by electric current-generated heat. This focused energy preserves the epidermis and is associated with fewer complications and side effects and quicker recovery time. Contrary to lasers, the effect is independent of chromophores, so they can be used safely in all skin types. Although the results have overall been favorable, many of the studies are nonrandomized, noncomparative trials based on subjective evaluation. The ideal treatment parameters, the energy levels and the number of passes for optimal results have not been determined yet. Radiofrequency applications in face and neck aesthetics are reviewed with the current literature in this article. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
