摘要简介:皮肤松弛、皱纹和脂肪团是与衰老过程相关的常见美学问题。这些症状是由于真皮结缔组织变弱和变薄以及皮下脂肪细胞增大造成的。本研究的目的是评估 TriPollar 射频技术在减少脂肪和胶原蛋白再生方面的安全性和有效性。方法:12 名健康患者每周使用 TriPollar 技术对不同身体部位进行治疗。对治疗区域进行拍照和测量,并监测患者满意度。一名腹部患者在预定的腹部成形术之前同意接受一系列 TriPollar 治疗。对腹部成形术过程中采集的皮肤样本进行了受控组织病理学分析。结果:组织病理学检查显示治疗和未治疗的腹部皮肤区域之间存在显着差异。 TriPollar 治疗后,真皮厚度增加了 49%,胶原纤维局部增厚,脂肪细胞局部收缩。患者的平均满意度表明对所取得的临床结果非常满意。结论:TriPollar 是一种安全有效的非侵入性紧肤塑身技术。组织学结果表明 TriPollar 治疗后真皮层和脂肪层发生变化,导致胶原蛋白再生增加并刺激脂肪代谢。
Abstract Introduction: Skin laxity, wrinkles and cellulite are common aesthetic problems associated with the aging process. These symptoms are due to the weakening and thinning of dermal connective tissue and the enlargement of hypodermal fat cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the TriPollar RF technology in reducing fat and collagen regeneration. Methods: Twelve healthy patients underwent weekly treatments on different body sites using the TriPollar technology. Treatment areas were photographed and measured and patient satisfaction was monitored. One abdominal patient consented to a series of TriPollar treatments prior to her scheduled abdominoplasty. A controlled histopathology analysis was performed on skin samples taken during the abdominoplasty procedure. Results: Histopatho-logical examination revealed marked differences between treated and non-treated abdominal skin areas. An increase of 49% in dermal thickness, focal thickening of collagen fibers and focal shrinkage of fat cells was shown following TriPollar treatments. Average patient satisfaction indicated clear satisfaction with the clinical results achieved. Conclusion: The TriPollar is a safe and effective non-invasive technology leading to skin tightening and body shaping. Histology results indicate changes at the dermal and fat layers following TriPollar treatments resulting in increased collagen regeneration and stimulated fat metabolism.
