EmbraceRF Facial Remodeling

Facial Fillers and False Promises:

There is an abstraction with non-surgical facial rejuvenation and facial fillers. The notion at first site seems reasonable enough. However, there is no real long-term solution with injectable fillers alone. Only illusory.  A marketing construct, if you will.

Facial fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane, have been marketed by its manufacturers such as Allergan and Galderma, and idealized by social media, to offer a comprehensive platform of  facial rejuvenation without the need for surgical incisions. You have a fold, you fill it. You have a wrinkle,  you fill it. You have a hollow, you fill it.  Your lips are thin, you fill them.  Simply fill it in with fillers and presto, you look great! Problem solved – but not so fast.

Facial Aging

The Limitations of Facial Fillers

While injectable fillers have come a long way from the days of collagen, they still have their limitations. Example: Facial fillers, are without a doubt, the best choices for filling in fine lines and plumping lips. They do a great job of masking tear troughs ( as seen above), building cheekbones and jaw lines, and even filling in hollowed temples.

The limitations of facial fillers occur when they are used incorrectly, the most common examples being: Filling in nasolabial folds and jowls. Why?: As we get older, our faces fall and we slowly develop more facial volume in the lower face. Quite simply known as the Pyramid of Youth, the photo below demonstrates the effects aging has on the volume distribution of our face. This most commonly presents with heavier jowls, and deeper nasolabial folds.

Why consider EmbraceRF and why remodel facial volume?

The EmbraceRF Regional Facial Remodeling platform presents a paradigm shift in aesthetic medicine. The combination treatment of VASER-assisted, FaceTite, and Morpheus8 allow aesthetic clinicians to accurately and strategically reduce unwanted volume while tightening skin. The technology offers a truly customizable treatment based on the patient’s needs and goals.

Below are two short videos which demonstrate the how the Morpheus8 and VASER-assisted / FaceTite devices allow surgeons to remodel the face without the need for large incisions.

How to integrate EmbraceRF into the Facial Rejuvenation Armamentarium

EmbraceRF Regional Facial Remodeling offers a plethora of treatment options in the face ( and beyond ): The most common areas we address on the face include the eyelid region, where eyelid skin eyebags can be treated without the need for large incisions; the nasolabial folds and jowls, which can be reduced with a combination treatment of VASER-assisted and Morpheus8 under a local anesthetic, and the neck, where excessive neck skin can be tightened while also destroying unwanted fat with FaceTite and Morpheus8.

A common approach I like to offer patients who aren’t quite ready for a facelift is prepping the face and neck with FaceTite and Morpheus8. The treatments not only improve the facial contour, but the value to a patient who may need a facelift in the future is that the treatment helps to strengthen and rejuvenate the skin prior to a facelift by promoting collagen and elastin stimulation. This benefits a facelift patient because the EmbraceRF primed skin will be healthier and stronger, allowing for a more longstanding result once the facelift procedure is performed.

While EmbraceRF can be used to accurately target specific areas of aging, in my practice, we commonly incorporate the treatment with other facial rejuvenation procedures such as a ICELID, MINT Lift, and nano-fat transfer to the face, to provide a full complement of effect.
