The development of nonablative monopolar capacitive radiofrequency technology (ThermaCool System, Thermage, Inc., Hayward, California) has contributed to the noninvasive trend in facial skin rejuvenation. In contrast to traditional ablative resurfacing techniques, the ThermaCool System protects the skin surface from injury while selectively heating the underlying dermis. Preservation of epidermal integrity minimizes recovery and the risk of complications. Published clinical evidence documents the efficacy of monopolar capacitive radiofrequency skin tightening and supports its use for mild to moderate facial skin laxity and rhytides. Currently, monopolar capacitive radiofrequency represents the gold standard of treatments designed to tighten skin in a noninvasive fashion.
非消融性单极电容射频技术（ThermaCool系统，Thermage公司，加利福尼亚州海沃德市）的发展推动了面部皮肤年轻化的无创化趋势。与传统的消融性换肤技术不同，ThermaCool系统在选择性加热深层真皮的同时保护皮肤表面免受损伤。表皮完整性的保留使恢复过程和并发症风险降至最低。已发表的临床证据证明了单极电容射频皮肤紧致的有效性，并支持其用于治疗轻至中度面部皮肤松弛和皱纹。目前，单极电容射频代表了以无创方式紧致皮肤的治疗金标准。
