Treatment of sun-damaged skin and wrinkles is attracting increasing interest as the possible approaches expand. Recently mono- und bipolar radiofrequency devices have been introduced as new treatment options for skin rejuvenation. Initial studies have demonstrated changes in collagen content of the skin as the molecular basis of skin texture improvement. However, there are many possible risks and side effects. We describe a patient referred to us with severe facial scarring as a result of a bipolar radiofrequency treatment performed by non-medical personnel. Due to the risk of permanent tissue damage, the indications for radiofrequency interventions should be made carefully. Potential contraindications should be considered and written informed consent about all possible side effects and risk factors should be obtained. According to current knowledge, the experience of the physician using radiofrequency devices is most important in determining the outcome of this procedure. Therefore the use of radiofrequency therapy requires extensive training.
随着可能的治疗方法不断增加,日光损伤皮肤和皱纹的治疗正吸引着越来越多的关注。最近,单极和双极射频设备已作为皮肤年轻化的新治疗选择被引入。初步研究表明,皮肤胶原蛋白含量的变化是改善皮肤质地的分子基础。然而,存在许多潜在风险和副作用。我们描述了一名因非医务人员进行双极射频治疗而导致严重面部瘢痕的患者前来就诊。由于存在永久性组织损伤的风险,射频干预的适应症应谨慎确定。应考虑潜在的禁忌症,并获得关于所有可能副作用和风险因素的书面知情同意书。根据目前的知识,使用射频设备的医生的经验在决定该手术的结果方面最为重要。因此,射频治疗的使用需要广泛的培训。
