There is now a procedure for patients that do not want to have surgery but desire facelift-like results.
A new concept of facial rejuvenation, adipose-remodeling - the art of strategically molding the fat in the face instead of surgically pulling the skin to tighten.

A patient can retain the fullness necessary to maintain youthfulness and at the same time have skin tightened in the neck and jowl for an optimal result. The perfect procedure for someone who has some lax skin but isn't ready for a surgical lift.
Dr. Bruce Katz, founder and director of JUVA Skin & Laser Center in New York said, "EmbraceRF is a new and exciting approach to rejuvenation of the face and neck. It is a groundbreaking combination therapy where an innovative minimally invasive RF technology works in tandem with a non-invasive microneedling RF device to tighten, remodel and rejuvenate the skin and subcutaneous fat layers."
Dr. Spero Theodorou, a plastic surgeon in New York City, described the procedure as, "lipo-remodeling of the face, using the patient's own fat to mold like playdo, and leave it in the face, unlike any other procedure."
Dr. Theodorou told AHB, "EmbraceRF is a combination of modalities in a new protocol that delivers a reproducible result."
The EmbraceRF is a combination of FaceTite and Morpheus8 by InMode Aesthetic Solutions designed to strategically remodel the face & neck.

"EmbraceRF has very little downtime, can be done in an office with local anesthesia, no sedation and usually a painless recovery," described by
Dr. Christopher Khorsandi, a plastic surgeon in Las Vegas. "Patients come in looking for a procedure with high impact, reasonable cost and low downtime, we can deliver that with EmbraceRF."
Dr. Khorsandi describes the procedure, "best bang for your buck, it does involve a little bit of invasiveness, three small incisions into the neck. The rest of it is microneedling RF. Patients are awake, don't feel any of it, completely numb, but will see results at the end of the procedure."
"The results & skin quality continue to improve for up to 12 months since the procedure stimulated the production of collagen, improving the thickness of the dermis and remodeling the aged tissues of the face," explained Dr. Khorsandi.

"Ideal for patients who have had a surgical procedure, showing some laxity but not ready or don't need another surgical procedure yet," says Dr. Sherrell Aston, New York City plastic surgeon. "This procedure gives a great improvement to the jawline and lower face with the added benefit of reduced wrinkles and creases."
“This procedure is safe, consistent, and works. I'm getting reproducible results in tightening, contouring and skin texture,” says Dr. Aston.
The procedure takes around an hour to an hour and a half to perform completely and according to Dr. Khorsandi, "patients go home that day, have minimal need for postoperative pain medications, in fact, we usually just recommend Tylenol. "
Dr. Khorsandi expressed, "it is exciting when I can look at a patient, say 'you are going to get a great result, you are going to love this'... I can almost guarantee it. Its a good feeling as a surgeon to tell a patient with good confidence that they are going to be happy."
Enhance RF is being launched at the Vegas Cosmetic Show on June 6, 2018. #vcs2018
