Tratamiento Flacidez Corporal - Masderm CosméticaHow does radiofrequency body work at home?
To get a little technical, radiofrequency is a type of high-frequency current that generates heat by conversion, i.e. it converts electromagnetic energy into thermal energy. In other words, the device generates heat through electricity in a completely painless way.
This heat ranges from 30 Khz to 300 Mhz, so it does not cause any damage to the skin and is completely safe. Moreover, thanks to this power, it can reach and heat the deep layers of the skin while keeping the surface layer cool and protected
What does radiofrequency body at home work for?
When we notice that our skin becomes flaccid, it means that our collagen and elastin production has decreased. This happens physiologically, i.e. it is completely normal, because with age the body begins to reduce the production of cells and substances. The loss of collagen is particularly pronounced after the age of 30 and even more so after the menopause.
Collagen is essential for the body to function properly, and its function is to provide resistance and structural integrity to the different tissues. In other words, it is responsible for generating firmness.
Radiofrequency body can help the generation of new collagen, called neocollagenesis, which allows a greater firmness of the skin due to the reorganisation of collagen and elastin fibres.
What is flaccidity and how does radiofrequency body help us to reduce it?
To find out how we should treat flaccidity with radiofrequency body, we first need to know a little about how our skin is composed.
The first layer is the epidermis, which is the most superficial layer of the skin and acts as a protective barrier against external factors such as pollutants found in the environment, infections caused by microorganisms or even chafing from clothing. This means that we need to keep our barrier in good condition, and to do this we need to moisturise it properly to improve both its appearance and its protective function.
Beneath the epidermis is the dermis, which is the thickest layer of skin. It is a strong, malleable tissue with visco-elastic properties composed of fibrous proteins, i.e. the stars of the moment, collagen and elastin. So this is where we want to focus our attention.
The (other) benefits of radiofrequency body
As mentioned above, radiofrequency treatment stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which improves the appearance of the skin. However, this treatment has other benefits, such as follows:
1. Reduces fatty tissue
Radiofrequency causes heating of the innermost layers of the skin, thereby separating the skin cells from the adipose tissue, which will be eliminated through the lymphatic system. The result is a reduction of fatty tissue in the area.
2. Activates circulation
Related to the above, the heat generated by radiofrequency produces vasodilation, which improves blood circulation. In this way, the cells receive better all the nutrients they need to work properly.
3. Eliminates toxins
By improving blood circulation, thanks to vasodilation, it also promotes the work of the lymphatic system, which is responsible for transporting and eliminating toxins from the body.

How often can radiofrequency body be used at home?
The radiofrequency body device can be used a maximum of 3 days per week and should always be used every other day so that the skin can rest and you can start to see the results correctly.
It should be used for a maximum of 10 minutes on one area and a total of 30 minutes per day, i.e. three different areas per day, we have given some examples below to make it easier to understand!
The results of radiofrequency body depend on the skin type. On average, the improvement in firmness starts to be noticeable after 4 weeks, provided that the correct and constant application is followed.
We recommend a break of 2-3 weeks every 3 months, i.e. using the device every other day for a total of 9 months per year.
The best time to apply the radiofrequency body treatment is at night, as we have more time to take a short break and take care of ourselves. In this way we will also avoid sun exposure as it is recommended, especially in summer when the sun is the strongest. So it is important to always use sunscreen, which will not only help to protect our skin, but also to prevent spots and fine lines caused by sun damage.
Furthermore, our RF Body Device is exclusively designed for body areas such as arms (triceps), abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs and calves.
Under no circumstances should it be used on areas such as the face, neck and décolleté. To treat these areas, we must use the RF Facial Device.
In which areas of the body can radiofrequency be applied?
Radiofrequency treatment is selective, that is, it can be applied to specific areas of the body, especially those that tend to suffer more flaccidity and accumulate more layers of fat. Thus, the most common areas where this treatment is applied are the following:
- Abdomen: to achieve a flatter stomach, in addition to reducing the stretch marks that appear after childbirth and due to sudden changes in weight.
- Buttocks: to give them firmness and make them regain their shape.
- Arms: to reduce the flaccidity of the inner arm, common in older people.
- Legs: to reduce cellulite and flaccidity, especially in the thighs.
- Chest: to firm the chest by stimulating circulation and the production of elastin and collagen.
- Face: radiofrequency face treatment increases radiance, reduces wrinkles and smoothes facial skin.

How should radiofrequency be used on the body?
In order to use the radiofrequency body device we must first wash our skin and moisturise it very well with cream,specifically with our RF Body Firming firming cream, which is conductive and formulated with the necessary active ingredients to try to prevent skin ageing and boost its elasticity thanks to bladderwrack, centella asiatica and horsetail.
This means that RF Body Firming has the same objective as radiofrequency body. Therefore, despite having much slower effects, we could achieve a firmness very similar to that combined with the device.
What we recommend is to use the RF Body Firming cream every day and our RF Body Device every other day. This way you will achieve the desired results much faster than using the cream alone.
In addition, it can be perfectly combined with the RF Body Slim anti-cellulite cream as it is a conductive cream that helps to enhance the effects of radiofrequency. So it can be perfectly combined.
Depending on the needs we want to treat, we will use the RF Body Firming to help firm our skin or the RF Body Slim to combat cellulite.
As we have said before, the radiofrequency body treatment is a maximum of 10 minutes per area, but we can apply it for a maximum of 30 minutes a day, which means that we can combine different areas until we reach a total of 30 minutes on the body.
Here are some examples:
1. If you are concerned about flaccidity in arms, buttocks or abdomen we can use the device combining different areas:
RF Body Firming use the device for 5 minutes on the right arm: to treat flaccidity of the skin.
- RF Body Firming use the device for 5 minutes on the left arm: to treat flaccidity of the skin.
- RF Body Slim use the device for 5 min on the right buttock: to treat cellulite.
- RF Body Slim use the device for 5 min on the left buttock: to treat cellulite.
- RF Body Firming use the device for 10 min abdomen: to treat flaccidity.
This pattern is indicated to treat different areas with different creams, but in no area have we spent more than 10 minutes and in addition, the total time of radiofrequency has been 30 minutes.
This is in case you want to reach the maximum but it is not necessary to combine so many areas or to spend all 30 minutes.
2. If you are concerned about flaccidity in the abdominal and lumbar area:
RF Body Firming use the device for 10 minutes on the abdomen.
RF Body Firming use the device for 10 minutes on the back.
Remember that the areas that can be treated with our RF Body Device are only: arms (triceps), abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs and calves.
How long does it take for body radiofrequency to work?
This aesthetic medicine treatment begins to show the first effects from the second session, although it takes between two and five months to observe the final result, that is, between four and eight sessions.
How long do the effects of radiofrequency body last?
The changes made to the skin are permanent, as body radiofrequency improves the natural production of collagen and elastin.
Even so, we must bear in mind that with age the body will need a little help to maintain this production. The recommended pattern is the one we have indicated above. You can rest every 3 months coinciding with the holiday season (Christmas, Easter and August).
And do the effects have a rebound?
The effects of body radiofrequency have no rebound because fat cells are not modified or eliminated. The electrical impulses only affect the deep layers of the skin, without altering the adipose tissue. However, even if the results do not have a rebound, reinforcement sessions are recommended.
Who can use radiofrequency on the body?
Ideally, it is best to start from the age of 30, as this is when the body really needs extra help. In the case of minors, radiofrequency on the body should only be applied on skin with acne and in function of acne.
In addition, it can be used on any skin type regardless of phototype.
However, there are certain contraindications: pregnancy and breastfeeding, heart disease, coagulation disorders, neuromuscular diseases, recent collagen implants, metal prostheses, pacemakers or morbid obesity.
The important thing is to use a body radiofrequency device with a guarantee and apply the treatment correctly following the indicated instructions.
If in your case you have any doubts about whether it is advisable for you to use the radiofrequency device, you can contact us by email at hello@masderm.com and we will be happy to help you.
Can we use the creams alone without the radiofrequency device?
Of course, in fact, as we have mentioned before, what we recommend is to use the creams on a daily basis, without the device.
The effects take a little longer to appear as the device gives you that extra help but the daily use of the creams is totally optimal to keep our skin healthy and help to regain that firmness or eliminate cellulite from problem areas.
We can really use whichever cream we are most interested in, but at Masderm we recommend using RF Body Firming during the day, for example after showering, as it has a lighter texture and takes less time to absorb. RF Body Slim, on the other hand, is best applied at night as it is a little denser, even though it is totally feasible to use it in the morning.
Which cream is best for body radiofrequency?
Generic gels or creams are not recommended for this rejuvenating treatment, as they do not help to evenly distribute the electrical micropulses of the radiofrequency device. Therefore, the recommended products are specific conductive creams.
