    This video is so spot on. My friend who was working as a patient care coordinator for a plastic surgeon who opened up a clinic in Calabassas California and it also had a skin rejuvenation side that used a professional grade RF Machine. At night when everyone left, he would be the last person to lock up the place, well he decided to secretly start using the RF Device on himself because it would give him immediate results by firming and tightening his skin and then he would apply a bunch of serums, go home, get dolled up and go out to the clubs.
    He ended up moving back to Oregon abruptly and OH MY GOSH, when I saw his face I was MORTIFIED!!! He was NOT trained on how to use the device and literally dissolved not only that fat pads in his cheeks, but the fat in the mid facial section and even the tissues in his nose. I thought he was sick or on drugs and that's when he told me that he had damaged his face from the RF Device and thought that he had a close enough relationship with one of the aestheticians and asked her to help him fix it.
    She reported him to the Doctor and they pulled him into the office and explained that what he had done was not reversible and that only a fat transfer or fillers would replace all the volume he had destroyed and even those procedures would have to be repeated overtime. He was terminated immediately and it is so sad, because he is such a social butterfly and he ruined his good looks. I've never heard him cry so hard and it haunts me to this day.
    So to see this video and hear exactly what improper usage of this device can do, really put things into perspective for me. This is a valuable lesson for anyone reading this to be an honest employee and to NEVER use high grade medical devices on yourself, especially if you are not licensed nor trained!....

    At 61 all I do is botox around every 4 to 6 months. Heavy moisturizer and retinA at night and only a good sunscreen during the day. That's all I'm willing to do. It gets to be to much. Plus I try not to gain to much weight. So far I'm happy with my aging.

      It’s better to keep it simple as all these products can add inflammation and barrier damage, anyway. All you need is a way of washing your face once a day, moisturising/hydration and SPF as the basics. Everything else compliments that, but that’s the foundation.

      A. The laser if not a hoax SHOULD deliver better skin results, not worse & if fat was lost due to a laser- it would be Noticeable within less than a year. Normal aging is slower than that!

    I used the Newa device for 8 weeks and it was during a super busy time in my life so I really didn’t pay much attention to any results during that time. Just committed the time and really kind of ignored assessing an outcome until the end. I was genuinely shocked when I finally took the time to stop and take stock of what progress I was making. I have always had very full cheeks naturally, and my big full cheeks are…..flat. I panicked. I didn’t even know that was possible. I was seriously wondering if I was just imagining it but truly, it’s nearly impossible to deny. I haven’t touched the device since. Frankly, I’ve only considered picking it back up again to use under my chin. If it caused significant fat loss on my full cheeks, which was very upsetting, perhaps it can redeem itself by helping with my double chin! All in all, I advise very real caution. Mine is a cautionary tale.

    • @Tia-to2qc

    • @JNWG79
      @JNWG79 Год назад +50

      @@Tia-to2qc I can imagine that sounds odd. I’m probably the odd one…..I just don’t spend much time looking in the mirror. (ETA: I don’t use a mirror when I use the device.) One of my children has special needs and, as such, looking in the mirror is a bit of a luxury. I’m always on the go. The whole reason I decided to use this device was because, on those occasions I would take the time to stop and look, I wasn’t loving what I was seeing. So, no, I don’t think this happened suddenly. I imagine it happened gradually over the course of 8 weeks and I simply didn’t take the time to look. I know that probably sounds strange to a lot of people, but a lot of my life is a bit outside what is typical. That’s just how it goes I guess. LOL

    Skinny, thin skinned white women need to be especially careful with all devices. We especially can not afford any fat loss and I learned this the hard way. I got a really high powered IPL done at a reputable plastic surgeon’s office in Beverly Hills and I experienced an immediate flattening of my cheeks over the following days. I was so distraught about it that I had to get filler. They *say* that it is not possible for IPL to cause fat loss because it doesn’t go that deep but my face and filler bills say otherwise. I also have the before and after photos to prove it. I think a lot of these device are too risky for people that have extremely thin skin and minimal facial fat.

    My observation: ​I worked in surgery clinic with doctors, watching all patients and we also modelled to check effects of treatments ourselves. I unfortunately wanted RF machine called Morpheush and regreted. After one session, my cheeks flatten so bad. I wanted opposite effect as I am 30, tightening and plumping. If professional tells you something is wrong its not for their benefit, its for yours 🤗 My friend used it for belly after weight loss and as you can imagine, RF is wonderful for belly as we never lack fat there even after 25yo🙃

    I've commented this on other channels before, but never got a real answer. It's not just the fat loss issue that has raised a lot of questions, it's also the frequency of use. If we’re denaturing the collagen, is the goal not to allow for it to go through a full collagen cycle, which takes at least four weeks? Otherwise, wouldn't you just be breaking down the collagen over and over again before it was able to rebuild? If these devices aren't strong enough to break down collagen they wouldn't really work and if they are it wouldn't make sense to use them several times a week or even every day. None of the manufacturers seem to be able to provide any answers to this.

    I have used TriPollar's facial RF devices (STOP Eye and STOP X Rose) for half a year and if anything, my face feels fuller and more plump, with less hollow cheeks. If the devices could melt fat then that would actually be awesome since I could use it to melt my under eye fat pads (aka eye bags). No such luck so far, just tighter and brighter under eye skin which does reduce the appearance of bags in a different way :)

      It's funny that when you frame the same issue as desirable, people think it's less likely. I think our lizard brains are always scanning for threats, making negative scenarios seem more likely than they are. People tend to be doubtful that fat melting devices or procedures work for the body where loss of fat is considered positive, but are very cautious of many facial procedures and treatments in case they might cause fat loss (tret, red light therapy, RF). If we could melt fat by applying tretinoin then it would be very easy to be skinny!

    s it true that the collagen tightening produced from HIFU and RF is 'disorganised collagen' - effectively scar tissue? It was claimed by a surgeon that the denatured collagen doesn't form regular, orderly collagen and instead meshes together in this disorganised manner. It was also claimed that this scar tissue then makes it difficult for any future surgeries. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.

    I have followed a few pages that use different types of home devices. RF, Sonic Ultrasound, Light therapy, micro current, etc. Honestly, I've seen some, where their faces have aged drastically in short periods of time. It seems there is overuse and incorrect use. Once a week at a minimum~ to twice a month. Facial massage "light massage" using hands or guasha tool is an excellent choice. Alternating between different types of devices on a weekly basis, with only a five minute MAX time frame~ when utilizing at home devices. Be aware~ even over use of at home products can change the integrity of your skin and fat layers, as well. Facial yoga and guasha massage reposition fat and assist in lymphatic drainage. Over washing the skin, too and using harsh products can also cause inflammation and destroy the protective layer of the skin, which assist in retaining moisture. I have been involved in the Beauty/Health industry for many years. I plan on launching a page to assist women in natural care of hair, skin and health where practical advice positive advice can be given. Most women, wait until there skin is drastically aging or damaged. Though, good news.. Skin can be renewed without drastic measures and spending thousands of dollars. My IG Enchantedrosemagick.

    These "procedures" are carried out by estheticians in my state. To put it in perspective, that is 5-8 months of training to get an esthetician license plus a few day’s training on each machine - training sponsored by the manufacturer. I’ve never once encountered a dermatologist in these spa settings or offices. They are a means of passive income for dermatologists, - the risk is passed to the patient.

    Like someone else already said, I have had Endymed Microneedling with RF. I have always been quite skinny with a slim face but after my 1st pregnancy, about 1 year after giving birth when I paid attention to my self in the mirror I was shocked with how drawn and skinny my face had become. My under eye area especially was hollow, it looked a bit like a completely different person's. I was 31 at the time. My pregnancy weight dropped very quickly due to newborn year but also going through other stresses at the time and perhaps that was the cause for my face to look that way. I was forced to go for a little bit of under eye filler. Then add 3 more years and second pregnancy/a year postpartum left my skin looking droopy at only 34 years old. The only thing that hasn't changed was my cheek structure - they were always prominent but not through fat but bone structure, however prominent bone structure in the cheek area and the ultra skinnines of my face, started to look unwell, sickly. All I had was sticky out cheek bones. What shocked me then was the visible sagginess of the skin around my jaw (middle jaw part and side of the lips).
    I went for a Hifu session and Endymed last year and after each skin tightening my face was getting its actual shape and tightness back. It literally looked pulled back. So all in all, in my case it was definitely worth it. I think it's always good to assess individually but also make sure you find a reputable place with responsible specialists and excellent devices. And each one of us is entirely different. The changes I started noticing hit me very fast and unexpectedly and I wasn't ready for them so even if I did have any additional fat loss caused, it wouldn't have been noticeable as my face was already sulken and looked unhealthily skinny and drawn. Thank you for the review though its always so eye opening.

They also put a little drop off filler in the pits for free so I guess that's something lol. The RF microneedling didn't do much, but to be fair I only did the one session then never went back. But the Facetite was back in August, so the pitted scars have gradually gotten a little better with time and retinal.
      I didn't mean to scare you off Facetite if you really want it, I think I've just had bad luck with RF in general. I searched online to see if anyone else got burn scars like me from Facetite and could find maybe 1 person at most but they weren't pitted. So I think maybe I'm an outlier.

    I just gave my NEWA RF to my Mom and ordered 2 fresh tubes of the gel for her. I have lupus and NEWA said I shouldn’t use it but of course I had to try. So yeah, they were right 😂 . My Mom is 82 and still very beautiful and we are just looking for something to freshen up her laxity and lines. We will probably do it on the low setting for her. Glad to hear it won’t melt her facial fat. Thank you so much for your deep dive on this 🥰

    So True ... Unfortunely, I was told so many times that you can't have facial fat loss from RF? although i have question the RN nurse or technicians at the Medi spa's..that's the main problems.. This should be told to anyone who is going for any RF procedures..as you don't want to ruin your face. I haven't really do much procedures on my face..as I was very hesitate of these RF treatments. I tried Ultheraphy and since i have a chubby face..it didn't seem to much a a different with a little fat loss..but researching everything.. i rather go for cosmetic surgery as it seem more reliable ..although its expensive..i rather save my money.. and i had one procedure done and I was very happy with the results..you only have one face..you have to be so careful..and the way companies promote so many procedures..it sounds like miracle cure for aging.. but its a bust!!!!!

    I use RF on my double chin and pre-jowls only 1 every 4-6 weeks and yes, I have lost fat slowly, on the jowls and chin. I only use it in those areas in a higher setting. Never on the upper face.
    I use the Tripolar a couple times a month for tightening on my cheeks, double chin & neck and I haven't seen any loss with the Tripolar
    At the end it's usually User Error rather than the device

    Hi Dr. Dray can red light/ near infrared light therapy do the same? Because I'm pretty sure that my face feels and looks flatter after consistent use of my device . I stopped for a year after realizing what was happening. Do I restart but maybe only 1 x a week instead of 5 x a week?

    • @Mushwomb.mp3
      @Mushwomb.mp3 Год назад

      Infrared is more likely than red cause it penetrates deeper. But overall the studies for fat loss are for ppl using it immediately before exercise. So unlikely

      @@selectiveoutrage6617 I love Angie’s channel! Yes, I’ve heard Morpheus need’s multiple treatments, so I don’t understand the popularity. I have Profound scheduled next month which (seems) more intense and a single treatment needed. I was impressed at the before/after photos of the nurse in my surgeon’s office. Still, it’s confusing with all these clinical RF machines popping up making outrageous claims, when most have unique mechanisms.

    I have a facial device that has RF, heat, and red light therapy. I used it very consistently for about 2 months and it was at that point I took an honest look at my face and I thought I looked worse. Now, I am in my early 70's so I wasn't expecting miracles, but I felt I looked gaunt and then I heard about the fat loss. It is good to know that these at home devices don't cause fat loss, but I seriously have to wonder. I haven't gone back to it, and it has probably been a year. Thinking I might go back to it though after watching this just for the drape under my chin and hope it does zap the fat. One plus is that it causes mild swelling of the face and for several hours after using my face is much plumper but only for about 8 hours. Good for special occasions.
