Most radiofrequency devices work at a single frequency level, which limits how deeply they can penetrate your skin. Your skin needs targeted energy at different depths to address the various layers where aging occurs.
At Saluja Cosmetic and Laser Center in Huntersville, North Carolina, Raminder Saluja, MD, uses Density™ radiofrequency technology that delivers two different frequencies to separate tissue layers in one treatment.
When you understand how skin loses firmness at various depths, you see why this multi-layered approach gives you better tightening results.
Density works in two ways. The monopolar frequency penetrates down to your fat layer and fascia, while the bipolar frequency works on your upper skin layers. This means one treatment can lead to:
You see immediate tightening that keeps improving for months as new collagen forms throughout these layers.
Many devices keep energy levels low to stay comfortable, but that limits what they can accomplish. Density delivers up to 400 watts while keeping you safe through precise cooling.
Higher energy creates stronger thermal changes in your tissues. This means more collagen stimulation and better tightening results. The device monitors your skin’s resistance and adjusts energy automatically to maintain consistent heating.
Each person’s skin conducts electricity differently. Even your own skin changes resistance as it heats up during treatment. Standard devices can’t adjust for this, creating uneven heating and inconsistent results.
Density measures your skin’s electrical resistance continuously and corrects the energy output in real-time. This means:
The challenge with radiofrequency is heating target tissues without damaging your surface skin. Density uses eco-friendly gas cooling at five different intensity levels.
Cooling happens before, during, and after each energy pulse. This protects your epidermis while allowing deeper energy penetration. Dr. Saluja adjusts cooling based on your skin sensitivity and treatment area.
Density comes with six specialized tips designed for different body areas and skin characteristics. Each tip affects how deep the energy penetrates and how it spreads across your skin.
These tips work well for most facial treatments. They deliver both monopolar and bipolar frequencies with 600 shots per treatment session.
These are perfect for thin skin areas like eyelids, lips, and around the eyes.
Designed for thicker skin areas and larger surface zones like the abdomen, arms, or thighs. These tips deliver 500 shots of dual-frequency energy per session.
These provide monopolar energy only and work well for patients who need single-frequency treatments. Shot counts range from 500-600, depending on the specific tip.
Dr. Saluja selects the right tip combination based on your treatment areas and skin characteristics.
Radiofrequency tightening works well, but combining it with other treatments enhances your results. Dr. Saluja often pairs Density with neuromodulators and dermal fillers to address volume loss alongside skin laxity.
The heating from radiofrequency can improve how injectable treatments integrate and last. Some patients benefit from combining it with laser treatments that target different aging factors.
We look at your specific concerns to determine which combination will give you the most comprehensive improvement.
At Saluja Cosmetic and Laser Center, we use Density to deliver precise energy where your skin needs it most. Dr. Saluja’s experience with advanced aesthetic treatments means you get the right energy settings and tip selection for your skin.
