    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Aesthetic Medicine
    • Medical Devices

    Background:

    • Energy-based aesthetic treatments, including radiofrequency (RF), are established for non-invasive skin disorder management.
    • Multisource RF technology (3DEEP™) enables deep dermal heating without epidermal cooling or pain.
    • This study investigates a novel handheld device for at-home RF skin treatment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new handheld multisource RF device for at-home wrinkle reduction and skin tightening.
    • To assess user satisfaction and usability of the device for independent treatments.

    Main Methods:

    • 69 participants (mean age 54.3 years) used the handheld RF device at home for 4 weeks (≥5 treatments/week).
    • The device utilizes 1MHz RF energy with controlled polarity for enhanced dermal penetration.
    • Efficacy was assessed via photographic analysis using the Fitzpatrick Wrinkle and Elastosis Scale, with follow-ups at 1 and 3 months post-treatment.

    Main Results:

    • 91.93% to 98.39% of participants showed statistically significant wrinkle improvement based on physician assessment.
    • No adverse effects were reported, and participants experienced no operational difficulties.
    • The majority of users reported high satisfaction with the device's wrinkle reduction results.

    Conclusions:

    • The tested handheld multisource RF device is safe and effective for at-home wrinkle reduction and skin tightening.
    • Independent home use of this RF device leads to significant, sustained aesthetic improvements.
    • The device offers a user-friendly and satisfactory option for consumers seeking non-invasive skin rejuvenation.
