Radiofrequency technology has come a long way since its development. Now with the advent of fractionated sublative radiofrequency, a very safe yet effective power delivery can be ensured. A powerful radiofrequency generator ensures a good amount of bulk heating while a fractionated technology can make that safer and more targeted. Tweaking a few parameters, a simultaneous very fine superficial ablation along with deeper bulk tissue heating can be achieved. The technology works to achieve a smoother treatment experience and significantly reduced downtime. The efficacy was judged from the qualitative & quantitative reduction of scars, textural changes, pigmentary spots, pores & acne flare by the visual observer scale as reported by the patient and the quantitative differences analyzed by the doctor by comparing the before and after photographs. Majority of patients reported little or no downtime as compared to other contemporary rival technologies. This was the single most important factor for a zero dropout rate during the entire course of this study. This has sparked interest for this new technology equally amongst fellow colleagues and patients alike.
