RADIO-FREQUENCY SYSTEM FOR SKIN TREATMENT INCLUDING A ROLLER WITH AN ELECTRODE AND A METHOD FOR SKIN TREATMENT

摘要

A method of treating a skin tissue relief feature (3) in mammalian, in particular human, skin tissue (1) is provided. The method comprises the steps of: determining a perimeter (4) of the relief feature and inducing contraction of skin tissue areas (5) present on opposite sides of the relief feature in positions adjacent to respective portions of the perimeter in a direction of contraction substantially parallel to a skin surface and substantially normal to the respective portions of the perimeter. A system is also provided comprising a radio-frequency source (9) and an applicator with a roller.

1. A method of treating a skin tissue relief feature in mammalian, in particular human, skin tissue, the method comprising the steps of:
determining a perimeter of the relief feature and a number of skin tissue areas present on opposite sides of the relief feature in positions adjacent to respective portions of the perimeter at an outward side of the perimeter, and inducing contraction of the skin tissue areas in a direction of contraction substantially parallel to a skin surface and substantially normal to the respective portions of the perimeter.
