Coax Radio Frequency Tightening
Treatment
The Coax Med procedure uses Radiofrequency technology. It has been clinically proven to tighten and gently lift the skin to smooth out wrinkles and renew facial contours.
The incision-free procedure is fast and easy, and requires no downtime from normal activities. Unlike lasers, the procedure can be performed on patients of all skin types.
The Coax Med system uses a sophisticated solid gel tip, which delivers a controlled amount of RF energy. With each touch to the skin, the gel tip device uniformly heats a large volume of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin and its underlying tissue while simultaneously protecting the outer layer of the skin with cooling. This deep, uniform heating causes structures deep in the skin to immediately tighten.
Over time, new and remodelled collagen is produced to further tighten the skin, resulting in healthier, smoother skin and a more youthful appearance.
FAQ's
How long does treatment take?
The Coax Med procedure can take anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes depending on the size of the treatment area and the number of passes required. Additional time may be required for skin preparation prior to the procedure.
How quickly can results be seen and how long will they last?
Immediately following a Coax Med procedure, the skin should feel tighter, smoother and more youthful. Further tightening improvements are likely to appear gradually during the 6 months following a treatment. Unpublished reports by experienced cosmetic physicians indicate that results may last 24 months or longer, based on the patient's natural ageing process.
Is the Coax Med procedure safe?
Coax CRF has an excellent safety record. The most frequently reported incidents are classified as swelling, redness, bumps and blisters on or around the treated area. These side effects have usually disappeared in a few days.
How long before the patient can return to normal activities?
Most people return to their regular activities immediately following the Coax Med procedure. Some people experience mild redness (like a sunburn), but it usually disappears quickly. No special care is needed after treatment.
Who is the ideal Coax Med candidate?
An ideal candidate for this skin tightening technique is a person with minimal loose tissue who is a borderline facelift candidate. Such patients could avoid a facelift if they were treated early on with Coax Med. Coax Med can be used alone or in conjunction with other procedures. For instance, sun-damaged skin could be tightened, and then treated with a Photofacial procedure or de-pigmentation programme to provide even pigmentation. The device can also selectively target areas still loose after a facelift.
