Radio wave surgery is a minimally invasive method of excision and coagulation of soft tissues and is used to remove or correct the skin, warts, neoplasms, birthmarks, moles, scars. It is also used as a cosmetic procedure after surgery such as removal of hernia bags under the eyes.

During radio wave surgery, the tissues to be corrected are removed using electrical energy, which is then converted into heat by the resistance of the tissues.

Unlike electrocautery, in this procedure the heat generated by the tissues is converted and the electrode actually remains cold, so it does not burn or damage the surrounding tissues. Since there is no pressure during radio wave surgery, tissue cells are effectively vaporized in the path of the radio waves, causing them to separate from each other.

Using radio wave surgery

Radio frequency or radio wave surgery is extremely versatile and can be used in many medical fields, including general surgery, craniofacial surgery, maxillofacial surgery, maxillofacial surgery, gynecology and neurosurgery.

In dermatology and cosmetic medicine, it is used for minor surgical procedures such as the removal of telangiectasias, bulbous growths on the nose, nevi (birthmarks and moles), postoperative disorders, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia.

In plastic surgery, radiosurgery is used in many aesthetic procedures, such as removal of hernia bags under the eyes (blepharoplasty) and facelift. Many studies have shown that this technology also provides excellent results during the removal of superficial cancers (eg skin cancer).

What radio wave surgery is used for:

  • removal of moles, warts, seborrheic keratosis (harmless skin growths), harmless sweat gland tumors, harmless tumors inside the hair follicle
  • removal of melanocytic nevi, telangiectasias, early stage skin tumors
  • skin biopsy and graft placement scar resurfacing (chicken pox, acne, etc.)
  • primary resection of keloid scars (thick, prominent scars)
  • depilation
  • grinding in case of Rhinophyma, Daria and others
  • eyelid surgery
  • hair restoration
  • removal of plantar fibromatomas (warts on the feet, treatment of ingrown nails)
  • facelift.

Many studies have shown that radio wave surgery is more effective than laser incisions.

Benefits of radiosurgery:

  • quick healing time
  • minimal or no bleeding
  • no scars or scars
  • minimum procedure duration.
