RF radio frequency technology has been widely used in the medical beauty industry for nearly 20 years. Based on its non-invasiveness and good treatment effect, it has been deeply loved by dermatologists and customers.
Since the birth of the first radio frequency therapeutic apparatus in 2002, radio frequency technology has also undergone several generations of changes. The overall development trend is to increase the controllability of penetration depth and greatly enhance the safety and comfort of treatment.
So what is radio frequency?
Radio frequency is an electromagnetic wave with energy and penetrating power; radio frequency passes through the epidermis and reaches the dermis. The electromagnetic energy is converted into heat energy. It can burn the dermis lightly and controllably and destroy the existing (slightly aging) in the dermis. Collagen, which stimulates the skin’s repair mechanism, produces new collagen to replace the collagen damaged by heat.
In layman’s terms, radio frequency is a bit like “sweeping the floor with a broom, sweeping a large area”-the area of action is large, but the point of action is not very precise, and the energy per unit area is not particularly high. Compared with the laser that is often heard by the general public, the contrast is clear-the action area is small, the position is accurate, and the energy density is high.
Types of radio frequency:
Usually in the current beauty equipment market, it is divided into monopolar radio frequency and bipolar radio frequency
Monopolar RF devices emit radio waves through one electrode – there’s usually a single probe or contact point placed on the skin, then a grounding pad at a distance. That means the current has no choice but to travel through the body’s many layers of skin and fat to connect with its grounding pad. Remember in school when you learned about positive and negative electrical conductors, which connect together in a circuit? That’s what’s happening here.
Depending on its temperature, monopolar RF can extend to the dermis, as well as the subcutaneous fat deposits below the skin itself. Thanks to this powerful reach, monopolar RF is commonly used to contour larger tissue areas, such as the abdomen, thighs, arms and buttocks.

Whereas, with bipolar RF, the electrical range is delivered from a probe with two symmetrical electrodes (one positive; the other negative) placed over the treatment area. The alternating current of energy goes back and forth between these two points.
The depth of heating and tissue reached depends on the distance between the two points, but is typically between 2 to 4mm. Overall, bipolar RF penetrates a smaller volume of tissue at a more superficial depth. While less penetrating, bipolar RF is more suitable for sensitive areas, such as the eyes and face.
Here some some of our device are using the bipolar RF technology,such as hydo beauty, Fractional Microneedle RF and so one
