HOW DOES AMFLI TECHNOLOGY WORKS ON TISSUES?
Through the applicator bi-polar electrodes, ThermaLipo-II™ measures skin impedance and automatically adjusts for optimal RF frequency. Dominant frequencies of the AMFLI technology are from 0.6 MHz to 4.0 MHz. When starting an application the electrodes detect high impedance of the targeted skin and the system emphasizes a lower frequency. This RF energy affects deeper tissue layers until hyperemia begins. Impedance then reduces, due to the increase of tissue temperature, and consequently the system emphasizes higher frequencies which heat the upper part of the dermis that houses nociceptors. When nociceptors detect the sensation of intense heat it is time to stop the application. We thus reach the optimal point on the hormetic curve (fig. 1). Fig.I. The hormetic curve: low dose stimulation versus high dose inhibition response ThermaLipo-II™’s circuitry, with its very low output impedance enables the application of radiofrequency energy free of a continuous current component thus allevi
