AMM 359: Microwave Makeover: Revolutionizing Skin Tightening with Salsi’s System
February 27, 2025
Explore the latest advancement in aesthetic medicine with a novel microwave-based system designed to combat double chins and sagging skin. Operating at 2.45 GHz, this non-invasive technology targets subdermal fat while preserving outer skin layers, offering precise and gentle treatment without the need for surgery. Patients experience improved skin tone after just two sessions with minimal pain or downtime. A continuous cooling mechanism ensures safety and comfort, and results are promising across various ages and skin types. Despite a small initial study, this technology shows potential to transform body contouring practices.

- Patients experience skin tone improvements after just two sessions, with no significant pain or downtime; continuous cooling mechanism ensures patient comfort and safety
Episode Transcript
Today is February 16, 2025, and we’re diving into the microwave world of aesthetic medicine. It seems that those bothersome double chins and sagging skin might have met their match with a novel microwave-based system. The system operates on a frequency of 2.45 GHz, offering a non-invasive alternative to traditional surgical procedures like liposuction.
The technology specifically targets subdermal fat without affecting the outer layers of the skin, making it both precise and gentle. Patients experience notable improvements in skin tone after just two sessions, without significant pain or downtime. This system’s handpiece is designed to speed up treatment times, providing a faster and more comfortable experience, as seen when comparing results to other tools used in previous studies by Salsi et al.
Interestingly, the system’s continuous cooling mechanism ensures the skin remains at a safe temperature, enhancing patient comfort and safety. Although the study had a small sample size of ten females, all reported significant improvements regardless of age or skin type, signaling a promising future for this technology in body contouring.
Though it requires further validation, this microwave-based treatment could revolutionize how we tackle submental skin laxity. Let’s keep a keen eye on future developments! Stay fabulous, and I’ll catch you next time.
