Silk'n Facetite Frequently Asked Questions
Silk’n technology has undergone clinical trials and has been proven clinically sound to create a thicker and suppler dermis layer that contains higher amounts of collagen fibers. The dermis layer serves as the skin’s infrastructure providing strength. Making this layer stronger will therefore create better support to the upper epidermis layer of skin and result in: -A reduction to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles -Improved skin texture that is firmer and tighter skin -Younger and more supple looking skin -A reversal in some of the signs of aging – a non-surgical face lift effect

For the best results the Silk’n Facetite should be used 2-3 times a week for 6-8 weeks. We recommend that you do not use your Facetite device more than once every other day. It is very important to let the skin rest in between each treatment session. This allows for the natural process of collagen renewal to take full effect. Once the recommended treatment course has commenced, it is suggested to use the Facetite device once every 2-4 weeks when needed in order to maintain long-term anti-aging results.

Generally speaking, Silk’n Facetite should not be used whilst the area of skin that has been treated is still healing from any other treatment or procedure. Silk’n treatments are designed to be used separately from other treatments and will provide you with the professional results you are looking for. If you do wish to combine your Silk’n sessions with other professional treatments, we recommend consulting your physician first.

It is possible to target and treat certain problem areas without having to treat the entire face. Expression lines for example can come earlier than some other signs of ageing, treating smile and frown lines or crow’s feet for example separately, can be very effective.

The Silk’n Facetite has been uniquely designed for treating the face, however it can also be used on the jaw area, neck (avoiding the thyroid), back of the hands and neck area. There is actually no clinical reason for not using it on other parts of the body however the effectiveness may be limited due to the small size and strength of the poles. It is recommended to use the Facetite around the orbital bone around the eye. Please do not use the device over a closed eye, nor across the eyelid or very close to the eye, only around on the orbital bone.

Silk’n Facetite is designed to only reach the top two layers of the skin while Trpollar Lipo is designed to reach the deeper fatty layer as well. The Silk’n Facetite is an anti-wrinkle device that aims to tighten the skin, reduce pore size and reduce fine lines and wrinkles on the delicate skin on the face, hands and d?collet? area. This is achieved through stimulating collagen growth under the skin through RF waves.
The Silk’n Lipo on the other hand is designed to reduce cellulite and reduce body fat. It aims to shrink the fat cells under the skin by stimulating the cells to release liquid fat to shrink the fat layer. It also tightens the skin simultaneously and stimulates collagen growth (like the STOP). Overall this will result in the tightening of the top layer of skin and a reduction in the fat layer beneath causing a reduction in circumference size. The Lipo is designed for use on stubborn fat areas such as: the tummy, buttock, thighs, upper arms and hips.
The two devices also differ in terms of their size (pole size) and strength.
