Is It Possible for EMatrix Radiofrequency Solution to Cause Any Fat Atrophy?

Fractional co2 and ematrix are both ablative lasers. They are unlikely to cause fat atrophy as they mainly deliver heat to the dermis. Raffy Karamanoukian MD FACS

Thank you for your question. It answers an important question that is raised by patients who are considering eMatrix treatments for the treatment of acne scars. eMatrix does not penetrate beyond the dermal layer. There is no clinical evidence that supports the loss of fat tissue (volume loss) after eMatrix treatment(s). We perform eMatrix in our acne treatment center and scar program in Williamsville, NY. 

RF or radiofrequency does not penetrate that deeply, additionally the resistance from fat is low compared to collagen, scars etc, and hence the energy is focused just a few mm down the skin surface. It may cause redness (usually short lived), swelling, and grids, but not fat atrophy.Dr Davin LimDermatologistBRISBANE, AUSTRALIA
