Viora ReFit and severe Fat Necrosis to Face.

February 6, 2017
Asked By:Louise1981 in Little York, IN

I sought Viora Refit treatment to tighten epidermis in Mode 3 (most superficial). The MedSpa treated me in Mode 1, 2 and 3 at a very high level, a deep treatment to fatty layers to Forehead, Eyes, Mouth and Cheek. In the time afterwards, this resulted in fat necrosis to theses areas, and the appearance of looser skin (not tighter) and unsightly dimples and wrinkles. Question: What are safe treatment options to reverse the damage? Is there any Radio Frequency treatment that does NOT cause fat necrosis?

Will radio-frequency and cavitation treatments affect fillers?
Diane I. Duncan, MD, FACS says:

Cavitation devices are ultrasound based, and are usually designed to affect the subcutaneous fat at a specific depth. This means that if the filler is intradermal, then the ultrasound wont have a severe affect.  Radiofrequency tends to be more thermal (where cavitation is more mechanical)...
