Radiofrequency for warts, plastic surgery
Radio frequency surgery is a medical procedure in which a skin growth is ablated using the heat generated from the high frequency alternating current. The principle of radiofrequency or radiowave surgery is that it uses high frequency radiowaves, at 4.0
MHz, to deliver low temperatures through radiofrequency (RF) micro-fibre electrodes. Radio Surgery (Radiofrequency or Radiowave Surgery) is used to remove moles, warts, skin tags and other so called ‘lumps and bumps’.
Traditional electrosurgery devices cut skin tissue by passing an electric current using the electrode tip (a platinum wire) to provide resistance, effectively causing high temperature heating of the electrode tip
and excessive lateral (surrounding) tissue damage.
