Does anyone here have any thoughts or experience with radio frequency devices for at home use such as the STOP and POSE by Tripollar to tighten skin on the face and body? The POSE is for the body and melts cellulite as well as tighten the skin. The STOP is for the face and neck and does not affect facial fat. They are only approved and sold in the UK and Israel, but CurrentBody.com ships to the US. You can read information there about how these devices work. These devices are also listed on Ebay.

Dr. Pickart or Skin Bio Team- What do you think about these devices especially since they are not FDA approved for use in the US?

Obviously I'm not Skin Biology. Here is a link to a forum about RF home devices:

If it works, which it does appear to work at least according to one poster. The question is how and does it damage the skin in the process?

As Dr. Pickart has said a Bee Sting will tighten the Skin and there are techniques that will temporarily tighten the skin by frying the Collagen like Bacon.

One thing certain, regardless of how it works. Its temporary and will require regular and repeated use to maintain results.

I doubt if they do anything. Every company selling such types of products is also hiring people to post positive results whether they used such products or not.
