Artigo Científico Acesso aberto Eficácia da radiofrequência no tratamento de acúmulo de adiposidade na região submentoniana: revisão de literatura(2020) kühl, Sabrina; Cichota, Adriana AparecidaLocalized adiposity is characterized by the accumulation of adipocytes in the submentonian region, forming an aesthetic dissatisfaction in the facial contour, popularly known as the double chin. The radiofrequency technique has become a non-invasive alternative for the treatment of this dysfunction. Objective: The present study aimed to perform a systematic review of the literature on the effectiveness of radiofrequency use in reducing adipose tissue in the submentonian region. Methodology: PubMed and Google Academic databases were searched from 2010 to 2020. Inclusion criteria were articles on the effects of radiofrequency on submentonian localized adiposity, and exclusion criteria were incomplete articles, inconclusive articles, paid articles, bibliographic reviews, invasive application of radiofrequency, research done on animals, association of radiofrequency with other procedures. Results: In the present study 176 articles were found, but only 4 were selected for this research meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The studies showed that there was a clinical improvement in the facial contour and reduction of submentonian fat with the use of radiofrequency. Final considerations: It was concluded that radiofrequency is effective and safe for treatments to reduce adipose tissue and facial contour, however clinical studies specifying the parameters, exposure time and characteristics of the equipment should be conducted to reference the ideal parameters to be used.
