Treatment Modalities Index
An objective categorization of clinical procedures by mechanism of action, intended outcome, and physiological impact.
Energy-Based Devices (EBD)
-
Laser Resurfacing (Ablative & Non-Ablative)
Utilizes specific light wavelengths to vaporize tissue or heat the dermis, prompting collagen remodeling.
-
Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling
Combines mechanical injury with deep thermal coagulation via insulated needles.
-
High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU)
Bypasses the epidermis to target the SMAS layer for structural lifting.
-
LED Light Therapy
Low-level light therapy using red (633nm) and near-infrared (830nm) wavelengths for mitochondrial stimulation.
