Radiofrequency (RF) is a form of electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength between 3 kHz and 300 GHz.
In medical aesthetics, RF energy is used to generate controlled heat within the tissues beneath the skin’s surface. When RF energy passes through the tissue it gets absorbed by certain molecules in the form of kinetic energy, this is then converted to thermal energy, causing heat to build up in the targeted area.
Why Radiofrequency?
OligioX utilizes RF energy at a frequency of 6.78 MHz, which penetrates the skin to create deep heating (40–60 ºC) in the tissue. This heat stimulates cellular responses that promote collagen production and tissue remodeling.
Safety Features
OligioX is designed with patient safety as a top priority, utilizing a multi-factor safety system that integrates:
Intelligent Cooling
The OligioX safety system works in tandem with intelligent cooling to deliver effective treatments while protecting the patient’s skin and supporting optimal application technique.
OligioX uses precisely calibrated output patterns that combine monitoring checks, bursts of cooling, and RF pulses in parallel for optimal energy delivery, safety, and patient comfort.
Treatment Protocol & Mechanism of Action
Dual Mode G / X
OligioX features innovative dual operation modes to maximize treatment efficacy.
Combination Treatments
Use G or X mode alone, or combined within the same session using the GXG or GX protocol for optimized results. These advanced treatment protocols leverage the dual mode system to control heating in all tissue layers. Pre-heating with G Mode lowers skin impedance allowing for more effective transfer of energy, and enables gentile buildup of heat. Core-heating with X Mode delivers powerful energy directly to the most effective depth. G Mode can then be used to capture and sustain the duration of heating in the deeper tissue.
