volnema

Volnuma is a next-generation non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) treatment device designed to minimize discomfort. Radiofrequency (RF) therapy involves applying radio waves—a type of electromagnetic wave—to the skin. This treatment delivers heat deep within the skin while minimizing damage to the epidermis, thereby achieving a lifting effect.

Volnuma delivers overwhelmingly high thermal energy at 6.78MHz, targeting the dermis to the mid-fat layer near the skin surface. It stimulates the body's water molecules to vibrate, generating frictional heat that promotes skin renewal. This results in tightening from the fat layer inward, improving sagging, double chins, and wrinkles. Furthermore, it stimulates collagen production immediately after treatment, offering a rejuvenation effect that enhances skin firmness and elasticity. Additionally, its unique cooling and vibration functions, combined with a specially designed rounded tip, significantly reduce discomfort—a common drawback of previous radiofrequency (RF) treatments.

Voluma and Thermage are devices that can deliver high-frequency energy at the same 6.78 MHz frequency. Both are monopolar high-frequency (RF) treatment devices featuring a single electrode.

The major difference between Volnuma and Thermage is the intensity of the pain felt. Voluma is a treatment device designed to minimize pain, addressing a longstanding weakness of radiofrequency (RF) treatments. It incorporates unique features like a water-cooled system with continuous water flow and vibration, making it more effective at reducing discomfort compared to Thermage. Additionally, Voluma offers cartridges of varying sizes, enabling precise treatment of smaller areas such as under-eye bags, jowls, and the submental region.

Both Voluma and Hyaluronic Acid are devices capable of treating sagging skin. The main differences lie in the energy emitted and the layers targeted.

【The Difference in Energy】
Volnuma delivers radiofrequency (RF) energy, while HIFU delivers high-intensity focused ultrasound.

【Differences in Target Audience】
Voluma is more effective than HIFU at targeting the skin's superficial layers. The skin consists of the epidermis, dermis, subcutaneous tissue (fat), and SMAS layer from the surface down. Voluma targets the superficial layers of the skin—the dermis to the mid-fat layer—while HIFU targets the deeper SMAS layer.

Neither Voluma nor HIFU is inherently superior for treating sagging skin. It is important to select the appropriate treatment based on the cause of sagging and the condition of the skin. Furthermore, Voluma and HIFU, which target different layers, can be used in combination. Combination therapy using both Voluma and HIFU can provide synergistic effects for improving sagging cheeks and double chins.
