EMatrix History


As of the last update in September 2021, eMatrix treatments were a popular aesthetic procedure used in dermatology and cosmetic medicine. However, please note that developments may have occurred beyond that point. Let's delve into the history of eMatrix treatments up until 2021:

Introduction and Development: eMatrix is a type of skin rejuvenation treatment that uses a radiofrequency (RF) technology called Sublative Rejuvenation™. The technology was developed by a company called Syneron Candela, a leading manufacturer of medical aesthetic devices.

  • Early 2000s: Syneron Candela began researching and developing Sublative Rejuvenation™ technology.

  • 2009: Syneron Candela introduced eMatrix to the market. The device aimed to address various skin concerns such as wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and overall skin texture improvement.

How eMatrix Works: eMatrix uses fractional bipolar radiofrequency energy to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. The energy is delivered through a matrix of tiny pins on the handpiece, penetrating the deeper layers of the skin while leaving the surface relatively intact. This fractional approach helps to stimulate collagen production and skin remodeling, promoting overall skin rejuvenation.

Benefits and Applications: eMatrix gained popularity due to its minimal downtime compared to more aggressive ablative laser treatments. Some of the benefits and applications of eMatrix treatments included:

  1. Wrinkle Reduction: eMatrix helped to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving the skin a smoother and more youthful appearance.

  2. Acne Scar Improvement: The treatment was used to address mild to moderate acne scars, helping to improve the texture and tone of the skin.

  3. Skin Tightening: eMatrix stimulated collagen production, leading to improved skin elasticity and tightening.

  4. Texture and Tone Enhancement: The treatment could improve overall skin texture and tone, providing a more even and radiant complexion.

  5. Minimal Downtime: Compared to ablative laser treatments, eMatrix treatments typically had shorter downtime, allowing patients to return to their daily activities more quickly.

Limitations and Considerations: While eMatrix was considered safe and effective for many patients, it might not have been suitable for everyone. Some limitations and considerations included:

  1. Number of Sessions: Multiple treatment sessions were usually required for optimal results, depending on the individual's skin condition and goals.

  2. Skin Type: The treatment might not have been suitable for all skin types and tones.

  3. Results: While eMatrix provided noticeable improvements, it might not have achieved the same level of results as more invasive procedures like ablative lasers or surgical treatments.

  4. Maintenance: Periodic maintenance treatments were often recommended to sustain the results.

Before considering eMatrix or any other cosmetic procedure, it's crucial to consult with a qualified dermatologist or cosmetic professional to assess your individual needs and determine the most suitable treatment plan. This is why is so important to visit an experienced and well recognized Center like Satori Laser.

Please keep in mind that advancements in technology and medical research continue to occur, so we recommend checking with a reliable medical source or healthcare professional for the most up-to-date information on eMatrix treatments.
