Abstract (English):	Plastic Surgery offices are currently full of patients who have growing expectations about the outcome of the treatments made with different energy sources. The aim is to get a high cosmetic benefit index with the lowest number of sessions and recovery time. The three elements we can work with are tone, texture and pigmentary skin disorders. The light and radiofrequency systems allow the combination of different treatment levels, such as deep dermis, papillary dermis and epidermis. These systems represent a complement for the surgical procedures, providing a "biological" concept as they stimulate the tissue regeneration and the neocollagenosis. In this article we describe the fundamentals of these complementary treatments for plastic surgeons. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish):	Las consultas de Cirugía Plástica se están llenando de pacientes con expectativas crecientes acerca de los resultados de los tratamientos con distintas fuentes de energía. El objetivo es conseguir un elevado índice de beneficio cosmético en el mínimo número de sesiones y con un tiempo breve de recuperación. Los tres elementos sobre los que podemos trabajar son el soporte, la textura y las alteraciones pigmentarias de la piel. Los sistemas de luz y de radiofrecuencia permiten combinar distintos niveles de tratamiento, como son la dermis profunda, la dermis papilar y la epidermis y constituyen un complemento a los procedimientos quirúrgicos, aportando un concepto "biológico" al estimular la regeneración y la neocolagenogénesis. En este artículo se describen los fundamentos de estos tratamientos complementarios que son de obligado conocimiento para los cirujanos plásticos. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
