The Apollo system, powered by patented TriPollar technology, is an advanced anti-aging solution for wrinkles and rhytides reduction. The safety and effectiveness of TriPollar technology has been proven in clinical studies and published in eight peer review papers.
During treatment, RF energy heats the dermal skin layer causing the collagen fibers to contract. The contraction causes immediate wrinkle reduction through skin tightening. Simultaneously, the RF energy stimulates the fibroblasts cells to produce new collagen. Over the full treatment course, the neocollagenisis results in the thickening of the dermal layer which translates into long-term wrinkle and rhytides reduction.
The Apollo treatment is ideal for surgery-averse patients seeking visible and measurable results. Treatment is completely non-invasive, painless and fast and can be carried out on all skin types and colors. It is a simple walk-in walk-out treatment with no downtime and no side-effects. Patients enjoy visible results from the very first treatments and long-term results are achieved by undergoing a personalized treatment series.
Proven TriPollar technology
TriPollar technology is an advanced 3rd generation radio-frequency (RF) based solution designed by Pollogen Ltd. TriPollar technology is unique in that it harnesses the inherent benefits of RF technology and overcomes the limitations of previous mono-polar and bio-polar technologies.
Patented TriPollar technology focuses the RF current between 3 or more electrodes and limits the energy to the treatment area only. The current flows between the electrodes and a sophisticated algorithm controls the polarity and activation of each electrode. As a result, the depth of penetration is variable allowing for the simultaneous heating of both the dermis and hypodermis (subcutaneous) skin layers, without injuring the epidermis.
Since the RF energy is highly focused, less power is required with TriPollar than with other RF technologies. The control algorithms prevent overheating of the skin and eliminate the need for skin and applicator cooling. This ensures a superior safety profile and a painless treatment. TriPollar technology was first introduced outside of the United States in 2008 and has since been used on millions of satisfied patients in over 60 countries.
What U.S. Physicians Are Saying About TriPollar Technology:
“The Apollo, using TriPollar technology to generate energy and ultimately collagen tightening and remodeling, is quickly finding its place amongst the skin tightening technologies. The use of TriPollar allows for heat to be disseminated through the skin with minimal pain and discomfort, unlike previous generations of some of our skin tightening modalities. Less pain means more comfort for our patients, and combined with the clinical efficacies which have been demonstrated, makes the Apollo one of those go-to machines for skin tightening.”
Michael Gold, M.D, Nashville, TN
“The Apollo is a tremendous advancement in non-surgical body contouring. What’s exciting is one device can improve cellulite, lax skin, and overall contour.”
Amy Taub, M.D., Chicago, IL
“As principle investigator of Pollogen’s FDA clinical trial, I am pleased to be the first practice to work with TriPollar technology in the USA. We performed 136 treatments in our FDA study without any side effects. Patients reported a pleasant and pain-free experience and were satisfied with the results. I observed a significant reduction in wrinkles and overall, I am impressed by the immediate and long-term results achieved with the TriPollar technology and its strong safety profile.”
Stephen Shapiro, M.D., Boca Raton, FL
