Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the effect of non-invasive haxa-polar RF on post caesarean abdominal skin laxity. Forty post caesarean, multiparous women. They complained of post caesarean abdominal skin laxity (diagnosed by gynecologist/ physician). They were selected from a zagazig university hospital. Their ages ranged from 20 to 35 years. Their BMI ranged from 25 to 35 Kg/m2. They were divided randomly according to closed envelop into two groups (A and B), equal in number. group (A) control group: Consisted of 20 women who received vacuum therapy (mechanical massage), 1 session per week for 8 weeks. group (B) study group: Consisted of 20 women who received non invasive haxa-polar radiofrequency, 1 session per week for 8 weeks and vacuum therapy (mechanical massage), 1 session per week for 8 weeks. The duration of treatment sessions was being 8 weeks. Improvment was evaluated by tab measurment to identify abdominal skin laxity ratio before and after the program for both groups. The obtained results showed a statistically significant decrease (P<0.01) in the percent improvement in skin laxity ratio in both groups, when both groups were compared together, a statistically significant decrease (P<0.01) in the percent improvement in skin laxity ratio was found in group (B) than group (A) So that, it could be concluded that the hexapolar radiofrequency was very effective in treatment of post cesarean abdominal skin laxity
