Ask a doctor  What Layer of Skin Does EMatrix Target?  A recent
answer on RS said eMatrix disperses energy under the skin & is
not absorbed by melanocytes. I'm confused about what UNDER THE
SKIN means. eMatrix minimally targets about 5% of the epidermis
where melanocytes are located. I'm assuming most of the energy
targets the dermis to stimulate collagen - which is a similar
concept to non-ablative lasers, correct? My main question is -
What prevents the eMatrix energy from reaching the
hypodermis/fat layer?  Doctor Answers 3  EMatrix is sublative
energy and focused in the dermis  Thank you for your question.
eMatrix is sublative radiofrequency (RF) energy and focused in
the dermis. At appropriate energy levels, it spares the most
superficial layers, i.e. the epidermis.   There is no downtime
with this procedure because it is sublative.  We perform eMatrix
in our Williamsville office for acne scar remodeling.   Dr.
