Radiofrequency (RF) current is used as an effective non-ablative method for skin rejuvenation. However, mixed results have been reported using different home-use RF devices. In order to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of home-use RF devices, this study has provided a three-dimensional (3D) simulation procedure based on the electrothermal coupling model for home-use RF devices.

Nasal polyps, as a subtype of chronic sinusitis, is prone to clinical recurrence and seriously affects the quality of life of patients, but its pathogenesis is unclear. It is considered to be a chronic inflammation of the nasal-sinus mucosa under the combined action of multiple factors. Among them, nasal mucosal epithelial injury and shedding are the main pathological features.
