What property makes RF safety enhanced in cosmetic treatments?

  1. High intensity

  2. Color blindness

  3. Targeted heat

  4. Deep penetration

The correct answer is: Color blindness

RF safety is enhanced in cosmetic treatments due to the property of color blindness, where the radiofrequency energy is able to differentiate between the color of the skin and the color of the targeted area to be treated. This results in more precise and targeted heat delivery to the desired area. Option A, high intensity, is incorrect because high intensity alone does not guarantee safety and can actually increase the risk of skin burns. Option C, targeted heat, is a correct statement but does not specifically mention the property that makes RF safety enhanced. Option D, deep penetration, is incorrect because deep penetration does not necessarily imply safe delivery of radiofrequency energy.
