Can you use it on to tighten loose skin on the bust area?
24th Jul, 2009 by Pam from Manchester
We do not recommend using the device on the breast area. STOP can be used on the face, hands, neck and décolleté (cleavage) areas only.

Will it help stretch marks - or would POSE be better for that?
26th Jul, 2009 by Pam from Manchester
We are not claiming to eliminate stretch mark with the STOP or POSE. However, clinical studies have shown improvement and reduction in the sizes of the stretch marks due to the skin tightening. The internal heating that stimulates dermal activity and increasing collagen fibers production and replenishment, tighten the skin. The result of skin tightening is that it could reduce the size of the stretch marks.

is it safe to use,if you have botox or facial fillers?
9th Aug, 2009 by Delia from Cambridge
TriPollar STOP or Tripollar POSE should not be used if you have had any surgical procedure, laser resurfacing or deep chemical peeling in the treatment area within the last 3 months or still undergoing a process of complete healing. STOP can be safely used in combination with non-invasive LASER/IPL treatments or fillers. In case of natural fillers and Botox injections, it is recommended to wait 2-3 weeks prior to using the Stop on the same area. One should consult a doctor prior to combing treatments in any case of uncertainty.

Will the device help with a Turkey Neck, I have some loose skin just under my chin area due to weight loss will it help tighten this area up? Many Thanks Shirley
28th Aug, 2009
by shirley from South West
The Stop is a home-use device and the treatment is mild and safe. As such, one should not expect dramatic changes in areas with deep folds and excessively loose skin but rather gradual and cumulative skin tightening and firming due to the stimulation of collagen regeneration.

Can we use olive oil or grape seed oil to massage with STOP ? As I have a very sensitive skin. thanks
9th Sep, 2009
by farah debi from indonesia
No - the Tripollar STOP can only be used in conjunction with the STOP preparation gel. You can use any cream or oil you want to calm the skin AFTER the treatment, but the STOP cream is highly recommended for this. (Please note the STOP gel is for use before treatment, and the STOP cream is for use after).

Can the Tripollar Pose be used for under the chin area? Is the POSE better than the STOP for firming a double chin?
10th Sep, 2009 by Paula from South Wales
The Tripollar Stop is designed for the loose, slack skin in the under the chin area. The Pose, can be carefully used for a fatty under chin (double chin) since it targets the fatty deposits in addition to it's skin tightening effect.
by Denise Van Okker
Can the Tripollar Stop be used to target fatty deposits on the body?
10th Sep, 2009 by Paula from South Wales
No - the Tripollar STOP is designed for the face, however the Tripollar POSE is perfect for targeting fatty deposits.
by Denise Van Okker
Is it ok to exfoliate and continue using normal anti aging products?
11th Sep, 2009 by Louise from Scotland
Hi Louise, Yes - it is fine to continue using your existing anti-aging products alongside the Tripollar Stop.
by Denise Van Okker
Hi, if I buy both pose and stop, can I use either both gel or do I have to use the specific gel for each?
21st Sep, 2009 by Labergue from Greece
Thank you very much for your question. The Stop and the Pose work in different ways, therefore the gels are also formulated differently so it's not recommended that you use one gel with the other device.
by Denise Van Okker
Can you get micro dermabrasion while using Tripollar Stop?
13th Oct, 2009
by Lynn from Scotland
Tripollar Stop and Microdermabrasion can be combined unless the skin is sensitive or becomes irritated, in which case you should wait until complete recovery.

by Andrew Showman
Hi, I was wondering if the Pose can be used on the face area at all? I was told that my little pouches under the eye area, on top of cheeck is called malar bags by a physican. He said it's mostly comprised of fat tissue. Wonded, if the Pose could melt down the fat some and also in lower jowl and under chin area. Then can I use the Stop to help tighten up areas. Just want to avoid surgery as much as possible. Thanks.

by Cece from Japan
The Pose cannot be used on the facial areas such as under the eyes and the cheeks - the skin in these areas are too delicate and the Pose is not suitable in term of technical specifications, parameters and configuration. However the Pose can be used to treat double chin area. The Tripollar Stop is designed for the face. This is from the manufacturer: TriPollar™ POSE™ helps patients achieve younger-looking, smoother skin without undergoing expensive surgeries such as lose double chin surgery or face lift - and the results won’t fade after a few months. TriPollar™ POSE™ treats double chin by utilizing two consecutive effects: first, it reduces the local fat in the chin area by reducing the size of the fat cells. Second, it tightens the sagging skin in the chin area. The TriPollar™ RF energy tighten skin by heating the collagen under the skin’s surface, causing the skin to contract (tighten). Facial skin tightening is noticeable immediately after the treatment, and there is no downtime, making this an increasingly popular procedure. Additional skin tightening occurs over the next few months, but optimal results usually require 2-3 times a week for a complete session of six weeks.

If I was using POSE to treat a double chin and STOP to treat the rest of my face, would I use the seperate gels that come with each unit then?
24th Nov, 2009
by Mehmet from London
Yes - we'd advise you to use the proper gel when using each device.
by Denise Van Okker
Hi! I think I'm going to buy one but is it ok to use tripollar Stop if I have a chin implant ?(no metal and I was operated in 2004) Thank you
25th Nov, 2009
by Alex from France
If the implant is made of solid silicone, the Stop can be used on the chin area. However it is recommended to consult with your aesthetic physician since implants may include other compounds which might be contraindicated.

Can the Stop be used on elbows?
25th Nov, 2009 by Emilia from USA
We don’t have any clinical data on this treatment area yet, but we believe that it would work as it would for hands.
by Denise Van Okker
I want to order to STOP product for delivery in the U.S. Included in the list of items in the kit is a STOP Power Supply and a STOP Electrical Outlet Adaptor. Before buying I want to make sure that these things will accommodate the U.S. electrical outlet specifications (given that the UK's specifications are different). Will I need to buy additional adapters to use the STOP device in the U.S., or will these things be provided in the kit?
31st Dec, 2009
by Joe from Cambridge, MA
Yes - the Tripollar Stop can be used in the US and we provide the necessary plugs. You don't need any extra adapters.

Can I use it on my eyelids? If not, how close to the eyes can I use it?
1st Feb, 2010 by Louise from Stafford
No…the treatment around the eyes should only be on the areas that has a bone underneath.
by Denise Van Okker
I've received the product quickly thanks - is it normal for the orange light to flicker?
8th Feb, 2010 by Jody from Leicester
That is completely normal. The Orange light should flicker and then it should be steady. Once it starts to flick then you need to continue with the slow movement in the same area, then it will be steady. A faulty device would not show an orange light at all.

Hello, can STOP cause pigmentation of the skn, or an increase in freckles?
9th Feb, 2010
by Sherie from London
No… RF (radio frequency) is a "color blind" technology which can not cause any pigmentation.

Hi, Im 41 and now have enlarged pores and very dehydrated skin (not dry). Would STOP solve both these problems please?
14th Feb, 2010
by Karen from Leeds
Thanks for your question Karen. We don’t have experience with enlarged pores. In general the skin looks firmer and tighter after Stop treatments.
by Denise Van Okker
I have a Sauna in my house - are the benefits to using the Stop treatment in the sauna?
16th Feb, 2010 by Risa from Nottingham
The sauna's environment which has a high humidity, is not good for the device (plastic, electronics etc). so we do not recommend using it in a sauna.
by Denise Van Okker
Can the stop be used along with an tua viso facial exerciser?
25th Feb, 2010 by Debra from Austin, Texas
Yes - the Tripollar Stop can be used with the Tua Viso Facial Exerciser, as long as the skin is not too sensitive after the tua viso treatment. STOP works on the dermis and not on muscles.
by Denise Van Okker
Can I use the Tripollar Pose and Stop every other day or even every day?
25th Feb, 2010 by Paula from Halifax
This is not recommended. The skin might become too dry and sensitive if it is used everyday.
by Denise Van Okker
After I use STOP or Pose, will my skin be more sensitive in the sun? Can I use it in the summer?
6th Mar, 2010 by Mary from Athens
It is always recommended to protect your skin when you go out to the sun, however, using TriPollar will not make your skin photosensitive. Therefore, it is OK to go out to the sun during treatment and get a tan. Unless you have sunburn, you can safely continue with your TriPollar treatments.
by Denise Van Okker
After using the Tripollar Stop for six weeks,would the results fade if the top ups were not continued? do the results last forever? Also,do the creams come with the unit, and in with the price.
6th Mar, 2010
by Denise from Wales
For optimal and long-lasting results, it is recommended you use the STOP 2-3 times a week for 6-8 weeks. Wait at least 48 hours between sessions to allow the skin's natural process of building new collagen. After that, Stop should be used for maintenance and enhancement of the clinical results, once every couple of weeks or as needed. There is no limit on the use of the device. Results of course don’t last for ever as we can’t stop ageing! A preparation gel and an after-treatment cream is included with the device.
by Denise Van Okker
I'm 35 , with oily skin and enlarged pores. I have intense lines between the nose and the lips and 2 annoying wrinkles on the left and right of my lips. Would you recommend I use the Tripollar Stop?
8th Mar, 2010
by Deborah from Chester
We definitely recommend you use the Tripollar Stop because of all the below: The TriPollar technology has been clinically proven to create a thicker suppler dermis layer containing higher amount of collagen fibers. Since the dermis layer serves as the skin's infrastructure, making it stronger will create a better support to the upper (epidermis) layer of the skin and result in: o Reversing the signs of ageing o Reduced appearance of wrinkles and fine lines o Younger more supple looking skin o Firmer, tighter, better textured skin
by Denise Van Okker
I have broken veins on my cheeks, can I still use TriPollar Stop?
8th Mar, 2010 by Andrea from London
That is no problem - you can use the Stop. The veins might be more visible immediately after the treatment but it will go back once the immediate effect is over.

My face and hands are much smoother!
I wanted to get the Tripollar Stop when it first came out, but I could not afford it at nearly £400.
So, when I saw it on your website at such a good price (£229), I just had to have it. And I'm very glad I did.
During the past two weeks I've noticed that both my face and hands are much smoother and the tiny lines are now gone.
The Stop is also very easy to use and the gel and cream supplied with it are of a good quality.
I am one very satisfied customer, as it is certainly working for me.Did you find this review helpful?

Stop Machine
Why isn't everyone raving about this miraculous product? I have been using the Tripollar Stop for 16 months and it has made a dramatic difference eliminating lines across the top of my cheeks, filling out the frown indentation and plumpintg up my whole face. I am well past retirement age by the way.
