Summary:A method of treating a skin tissue relief feature (3) in mammalian, in particular human, skin tissue (1) is provided. The method comprises the steps of: determining a perimeter (4) of the relief feature and inducing contraction of skin tissue areas (5) present on opposite sides of the relief feature in positions adjacent to respective portions of the perimeter in a direction of contraction substantially parallel to a skin surface and substantially normal to the respective portions of the perimeter. A system is also provided comprising a radio-frequency source (9) and an applicator with a roller. L'invention concerne un procédé de traitement d'une caractéristique de relief de tissu de peau (3) chez un mammifère, en particulier un tissu de peau (1) d'un être humain. Le procédé comprend les étapes consistant à : déterminer un périmètre (4) de la caractéristique de relief et induire une contraction de zones de tissu de peau (5) présentes sur les côtés opposés de la caractéristique de relief dans des positions adjacentes à des parties respectives du périmètre dans une direction de contraction sensiblement parallèle à une surface de peau et sensiblement normale aux parties respectives du périmètre. L'invention concerne également un système comprenant une source radiofréquence (9) et un applicateur ayant un rouleau.
