Microneedling RF device is a safe, state-of-the-art, device that revitalizes and improves the appearance of skin tone, texture & color. Microneedling RF takes advantage of the skin’s natural ability to heal itself and unlike lasers it can be safely used on all skin types and offers minimal downtime!
Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, uses fine needles that create controlled micro-injuries to the collagen. In addition, our microneedling RF system further injures the collagen using the heat produced by radiofrequency energy. Each tiny puncture channel triggers the skin to repair itself by producing new collagen and elastin. This repair process results in a softer appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. We also take advantage of these newly created channels, which allow for deeper penetration of products like hyaluronic acid, growth factors or exosomes to enhance their rejuvenating effects.
Everyone is a potential candidate for microneedling. As we age, our skin begins to show signs of environmental injuries such as fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and acne scars, which detract from its youthful and supple texture. Patients who desire a non-invasive facial rejuvenation procedure without the downtime of fractionated laser options or deep chemical peels are good candidates.
Topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area for comfort. Because the microneedles are moving up and down so rapidly, most patients feel only minimal discomfort or tingling during the procedure. Depending on the area, the treatment time is 15-40 minutes.
Immediately afterward, there will be a redness to the skin with a warm, tight sensation. The redness generally subsides over 1-4 days and a small amount of peeling or flakiness may occur. The improvements will continue over the next month to 6 months, with the new collagen creating improved texture and appearance.
Microneedling RF FAQs
Because the micro-needling system depth of penetration can be adjusted to several depths of penetration, it can be used to treat the face, neck and decollete
The number of microneedling treatments depends on your skin characteristics, treatment area and your goals. Most patients will require 2-3 treatments about 4-6 weeks apart. For patients with deep wrinkles or acne scars, it would be 6-8 sessions at 6-week intervals for the best results. Patients can expect to see improved results for up to 6 months and maintenance treatments every 6 months to 1 year are typically recommended.
The cost of microneedling depends on the area(s) treated and the number of sessions recommended. Microneedling is often part of a treatment package designed to combine the best of non-invasive treatments to treat your needs.
Exosomes are rejuvenating signal packets that contain substances that enhance the effectiveness of many treatments. Exosomes are often used in combination with other non-invasive treatments to enhance the results of those treatments. Exosomes and micro-needling are often combined to deliver the signal packets deeper into the skin using the microneedle process leading to a better overall result. Exosomes can also be combined with cosmetic treatments such as dermal fillers, fat transfer and IPL Photofacial treatments.
