Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling is the next generation, minimally-invasive microneedling treatment that delivers radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis layer of skin and stimulates the natural skin healing process to increase collagen and elastin for a younger, firmer and rejuvenated skin.
The procedure involves creation of several, tiny, micro-channels. The advanced technology of flow needles deliver RF energy deep into the skin to heat the skin. This not only stimulates collagen growth but also encourages tissue tightening. Collagen production results in younger looking, rejuvenated skin, while tissue tightening encourages reduction in the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and even acne scars.
The RF microneedling treatment uses ultrafine needles and heat to penetrate the top layer of skin and trigger the body’s natural healing process to regenerate new collagen & elastin. Unlike other skin treatments, these treatments can be performed on ALL skin types, anywhere on the body and anytime of the year.
The RF Microneedling treatment can treat a wide variety of skin concerns on the face & body. Specializing in active acne, acne scars, fine lines & wrinkles, loose skin on the face & body, crepey-ness & over all rejuvenation to the skin.
Like any laser treatment new collagen & elastin building can typically take 4-6 weeks after a treatment is done, with optimal results being seen 12 weeks after the last treatment of the series. The number of passes and penetration to the skin will also affect the results seen.
Treatment times will vary on patient, area of the face or body being treated, penetration depth and number of passes, but most Potenza treatments, including topical numbing times are performed within 1 hour.
The skin can look slightly red for up to 3 days. Any redness can be easily covered with light make up.
Best results for microneedling are seen when done in a series. On average most patients see amazing improvement with 3 treatments. When dealing with deeper acne scars we sometimes recommend 5. Treatments are best spread 1 month apart.
Traditional microneedling involves a special device that produces micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate the body’s own healing response and initiate collagen and elastin production, which tightens the skin and reduces the appearance of common skin complaints including acne scarring and fine lines.
RF Microneedling involves an additional element of radiofrequency energy (heat) that enables more dramatic and faster results. The RF energy is delivered deep into the dermis layer of the skin via small needles. The RF energy heats the underlying layers of skin, triggering constriction and enhancing skin tightening. The process stimulates collagen and elastin production, which helps to reduce the appearance of acne scarring and aging signs.
RF Microneedling is suitable for almost all skin types and tones. The treatment is minimally invasive and can help addressed the following skin concerns:
The number of treatments required vary from person to person. This depends on the nature of an individual’s skin concerns and how the body responds to the treatment.
For most patients, full results are achieved after 2-4 treatment sessions, with sessions every 4 – 6 weeks, on average.
Results can take anywhere from 1 to 6 months to be noticeable, however, many patients achieve full results after their 2nd or 3rd treatment. The longevity of results varies from person to person and depends on the patient’s natural aging process.
