RF Microneedling
Collagen Induction Therapy
Radio Frequency (RF) Microneedling is the combination of microneedling technology and radio-frequency energy which administers precise treatments to specific cells within the skin. The precise treatments activate the body to naturally stimulate collagen and elastin growth, renewing the skin. By adding radio frequency to microneedling, little social downtime is experienced with slight pinkness of the skin lasting only a few hours.
Benefits of RF Microneedling
The benefits of RF Microneedling include:
The RF Difference
Microneedling is a handheld device that administers tiny needles into the skin at a precise depth with each needle smaller than the width of human hair. By creating these micro wounds, the body naturally responds by stimulating collagen and elastin growth, essential for skin renewal. By adding radio-frequency, the needles are gold plated and insulated. The needles are insulated at the top layer of the skin keeping it safe from treatment while allowing precise energy to the deep collagen building level. Thus, the treatment results are increased while the effects to the top layers of the skin are decreased. A great advantage is that RF Microneedling can be safely used on all skin types including darker and tanned skin and with those experiencing active acne. In addition, you will experience virtually no social downtime with our clients experiencing only a slight pink for a few hours.
What to Expect
During Your Appointment
Prior to the treatment, you and your esthetician will discuss your concerns and establish your treatment plan. Your skin will be cleansed skin and numbing cream applied (if applicable). The treatment will be divided into sections with serums applied throughout the treatment. Immediately following your treatment, you will experience our healing mask to decrease any post redness and increase your healing time. You will be sent home with an additional serum to continue the healing and collagen rebuilding at home.
After Care
It is vital to keep your skin clean and hydrated with professional products. Stay out of the sun and ensure SPF is used on the treated area. Pinkness of the skin is common due to activated and desired blood circulation. It should dissipate within a few hours. However, sensitivity of the skin varies and the pink color may last slightly longer. Refrain from makeup and exercise until skin has calmed and no longer is pink.
