Radio Frequency Microneedling Treatment
The newest most popular non-invasive aesthetics skin treatment is micro-needling with radio frequency when you are looking to improve sagging skin at 50 years.
It delivers high-intensity radio frequency energy into the targeted tissue through tiny openings in the skin made by the needles.
How Does Radio Frequency Microneedling Work?
A micro needling treatment penetrates the skin with sterile, ultra-thin needles down through the epidermis onto the dermis layer; RF Microneedling treatment takes this effective individual treatment a step further by applying radio frequency waves down the ultra-thin needles directly into the skin.
This allows the energy to reach the deeper skin layers safely to address laxity skin issues without interfering with the melanocytes of the epidermis.
The main benefit is the microneedling RF treatment does not cause hyperpigmentation in darker skin tones or damage to the most sensitive or reactive skin making it suitable for all skin complexions.
Although both radio frequency and microneedling independently treat a variety of skin laxity issues, by combining the two modalities there are a few extra benefits that make microneedling radio frequency the perfect choice for pro-ageing skin treatment for clients wanting a more natural approach to anti-aging aesthetics treatments.
What are the benefits of radio frequency micro needling?
Safe: Radio Frequency requires high temperatures to stimulate collagen production, and can be harmful to the skin as can burn the skin especially when focusing on smaller areas, such as under the eyes.
With Micro-needling RF treatments, the energy is released once the needles penetrate the skin, so this stimulates collagen production without touching the top layer of the skin, so this prevents causing burns or any damage to the epidermis.
Deep Penetration: Since the heat penetrates deep into the skin, microneedling RF can be used to reduce the deeper wrinkles in the forehead and eye brow area.
Due to the strong suction power of the microneedling hand piece it pulls the skin away from the bone as it lifts the skin this reduces the discomfort normally felt on the forehead and brow bone and can offer a deeper insertion than traditional mesotherapy serum micro-needle treatments
Versatility: Due to the degree to which the heat penetrates the skin layers, RF microneedling can be used to treat all skin concerns, from enlarged pores and stretch marks to acne scars and sun damage. This treatment works well around the under-eye area, which is susceptible to deep wrinkles, crepiness, and sagging skin.
Gentleness: Using RF microneedling reduces epidermis trauma and damage due to its non-abrasive approach on the surface of the skin. This also minimizes the redness and irritation after each treatment so reduces downtime.
Ideal for aged damaged skin: Radio frequency microneedling works well on skin that lacks tone and can be used on different skin types in any area. Any wrinkled area, or sagging skin that lacks tone can be treated easily as there is no drag to the skin.
Quick Results: The combination of radio frequency waves and collagen induction therapy of microneedling boosts collagen production levels much more efficiently than traditional on-skin treatments, providing rapid results. So, you can expect a more dramatic result in one session.
These combination treatments result in longer-lasting firmer skin than you’d get with other treatments such as CACI, microdermabrasion, or fractional radio frequency.
What are the risks Microneedling RF?
There are limited side effects or risks associated with Radio Frequency Microneedling although clients should be aware of what to expect in treatment.
Temporary redness and discomfort are normal, especially for first-timers. Every client should also remember that the results of RF microneedling treatment are quick but will take time to show full effect if the skin laxity is poor.
It can take several RF Microneedling treatments before reaching desired results.
Please do not expect one treatment to solve all your skin concerns. Due to this, you will find the Skin Rejuvenation Plan the perfect kick start intensive pro-ageing protocol to address all your skin concerns.
Radio frequency will tighten your skin and leave it feeling softer and smoother.
The heat generated via radio frequency into the skin stimulates an inflammatory response, in the deep layers of the skin to induce new collagen and elastin production and encourage cell turnover, helping skin become firmer, thicker and more youthful-looking.
Because of its lower frequency, RF penetrates deeper into tissues than lasers and may safely improve skin tone and structure, even lift the tissue over time.
RF skin tightening treatments can be carried out every 2 to 4 weeks.
Some clinics will offer a radio frequency skin treatment course, maybe a course of 6 to 8 treatments over a 12 week period to achieve skin tightening.
The collagen stimulation created from radiofrequency can take up to 4-6 weeks to be noticed or felt, so more often less is more for those clients who want to tighten their skin!
Microneedling treatments are one of the best anti-ageing treatments for skin rejuvenation.
The addition of radiofrequency to microneedling has enhanced the skin tightening benefits to micro needling.
Is it better? yes and no! Better for skin tightening saggy skin, addressing acne scars, and collagen stimulation.
