AESTHETIC SKIN TREATMENTS

Radio Frequency Microneedling

Radio frequency and fractional micro-needling are minimally invasive treatments that reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scarring, acne scarring, sagging skin, and stretch marks.

Adding Radiofrequency energy to the microneedling procedure helps further stimulate the body’s natural collagen and healing processes, revealing firmer, rejuvenated skin.

Radio Frequency Microneedling

How Does Radio Frequency Microneedling Work?

Radio frequency energy heats the underlying layers of skin, causing constriction and tightening and stimulating collagen and elastin production. Because the RF energy is delivered deeply, it can produce faster, more dramatic results.

Radio frequency microneedling uses tiny gold-plated needles in a device that gently penetrates the skin. This device delivers radio frequency waves (as heat) deep into the dermal layers of the skin, where the radio frequency heats at depths that provide cumulative and ongoing benefits of collagen stimulation, skin tightening, and resurfacing.

Microneedling (collagen induction therapy) is a minimally invasive treatment used for decades to rejuvenate the skin. A device with fine needles or pins creates tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin, which triggers the body to produce new collagen and elastin.

  • Results can include improved texture and firmness, as well as skin resurfacing. RF micro-needling adds the element of radiofrequency energy to the traditional micro-needling procedure.

    The RF energy is delivered via tiny needles into the dermis. In addition to the benefits seen with the micro-injury provided by conventional microneedles, RF micro-needling also delivers RF energy deep into the dermis, further enhancing skin tightening and scar reduction.

    Microneedling and radio frequency, a proven and safe technology, are used to reduce and improve wrinkles, stretch marks, and acne scars and generally improve the tone and texture of the skin.

    Results can include smoother, tighter, more radiant skin. Radio frequency has long been used and is a proven technology. It helps stimulate the body’s natural healing processes and stimulates collagen fibres.

    Microneedling and Radio Frequency give you beautiful, smoother, healthier, younger-looking skin.
