How Does RF Microneedling Work?
RF Microneedling uses ultrafine needles that gently puncture your skin and deliver RF energy. As your skin heals from these wounds, your body’s collagen production soars, resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
By delivering precisely controlled RF energy deep into the skin, there’s no risk of over-heating or burning. The majority of the energy reaches collagen fibers in the mid-level dermis. RF Microneedling targets the skin’s underlying support system and restructures areas damaged by aging, acne scarring or stretch marks. By rebuilding the skin’s support system, the top-most layer of the skin appears smooth and strong, with long-lasting effects.
How Are RF Microneedling And Traditional Microneedling Different?
Traditional microneedling uses a hand-held mechanical device with sterile ultra-fine disposable needle tips to create micro-injuries to the skin. This stimulates the body’s own healing response and initiates collagen and elastin production. Applying serums or platelet rich plasma (PRP), a.k.a Vampire Facial, during the treatment allows for deeper and more effective penetration of nutrients and growth factors through the microchannels created in the skin.
RF Microneedling adds the element of radiofrequency energy to the traditional microneedling procedure. RF Microneedling gives you the benefits of traditional microneedling, plus skin tightening and additional collagen and elastin production. The RF energy delivered deep into the skin produces a faster, more dramatic results over traditional micro needling devices.
