Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling may seem like something that comes from a science fiction book, but it is the latest and most successful approach to getting firmer, clearer skin without going under the knife.
What Exactly Is Rf Microneedling?
RF micro needling provides each of the skin resurfacing advantage of standard microneedling, but incorporates the additional innovation of insulated needle that send RF energy to your skin, forming new microchannels that connect the layers of your skin. Whilst microneedles cause small incisions in the skin, prompting the body to replace damaged skin cells with new and healthy ones, the RF energy warms deep layers of the dermis, encouraging collagen formation and tissue firming, resulting in noticeably better skin that improves with time.
RF microneedling may be used to treat the following issues:
- Inconsistent skin tone and texture
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Excessive pore size
- Facial skin laxity
- Stretch marks
- Excessive pore size
What Exactly Is Radiofrequency?
RF energy is a form of electromagnetic energy that’s measured in “frequency,” or wavelengths/sec. Though it might seem to be frightening, RF energy is really on the sluggish end of the RF spectrum—over 1 billion-fold slower than an X-ray and about a 100 million-fold slower than visible light. RF also employs lower-frequency EM waves (the wave that comprises light) than lasers, allowing it to reach the skin’s deeper layers.
Don’t panic if you believe the RF utilized in microneedling is similar to the radiofrequency used in a smartphone or microwave—the RF used in non-invasive skin tightening procedures is considerably more regulated than other kinds of RF.
What Are The Benefits Of Employing Radiofrequency In Microneedling?
Microneedling is a potent therapy by itself, but when combined with RF, it takes skin regeneration to the next step. The following are some of the advantages of utilizing RF with microneedling:
- Conventional microneedling has slower outcomes due to faster cell turnover.
- Recovery time is significantly reduced as compared to laser resurfacing, standard microneedling, and chemical peels.
- RF aids in the breakdown of scar tissue.
- RF boosts collagen synthesis and tightens the skin.
- Because of the range of needle tips available on the Genius machine, therapy may be tailored to each patient.
- RF microneedling, in contrast to other skin rejuvenation procedures, is suitable for all types and tones of skin.
- Almost every portion of the body with wrinkles, discolouration, or acne scars may be treated.
How Many Sessions Will I Require?
Most of our customers notice considerably more even and smoother skin after only one RF micro needling therapy; nevertheless, we have discovered that three sessions are required to realize significant skin tone and texture changes. And because RF microneedling stimulates your skin’s elastin and collagen production following treatment, you should expect results to grow for months.
What Is the Treatment Procedure for RF Microneedling?
A dermatologist might administer numbing lotion to the target region an hour before the MNRF treatment to alleviate any discomfort or pain. He’ll then continue to apply the modern equipment on the skin by gently rubbing it against it. The needle in the tip thus, can deposit RF radiation at the chosen depth. The skin expert precisely adjusts the degree of the microneedle insertion and repeats the procedure until he obtains the desired results.
Is It Possible To Incorporate Radiofrequency Microneedling With Other Methods?
Since the RF employed in RF microneedling generates microchannels between the deep and superficial skin layers, the face will be far more susceptible to other skin rejuvenation procedures in the months that followed the treatment. We suggest that you follow up your therapy with a mild HydraFacial, chemical peel, and/or dermal filler injection or BTX to enhance your results.
How Should You Care For Your Skin After Rf Microneedling?
