Fractional RF Microneedling is a micro-needling treatment that uses microscopic insulated gold-coated needles to penetrate the different layers of the dermis and deliver radiofrequency energy.
The radio frequency’s deliverance throughout the skin’s layers creates both thermal microdamage from the RF and microdamage from the needle penetration as it reaches the reticular layer. This stimulates the production of collagen types 1 & 3, and elastin in the skin, helping to correct signs of scarring, sagging skin, wrinkles, texture, and signs of ageing. Whether you have atrophic scarring, need an acne treatment, or are interested in a non-surgical facelift, this procedure is suitable for all of the above concerns due to its advanced protocol combining microneedling with radiofrequency.
As it delivers energy primarily to the dermis, it limits the risk of hyperpigmentation, making it suitable for most skin types.
How Does Fractional RF Microneedling Work?
The RF microneedling handpiece delivers the radiofrequency energy to the desired layers of the dermis and epidermis to achieve thermal coagulation within the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production. It is a great way to help with wrinkle, fine lines, as skin tightening treatment and oily skin treatment as it helps to put excessive sebum production under control.
What does Fractional RF Microneedling do?
Microneedling treatment is a common medical practice, but RF Microneedling incorporates radiofrequency to maximise results. Tiny insulated gold needles deliver radiofrequency into the skin.
The needles are insulated, ensuring the energy is precisely delivered to the desired depth. The needle length can be altered to treat the patient’s specific concern. That’s why it is great as an anti-ageing procedure, a potential alternative to a facelift, and a great option for those who have already tried derma planning and are used to micro-needling.
Once the needles have penetrated the skin, the RF energy is delivered and heats the area to 65 degrees to achieve blood coagulation through an electrothermal reaction. This blood coagulation stimulates collagen and elastin, which helps to heal the skin after the micro damage caused throughout the layers of the skin.
