RF Microneedling
What is RF Microneedling?
RF Microneedling is an innovative technology that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. The procedure involves controlled micro-injuries made by fine needles that emit radiofrequency waves, heating the deeper layers of the skin. This process stimulates collagen and elastin production, resulting in smoother wrinkles, improved firmness, and reduced scars and pigmentation. Unlike lasers or dermabrasion, RF microneedling is safe for most skin types, including sensitive areas near the eyes.
Benefits of RF Microneedling
- Improved skin firmness and elasticity – stimulation of collagen and elastin production.
- Reduction of wrinkles – skin smoothing and softening of fine lines.Eliminating scars and stretch marks is an effective treatment for acne scars, post-surgical scars, and stretch marks.
- Even skin tone – reduction of pigmentation and evening out skin complexion.
- Pore tightening – enhancement of skin texture and reduction of large pores.
- Enhanced absorption of topical products – vacuum-assisted microneedling allows for deeper penetration of skincare products.
- Safety – a minimally invasive procedure with no prolonged downtime.
- Long-lasting results – gradual skin quality improvement that lasts for months.
Indications for the Procedure
RF Microneedling is recommended for individuals looking to enhance their skin’s appearance, especially in cases of:
- Wrinkles and loss of skin firmness,
- Acne scars,
- Pigmentation and uneven complexion,
- Stretch marks and skin laxity,
- Enlarged pores,
- Excessive sebum production,
- Loose and sagging skin.
Advanced Features of RF Microneedling
- Vacuum-assisted technology – ensures deeper penetration of topical skincare products, enhancing effectiveness by up to 67%.
- Adjustable needle depth control – from 0.4mm to 4mm, allowing treatment of different skin layers.
- Gold-plated needles have high biocompatibility and are safe for individuals with metal allergies.
- Insulated vs. non-insulated needles: Insulated needles treat the dermis only (faster recovery), while non-insulated needles treat both the epidermis and the dermis for more profound results.
- Mono & Bipolar RF modes – Mono mode penetrates deeper for body treatments, while Bipolar mode focuses on controlled energy delivery for facial treatments.
- Customisable energy levels – ensures safety and effectiveness for all skin types and conditions.
Contraindications
Although the procedure is safe, specific contraindications exist, including:
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding,
- Active skin infections (e.g., herpes, inflammatory acne),
- Autoimmune diseases and cancer,
- Tendency to develop keloid scars,
- Recently tanned skin,
- Use of anticoagulant medications.
What Does the Skin Look Like After the Procedure?
Immediately after the treatment, the skin may appear slightly red and mildly swollen, which subsides within a few hours or days. Mild peeling of the skin is also possible. Soothing creams are recommended during the first few days, and sun exposure is avoided. Full results appear gradually, and a series of treatments is recommended for the best outcomes.
RF Microneedling, particularly with the latest PROMETHEUS10 technology, offers an advanced, customisable approach to skin rejuvenation. It is an excellent solution for those looking to improve their skin without invasive surgical procedures. As a result, the skin becomes younger, smoother, and firmer!
