Using insulated microneedles, the skin is penetrated multiple times in the target area to reach the dermis layer of skin. The microneedles are then used to deliver high tensioned radiofrequency pulses into the targeted tissue to stimulate the skin and boost the long-term production of elastin and collagen fibers for firmer, healthier-looking skin.
As Fractional Radio Frequency leaves the epidermis intact, there is less risk of pigmentation and scarring in comparison to more invasive methods.
Visibly firmer skin will be noticeable immediately after the treatment, however, for optimum results, a series of 3-6 sessions each 4 weeks apart is recommended. Each session will work to firm the skin, boost its elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
While you may experience some redness for an hour following the treatment, zero downtime is required and you may resume normal activity immediately should you wish.
You can expect to notice results immediately following the treatment, with optimum results following a course of 3 – 6 sessions.
The treatment may cause some discomfort, but a topical anesthetic cream will be applied beforehand to ensure that the session is as comfortable as possible.
Can I do this treatment if I’ve had wrinkle injections or fillers?
It is completely safe to have Fractional Radio Frequency if you’ve had wrinkle injections or fillers done previously. However, a minimum gap of two weeks is recommended between any treatments. Please note that the use of radio frequency may reduce the longevity of your fillers or wrinkle injections.
