What is RF Microneedling?
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that combines thermal energy with microneedling to facilitate skin toning treatments to reduce wrinkles, sagging skin, scars, lesions, pigmented spots, etc. The microneedles trigger your skin’s natural healing response while the thermal energy triggers collagen production, enhancing your skin’s overall volume, hydration, and texture.
How does Virtue RF Microneedling work?
Microneedling is a procedure that creates micro-injuries on your skin’s surface to trigger its natural healing response. The addition of radiofrequency energy facilitates collagen production, which strengthens your skin, increases its thickness, adds volume, and fills the wrinkles and fine lines to provide a taut appearance.
During the Virtue RF Microneedling procedure, the doctors clean your skin’s surface, apply topical anesthesia, and then place the microneedle handsets over your skin, creating micro-punctures. As the microneedles penetrate your skin’s surface, they also deliver radiofrequency energy into your dermis. The thermal energy from the device triggers collagen formation and tightens your skin tissues. The procedure also releases growth factors and heals scar tissues.
What happens during the Virtue RF Microneedling procedure?
During the Virtue RF Microneedling procedure, the doctor will clean your skin and apply a topical anesthetic cream. The Virtue RF microneedling handset will be rolled over the targeted parts of your skin’s surface. As the microneedles puncture your skin’s surface, they also deliver the appropriate amount of thermal energy. The procedure is repeated in all the targeted regions.
What happens after the Virtue RF Microneedling procedure?
Your skin may appear red, dry, and flaky for approximately one week after the treatment. You can resume your daily activities after 24 hours, but your skin may remain dry and flaky for a while. The pigmented lesions on your skin’s surface will darken and start coming off after a few days. Your skin’s appearance will improve as it continues healing itself, and you’ll see the best results after a few weeks. You’ll continue seeing improvements for several weeks or months due to collagen production. The results may last for up to 5 years, but you may need maintenance treatments occasionally.
