Most of your skin’s structure, along with many other structural components of your body, is made of collagen. This important protein helps your skin maintain its firmness and even texture, but as you age, your skin produces less of it. As a result, skin laxity is one of the most common signs of aging. Radiofrequency microneedling lifts and tightens your skin without surgery for a smoother, more youthful look.
What is Radiofrequency Microneedling?
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is a widely used skin rejuvenation treatment that stimulates collagen production and speeds up skin cell turnover. It works by creating tiny channels in the skin that reach the dermal layer, where the needles emit radiofrequency energy. This energy creates heat that increases the healing response and makes this method more effective. At Winter Park Plastic Surgery and Laser Center, we offer the Genius™ RF microneedling system, utilizing the most advanced technology available.
5 Reasons Why Radiofrequency Microneedling is the Gold Standard for Skin Tightening
Several factors make Genius™ RF microneedling our go-to skin tightening treatment. Along with improving your skin’s lift and firmness, this treatment also provides a number of other benefits.
Radiofrequency Microneedling Maximizes New Collagen Development
While traditional microneedling is effective for producing collagen, the boost from the radiofrequency energy gives radiofrequency microneedling the ability to boost collagen-producing fibroblasts into a higher gear for even better results and healthier, firmer skin.
Radiofrequency Microneedling Smoothes Lines and Wrinkles
The loss of underlying collagen can create fine lines and wrinkles, especially in areas of skin laxity or repetitive motion. The lift and skin tightening from RF microneedling dramatically reduce these signs of aging, giving you a refreshed, youthful look.
Radiofrequency Microneedling Treats Other Signs of Aging
Individuals concerned with skin tightening often have concerns about other signs of aging, such as sun damage, age spots, or uneven texture. RF microneedling gives your skin an even texture and tone as well as a more youthful glow. It can also treat concerns such as acne scars and loss of definition along the jawline.
Radiofrequency Microneedling Has Little to No Downtime
Because Genius™ RF microneedling is customizable, your treatment can be gentler or more intensive, affecting the effects after treatment. Most people will notice redness that may fade within a few hours or last a day or two. No downtime is required, although you should use caution while applying any potentially irritating skin products after treatment.
Radiofrequency Microneedling is Safe for Almost Anyone
While many types of light-based treatments are not recommended for darker skin tones, radiofrequency microneedling is safe for almost anyone. Good candidates should have realistic expectations and no major health problems. Almost anyone’s skin can benefit from new collagen and rejuvenated skin.
