HOW MICRONEEDLING RF WORKS
To explain in simple terms, the Microneedling RF Pixel8 device utilizes specially insulated needles that deliver high-intensity radiofrequency energy into the deeper layers of skin where collagen is produced. This gives a uniform warming effect to the collagen layers which stimulate new collagen fibers to grow, leading to improvement to skin quality and texture, and tightens the skin. Microneedling RF rejuvenates the dermis, leading to younger, firmer and smoother skin. Typically, 3-6 treatments spaced one month apart are recommended for optimal results. Most patients can experience pinpoint bleeding during the treatment and mild redness and swelling immediately after. Depending on the area size most treatments take 15-30 minutes. This procedure is very comfortable, even for the most sensitive of patients, with topical numbing being applied for 30-45 minutes prior to starting the session making a big difference for the experience. The recovery is very short, most patients experience redness and mild swelling for 1-2 days, this is the kind of treatment that can be done on a Friday and you go to work on Monday without any issues.
