RADIO FREQUENCY MICRONEEDLING

Radio frequency microneedling is a revolutionary skin treatment that offers numerous benefits for individuals looking to improve the overall quality of their skin. One of the key benefits of this procedure is its ability to stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a protein that is essential for maintaining the elasticity and firmness of the skin. As we age, our body's collagen production naturally decreases, leading to the formation of wrinkles and sagging skin. By using radio frequency microneedling, we can effectively stimulate collagen production, resulting in smoother, tighter skin. This is achieved by creating micro-injuries in the skin using tiny needles, allowing for the targeted delivery of radio frequency energy deep into the dermis. The heat from the radio frequency energy activates the body's natural healing response, which includes the production of new collagen fibres. Over time, these new collagen fibres replace the damaged ones, leading to improved skin texture and tone.

HOW DOES RADIO FREQUENCY MICRONEEDLING WORK?

The radio frequency energy heats the underlying layers of skin, causing constriction and tightening of the skin, as well as the stimulation of collagen and elastin production.

As the radio frequency energy is delivered so deeply, it can produce faster results that are more dramatic than normal microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) treatments. This minimally invasive treatment provides results that can include improved texture and firmness, as well as skin resurfacing.

WHICH RADIO FREQUENCY MICRONEEDLING MACHINE DO YOU USE?

At the Aesthetics by Abby clinic, I use the Derma RF Pro machine to deliver Radio Frequency (RF) Microneedling treatments. This advanced treatment combines microneedling with Radio Frequency technology to effectively treat a large number of cosmetic concerns, with excellent results. The machine uses gold-plated needles to gently penetrate the skin and trigger the body to create new collagen and elastin, while also delivering radio frequency deep into the dermal layers of the skin.

CAN I TARGET SPECIFIC AREAS OF MY FACE?

I usually recommend a full-face treatment rather than treating specific facial areas. However, during your treatment I can focus more on specific areas if they need more improvement. These areas may be: crows feet, neck and décolletage, jowls and jawline, large pores, and scarring.
