Non-invasive treatments have been the norm in aesthetic treatments for a long time, but they are still evolving. They are always looking for ways to improve their efficacy and practicality. An example of the recent development of aesthetic treatment is microneedling, and you can now have enhanced microneedling through RF Microneedling.
Microneedling is one of the most accessible aesthetic treatments you can get, and it has been gaining popularity in the last few years. It is a minimally invasive procedure, so you won’t have to subject yourself to the knife. It’s not risky, and on top of that, it’s a quick in-and-out procedure.
Developing Microneedling To The Next Step
Although not as effective as laser resurfacing or chemical peels in dealing with aging, its efficacy is quite fair, considering its modest price. But if you want something that has more oompf, then microneedling isn’t for you.
But wait, just yet, haven’t you heard of Secret RF microneedling? It’s the next step in innovation from the typical microneedling treatment. Although it’s an improvement, there are no compromises made to its non-invasive features, and it’s still the microneedling you love—with more power.
Does the sound of a more effective microneedling treatment excite you? Well, it better be! However, if you don’t know much about it, it’s understandable that you won’t be as enthusiastic about it.
To help you better understand what you are getting yourself into, it’s only fair that we inform you what this treatment is all about. Here are 5 essential things you should know about Secret RF microneedling.
1.) What Is Secret RF Microneedling?
Secret RF Microneedling is an innovative beauty procedure that uses radiofrequency energy together with microneedling. It is a treatment that can treat acne scars, wrinkles, and other skin concerns. Secret RF Microneedling has been proven effective in reducing the appearance of acne scars and wrinkles by up to 50%.
Stil Like Microneedling
Secret RF Microneedling is a form of microneedling that uses the same principles as regular microneedling. The difference is that this process uses radiofrequency waves to encourage more production of the body’s healing processes.
There will still be multiple needles that will pierce the skin, and you can see the needles at the tip of the pen-like device. The needles are usually 0.25mm in diameter and 1mm long. The point of microneedling is to make small micro-injuries on your skin to stimulate your body’s healing processes.
What Does The Radiofrequency Do?
The pen-like RF microneedling device will release radiowaves while the needles pierce the skin. We create more damage to the skin’s deeper layers by doing so, enhancing the effects of regular microneedling.
The more we damage the skin, the more the body will engage its healing processes, paving the way for enhanced skin.
2.) Why Does Secret RF Microneedling Have To Damage The Skin?
For Secret RF microneedling to work, or any microneedling for the matter, they have to cause some damage to the skin, but why is that?
To start your body’s healing processes, you need to show the body that some damages need fixing. Otherwise, the healing processes will sit tight while the skin suffers the effects of aging and other unwanted skin conditions.
We need to enhance the old skin framework with a new and improved skin framework.
Minimal And Controlled Damage
Secret RF microneedling doesn’t really cause that much damage. These damages are minimal and are controlled to the finest of details. You’ll only notice these damages when you see redness—that’s about it.
It’s not even accurate to call them damages, but instead, micro-injuries. They are so minimal that you will barely feel any pain and discomfort.
If you are concerned about the micro-injuries, don’t be. The FDA’s guidelines state that RF Microneedling should not be used on areas with broken or open sores or areas with signs of infection such as redness, swelling, or tenderness. Your provider will also minimize pain and discomfort by using low-energy settings and adjusting the needle depth according to your skin type.
3.) How Micro-Injuries Help You
Now that we have micro-injuries all over the treated areas. The body can directly jump-start the body’s healing processes.
These micro-injuries are small enough that we are not replacing the entire skin but instead reinforcing them. If we create any more damage, the current skin will only experience scars, and it can’t fully recover the lost skin. So you’ll only have an uneven skin texture all over the place, with spots too.
Create as many micro-injuries as possible, but not too much that the skin can’t fully recover.
How Your Body’s Healing Processes Work
The micro-injuries caused by the aesthetic treatments cause your fibroblast cells to react and deal with them.
Fibroblasts are the cells that build up the connective tissues and make up the extracellular matrix in our body. They are responsible for supporting and protecting organs and providing structural support to other cells.
Fibroblasts are also involved in wound healing, scarring, and tissue repair. They play a crucial role in keeping our body healthy by producing collagen, elastin, and proteoglycan.
4.) How Secret RF Microneedling Helps You
Fibroblast cells restore the much-needed collagen into your skin’s framework.
Collagen is a protein that gives your skin elasticity and strength. It also keeps your skin hydrated and plump. When you age, the collagen in your body starts to break down faster than it can be replaced by new collagen, which causes wrinkles, dryness, and other unwanted skin conditions.
Benefits Of Secret RF Mirconeedling
Here is a quick list of what you can benefit from the treatment:
- Reduced Acne Scars
- Skin Rejuvenation
- Reduced Hyperpigmentation
- Anti-Aging
5.) When To Expect Results?
The answer depends on your skin type and condition. Depending on how severe your skin condition is, it can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months to see results.
Also, the treatments will take more than one session, depending on what treatment you want to have. If you have moderate scars or aging, you may only need four sessions. But if it’s a more severe case, you may need five or more sessions.
The sessions are spaced between 3 to 8 weeks.
