Microneedling (RF)

64A4DC04 17B9 4CEA AABF 57DE0D465DF8

Microneedling is a time-tested cosmetic treatment that is rapidly gaining more attention in the skincare world. Potenza Microneedling involves using a special device to create tiny punctures in the skin, which can improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. It is one of the most innovative, advanced anti-aging and texture-correcting treatments to date. Potenza Microneedling delivers thermal energy to deeper tissue, causing tissue contraction. The energy/heat also triggers the body to produce collagen and elastin, resulting in skin tightening through soft-tissue coagulation.

Although the service is generally safe, you should know a few things before you book your first appointment.

 

What Is PotenzaTM RF Microneedling?

Potenza RF microneedling is an FDA-cleared treatment for the face and body. It uses radio frequency waves to stimulate the growth of new collagen and elastin fibers in the skin. Using this treatment, you can effectively improve fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and more. As well as enhancing the skin's texture and tone, it can help tighten loose skin.

What Skin Concerns Can Potenza Address?

You can customize the Potenza microneedling procedure to meet your needs. With only a few treatments, you can tighten and firm your skin, minimize the signs of aging, and reduce blemishes.

Microneedling can address the following concerns:

  • Acne
  • Dark spots
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Scars
  • Blemishes
  • Large pores
  • Sun damage
  • Rough or dull skin
  • Stretch marks
  • Enlarged pores
  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
  • Skin laxity
  • Oily skin
  • Skin irregularities
  • Dark spots and melasma

It is possible to address a wide range of skin concerns with the Potenza microneedling treatment, both on the face and the body, using innovative and advanced technology. Talk to your provider to see if this treatment is right for you.

What Happens During a Potenza Treatment?

There are many other microneedling treatments on the market that use different technologies, devices, and techniques, each ranging in expectations. Potenza RF microneedling is a minimally-invasive skin service that is usually well-tolerated by patients. This treatment can occur in a doctor's office or a medical spa. The duration of treatments may vary, but they typically last 45 minutes or less.

You can expect your microneedling treatment to be fairly simple. Your provider will start by applying numbing cream to the surface of your skin to keep it comfortable during the treatment. A handheld device will be passed over your skin to treat concerns such as deep wrinkles and acne scarring. 

Our team uses the Potenza device, which has ultrafine needles and RF energy, to penetrate the area of concern and target the deep layers of the skin. You may return to normal activities following your session, but you should use gentle products and avoid unprotected sun exposure for the full week after a session.

How Many Potenza Treatments Will I Need?

The number of Potenza treatments you will need will depend on many factors, including the severity of your condition, your age, your skin type, and your response to treatment. Most people will need between 3 and 6 treatments to see significant results. Maintenance may be recommended over time to promote long-term results and benefits as you continue to age and exposure your skin to the sun and environmental factors.

What Can I Expect From the Results?

After attending the first appointment, most people will start to notice their skin is healthier and more evenly toned. Over the next few weeks, as collagen is produced in the deepest layers of the skin, these results will continue to improve. Additional treatments will lead to further improvement and more visible results.
