Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling combines traditional microneedling with advanced radiofrequency technology to offer a deeper, more effective treatment for skin rejuvenation.
RF microneedling enhances skin firmness, reduces wrinkles, and improves overall texture, by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. At RL&A, we offer clients lasting improvements for a radiant complexion with the cutting-edge Potenza device that delivers results beyond the surface with its unique Fusion Tip ensuring “beyond the surface” penetration of collagen-supporting products.
Potenza Microneedling plus Fusion Tip = properly positioned RF Microneedling + collagen supporting product where it needs to be. Research has shown that without the Fusion Tip it is not possible to infuse collagen-supporting product into the proper layer of the dermis.
RF microneedling combines the precision of ultra-fine needles with the energy of radiofrequency (RF) to deliver transformative skin improvements.
The procedure begins with a specialized RF microneedling device, which creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin while delivering RF energy to deeper layers. This dual-action approach triggers the body’s natural healing process, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin—proteins essential for maintaining skin’s structure, elasticity, and firmness, targeting key skin concerns. The treatment stands out as a minimally invasive yet highly effective option for comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
RF energy works by delivering heat deep into the dermis, triggering a powerful healing response. The microscopic injuries caused by the needles are repaired as new collagen fibers form, making the skin firmer and more elastic. This level of stimulation reaches deeper than surface-level treatments, ensuring long-lasting and more pronounced results. Unlike traditional microneedling, which focuses on surface concerns, Potenza RF microneedling rejuvenates skin from within, making it an exceptional solution for lasting skin health.
Research published in the *Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology* claims that RF microneedling can boost collagen production up to 400% after four treatments spaced one month apart.
RF microneedling has been extensively researched for its ability to improve acne scars. The creation of controlled micro-injuries in the skin while delivering radiofrequency energy to deeper layers promotes the remodeling of scar tissue, smoothing uneven skin and reducing the appearance of atrophic acne scars.
A study published in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology evaluated the impact of non-insulated fractional microneedle RF treatment on atrophic acne scars. The results showed that:
RF microneedling also demonstrates remarkable results in overall skin rejuvenation. The heat generated by RF energy triggers a natural healing response in the dermis, which strengthens the skin’s structure, smooths fine lines, and improves overall texture and firmness.
Research published by *Advances in Cosmetic Surgery* shows that RF microneedling leads to improvements in skin texture, wrinkles, and laxity:
RF microneedling works by breaking down damaged connective tissues in stretch marks while simultaneously stimulating collagen and elastin production. This helps reduce the visibility of stretch marks by improving their texture, color, and overall appearance.
A clinical study evaluated the impact of multiple microneedling sessions on stretch marks, showing significant improvement in texture, pigmentation, and a decrease in both the length and width of the marks.
The results demonstrated that:
Additionally, the study highlighted a statistically significant difference before and after treatment (p < 0.05), concluding that microneedling is a safe and effective option for addressing stretch marks.
RF microneedling, is also a proven solution for tightening the skin around pores, making them appear smaller by boosting collagen and elastin production.
A study published in Lasers in Medical Science evaluated the effectiveness of a unipolar RF device combined with vacuum suction for treating enlarged facial pores.
The results demonstrated:
These findings highlight the ability of RF microneedling to tighten pores by stimulating collagen production and promoting dermal remodeling, leaving the skin looking refined and rejuvenated.
RF microneedling is uniquely designed to be effective and safe for all skin types, including darker skin tones, which are more prone to hyperpigmentation with other treatments. The controlled delivery of RF energy minimizes surface damage while focusing on deeper layers, reducing the risk of complications. This makes it a trusted option for clients seeking rejuvenation without the concerns of adverse effects commonly associated with certain cosmetic procedures.
At RL&A we use the advanced Potenza system, featuring the cutting-edge “Fusion Tip”. Unlike regular microneedles, the Fusion Tip is designed to maximize treatment outcomes with a dual-air chamber that enhances the penetration of high-quality, therapeutic ingredients into the skin’s micro-channels, created during the microneedling process.
A study conducted by Cynosure demonstrated that the Fusion Tip increases product absorption by up to 67%, compared to traditional insulated tips. Delivering RF energy while simultaneously pushing active ingredients deeper into the skin layers results in a more targeted and effective treatment, providing long-lasting benefits such as improved hydration, elasticity, and rejuvenation.
Potenza takes RF microneedling’s reputation for being safe for all skin types a step further with customizable settings that allow precise adjustments tailored to individual needs. Its advanced technology ensures consistent results while prioritizing safety, making it the ideal choice for clients seeking effective rejuvenation without the risks associated with more invasive procedures.
