Microneedling with radiofrequency at the skin clinic Surrey
Microneedling has been used in skin treatments for many years. Traditionally, microneedling is carried out as a stand-alone treatment, but here at Skin Studio UK, we are pleased to present microneedling with radiofrequency, also known as microneedling RF, which involves infusing heat into the skin.
We will perform a skin assessment at our skin clinic surrey to decide whether or not microneedling RF is suitable for you and help us put together a treatment plan. Different types of skin and different sections of the skin require different intensities of radiofrequency, and with our knowledge and expertise, we can make sure that your treatment plan is the right solution for promoting better skin health.
Difference between microneedling and microneedling RF
The difference between traditional microneedling and microneedling RF at our skin clinic Surrey is that the needles release heat, creating a greater injury than microneedling alone. Microneedling is also referred to as collagen induction therapy, and it is important to note that greater injury will promote greater collagen production. This means microneedling RF is more effective than microneedling alone when it comes to addressing your skin concerns and improving the appearance of your skin. However, this also means that microneedling RF is more intensive than microneedling alone; therefore, it is more expensive but has little or no recovery period. As it is more intense, microneedling RF has a greater effect on patients who are looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles more effectively. The intensity of the radiofrequency will depend on what you want from the treatment. Some people look for a maintenance treatment to revitalise their skin or prevent the signs of ageing, while others prefer anti-ageing treatment and want to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
A tailored treatment plan
You will be given a topical anaesthetic that will numb your skin and ease the process. If you are looking for maintenance treatment, we can use a minimum level of radio frequency and shallow needles to stimulate collagen in the skin. If you are affected by fine lines and wrinkles, we can enhance the treatment by increasing the intensity of the radiofrequency as well as the depth of the needles. If you are affected by deep lines and wrinkles, then microneedling RF may not be the right treatment for you since it is more suited to those who are looking for preventive work with little or no downtime. Microneedling RF helps maintain good skin health and slows down the signs of ageing. Speak to us at our skin clinic Surrey today.
If you have had an outbreak of acne or your skin is feeling sensitive after exposure to the sun, we may suggest that you wait before undergoing microneedling. Once you are ready, a treatment plan will be put in place for you. We will decide what depth of needles to use and a suitable frequency of radiation, and we can help you decide whether you want to pursue microneedling as a stand-alone treatment or opt for a combined treatment plan.
