RF Skin Needling

Radiofrequency needling combines two modalities, micro-needling and radiofrequency energy to renew the skin promote new collagen & elastin and reduce the signs and appearance of ageing.

Radiofrequency needling can help to:

  • Tighten & tone the skin
  • Improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Enhance skin elasticity
  • Densify thinning skin
  • Improve the appearance of scarring
  • Reduce pore size
  • Create a more vibrant energized skin
  • Improve radiance & skins hydration levels

Skin Needling and Radio Frequency are both well established treatments in their own right and are normally performed individually to deliver their specific treatment outcomes. However with the development of technology that allows these two leading technologies to be combined the treatment outcomes are doubled if not tripled.

Skin Needling

By using Skin Needling to create a mechanical micro trauma to the skins epidermis and dermis we are triggering a natural process in the skin which is controlled wound healing: We are forcing the skin to throw up all of its wound healing substances such as collagen & elastin and to regrow connective tissue. This is a normal physiological function of the skin in response to any form of wound.

We are asking the skin to release epidermal growth factors for repair, then the skin lays down new collagen & elastin fibres to strengthen the skin and finally the new collagen & elastin matures into structural and supportive collagen resulting in firmer and more youthful skin.

Radio Frequency

Radiofrequency energy is used to generate heat / warmth in the dermis where new collagen & elastin is birthed. This heat / warmth forces the cells to produce new collagen & elastin as the cells see this heat as a trauma and sets about trying to heal it with all of these skin repair and building substances (collagen & elastin) – we call this a thermal micro trauma.

Why This Treatment is So Popular for Skin Tightening

Radiofrequency needling is designed to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin to provide a superior result. Some of the benefits of the treatment include:

  • Minimally invasive treatment
  • Minimal downtime needed
  • Visibly improves the appearance of the skin
  • Reduces skin textural imperfections
  • Smooths & firms skin
  • Is effective for acne scars, wrinkles & fine lines
  • Tightens & firms loose & sagging skin
  • Treats open pores
  • Safe for all skin types

The thermal trauma being radio frequency not only forces the skin to produce new collagen & elastin but also has the added benefit of causing your existing collagen & elastin fibres to shrink and tighten immediately.

Radiofrequency Needling is Particularly Suited to the Treatment of Olive or Darker Skin Types:

Fitzpatrick 3 to 5. Many treatments are not suitable to these skin types as they pose a risk for hyperpigmentation. With RF Needling there is a much-reduced risk of causing hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation post treatment, as the energy is delivered deep within the skin and not topically

Although with any assessment and high-tech skin treatment or program if you are not using the correct homecare as preparation and maintenance then we would suggest you are wasting your money.

At Atone Skin our motto is “homecare always comes first.” Minimum of 4 weeks prior to any high-tech treatment you need to be on Vitamin A / Vitamin C / Vitamin B + SPF + good hydrating ingredients. Without this you are compromising your results and only getting a portion of the result you could achieve with an effective homecare routine.

RF Needling for Treatment of Acne Scarring in Darker Skin Types

Micro needling with RF is ideal for treating acne scars for those with olive or darker skin types, as it does not carry a significant risk of pigmentation changes post-treatment.

The radiofrequency energy bypasses the superficial layers of the skin by being delivered to only the tips of the insulated needles. Therefore, the risk of injury to the superficial epidermis (top layers of the skin) is greatly reduced, also shortening your recovery time.

FAQ

Radiofrequency Skin Needling combines radiofrequency treatments with skin needling to deliver intensified anti-ageing outcomes in a safe and non-invasive way. This treatment uses two types of CONTROLLED traumas to the skin to elicited responses from the cells. Thermal trauma (radio frequency) & mechanical trauma (skin needling).

As we are a multi-modality clinic with so many skin treatment options a consultation with your therapist is always recommended to assess your suitability for this treatment or any other treatment that we offer.

It is best that 4 weeks prior to any high-tech skin treatment that you are following a good skin care regime at home. See above for recommendations. It is also best if you avoid the following for minimum 2 weeks prior to the treatment.

  • Sun exposure
  • Solarium
  • Fake tan to the area of treatment

We can offer numbing of the treatment area with a topical anaesthetic to minimise any discomfort during treatment. There is very minimal discomfort but is mostly felt along bony areas such as jawline and cheekbones.

Generally speaking, the treatment is comfortable in most facial areas. The skin can feel warm and tight, like a sunburn. Pinpoint bleeding may occur during treatment, this will be concluded before you leave the treatment bed. Immediately after the treatment, the skin will have mild to moderate erythema (redness of the skin) and some inflammation which is the first step in the wound healing cycle. This is very normal; in fact, we need inflammation to trigger the next stages in the wound healing process and create new collagen & elastin. The inflammation is usually resolved the following day and the skin starts to dry out slightly as the redundant cells are being purged to the surface for elimination.

You may feel a tightening and burning sensation, this may feel like sunburn or windburn. This will resolve within 24 hours post treatment.

Some people experience mild crusting post treatment, these will dry on the skin and slowly resolve, this can take up to 2 weeks for some patients. These are not to be picked or scratched off as this may encourage scaring and changes to pigment if picked.

Yes indeed you can treat areas of concern on the body with this modality. Concerns such as:

  • Lax and sagging skin on belly, arms, legs, knees and elbows can be treated
  • Stretch marks
  • Acne scarring on back, neck & chest
  • Firming and rejuvenating of hands

At Atone Skin Clinic we have created a treatment protocol that encompasses a large treatment area for every RF Skin Needling treatment. We always aim to deliver real value so your customer experience is as delightful as your skins results. Once we get you on the treatment bed for your treatment and select your sterile individual use needle cartridge we will treat full face, neck, decolletage & hands to give you an optimum treatment and not waste a perfectly good needle cartridge.

This treatment is called rf Skin Needling Super Circuit and is heavily discounted to include all of these treatment areas.

With any high-tech skin treatment, the number of treatments required will be determined by the condition of your skin and what you are trying to treat. RF Skin Needling is such a versatile treatment and can be repeated regularly without risk or concern. Initially a course of 3 to 6 is recommended to really change your skin and then maintenance treatments can be performed to maintain your new great result.

After your first treatment where we have created lovely floaty new collagen & elastin it takes some weeks for this to turn into structural collagen which acts as scaffolding to your skin. The benefits of this treatment continue to build and peak at approx. the 90-day mark.

However, immediately after the treatment you will see lift, tone, and a new vitality to your skin. Your skin will be more hydrated and balanced once the first 5 days have past where the redundant cells are purged to the surface for elimination. With each passing week your skin will look improved, firmer and more rejuvenated (considering you are using good skincare too, I might add…) but the peak of your results will be at the 90 days mark approx..

At Atone Skin Clinic we package up these treatments with other skin enhancing and complementary modalities like LED, Infusion, Enzymes, Microdermabrasion, Peels & deeply hydrating treatments to give the skin everything it needs at each stage of its healing to optimise the results. Our packages are designed to step the skin through the wound healing stages and support it at every process. Plus our packages are highly value added with great inclusions, freebies and discounts built in so your client experience is highly rewarding.

The effect of the treatment can last several years, depending on each person’s individual metabolic process & lifestyle choices which directly affects your collagens regenerative and remodelling abilities.

This treatment however has great output for little downtime and relative cost and is considered a highly desirable treatment for these reasons.
