RF microneedling treatment in Hertfordshire

The FRAX device has cartridges with tiny needles that create controlled micro injuries in the skin. This triggers the body’s natural response to heal. Simultaneously, radiofrequency energy boosts collagen and elastin. This rejuvenates the skin from within over time.

Benefits of RF microneedling

• Enhances skin tone and texture
• This treatment is non surgical and requires minimal downtime, improves your skin without the need for invasive procedures.

 

What to expect during your treatment?

It takes around 45 minutes up to an hour. After we cleanse the skin, a numbing cream is applied for a maximum comfort.

We insert a sterile single use cartridge into the handpiece, and touch your skin with the cartridge. The gold plated very tiny needles penetrate the skin releasing the radiofrequency to a set up depth and weave length. Most people experience a mild warming sensation that can be compared to a sunburn.

 

After your treatment

After the treatment, you will notice slight redness or swelling, similar to a mild sunburn. This usually subsides within 24 – 48 hours. Over the next weeks and months your skin will continue to improve as it produces collagen. Multiple sessions are recommended to show results becoming more noticeable after each treatment.

 

Is RF microneedling painful?

It depends on individual pain tolerance, but the procedure is quite comfortable as we apply an anaesthetic cream prior to the treatment.

 

How often should you get the treatment?

The number of RF microneedling treatments you need is not a one-size-fits-all answer. It depends on your age, the current condition of your skin, if you are having this treatment as an anti aging prevention, the specific skin concern and its severity. We will assess your needs and create a personalised treatment plan just for you.

It is recommended to have a minimum of three to four RF microneedling treatments, spaced one month apart.

After the initial course, to maintain the results, a single booster recommended once every 3 – 4 months.

Does it work on all skin types?

RF microneedling is safe for all skin types.

 

How long is the recovery?

You can return to your normal activities the same day, but you won’t be able to wear makeup. You will experience some skin redness that will resolve within a day or two.

 

Can it be used on any parts of the body?

Yes, it can be used on the areas like the neck, décolletage, hands, and stomach, flanks and thighs. It helps with skin tightening and scar reduction on almost anywhere on the body.

 

Does it stimulate collagen production?

RF microneedling stimulates collagen and elastin production at various levels, resulting in better and longer-lasting skin improvement when compared to microneedling or radiofrequency on its own.

 

Realistic results

We communicate openly with our clients, and make sure that realistic expectations are set for every treatment. It’s important to understand that non surgical treatments, while very effective, have their limitations.

The non surgical treatments do not produce results equivalent to a facelift or blepharoplasty surgery. These surgical procedures involve more extensive modifications to facial structure.

The RF needling can rejuvenate and lift the skin and improve its texture, while the surgery removes the skin excess and modifies underlying facial structures.

 

RF microneedling for your stomach

After weight loss, or a surgery, many people face the challenge of looser skin. RF microneedling is an effective treatment that stimulates the skin and improves its tone. It’s an ideal treatment to address loose skin, not only on the stomach but also on any other part of the body that requires firming and toning. It stimulates collagen production and encourages skin rejuvenation. The best approach is to start the treatment at the same time as the skin starts to become loose, at the beginning of the weightloss journey, and not wait until the last moment.

Different names, same treatment – fractional RF and RF microneedling refer to the same treatment. Depending on where you are and who you speak to, you may hear it called by different names: fractional radiofrequency, radiofrequency microneedling or needling. It’s also called by brand names such as Morpheus8, Secret RF or FRAX.

What makes this treatment is the combination of two treatments in one, radiofrequency waves and micro-needling.
