RF Medical Skin Needling, also referred to as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) and Micro-Needling is aimed at stimulating the body’s own collagen production to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, stretch marks, skin laxity and scarring such as that caused by acne or chicken pox. It has also been successfully applied to the indication of hair restoration in cases of alopecia. There are a number of different devices, such as manual dermarollers. The treatment introduces a series of fine, sharp needles into the skin. The needles are attached to a single use, sterile roller which is moved over the surface of the skin to create many microscopic channels or to a cartridge of needles arranged in a circle at the end of an automated device . This damage encourages the body to produce new collagen and elastin which generate new skin cells to repair itself; the skin becomes thicker, plumper and more youthful. Costs for medical skin needling treatments depend on the area(s) being treated, what products are used and the type of device being used.

TRADITIONAL MICRONEEDLING
In traditional microneedling a specialized device is rolled over the skin to create controlled micro injuries in the form of tiny microscopic punctures along the skin. These minor skin injuries stimulate the skin’s natural healing process resulting in the production of skin firming proteins like elastin and collagen. Newly developed growth factors work to thicken the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, acne scarring, sun damage, and stretch marks. Punctures from microneedling can also act as channels for enhanced delivery of topical skin care treatments like hyaluronic acid, live stem cells and more. OUR FAVORITE IS LIVE STEM CELLS!
RF MICRONEEDLING – faster!
With adding radio frequency (RF) energy to the traditional microneedling technique, it provides further stimulation to the creation of growth factors. RF microneedling uses specialized “energized” needles to create micro-punctures along the skin and deliver radiofrequency energy through these punctures simultaneously. The addition of radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis amplifies the production of skin improving proteins and enzymes like collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid than traditional microneedling alone. Added RF energy also heats underlayers of the skin which further enhances skin tightening.
IS RF MICRONEEDLING REALLY SUPERIOR?
The latest in this industry has been RF microneedling using which is radio frequency microneeding which are receiving great reviews! The various RF devices can be used to treat acne scarring, wrinkles, sun damage, irregular skin texture, stretch marks, and skin laxity in the neck.
RF Microneedling Smooths Wrinkles
Boosting collagen levels is always beneficial for reducing wrinkles. While traditional microneedling provides a boost, RF microneedling amplifies the process. Heat created by the added RF energy also works to constrict underlying skin layers, helping to further smooth out even the most severe lines and wrinkles.
RF Microneedling Addresses Deeper Skin Layers
Compared to regular microneedling, RF microneedling is able to address deeper layers of the skin without creating significant damage to the top layers of the skin. This is due to the RF energy being delivered past the tip of each needle to deep layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin.
RF Microneedling is Better for Acne Scars
All scars, including acne scars, are tough patches of thick and damaged skin. RF Microneedling is more able than traditional microneedling in addressing scars as the added RF energy breaks up scar matter better than just needle punctures alone. Providers can also focus higher levels of RF energy on scarred skin to maximize results.
RF Microneedling is More Customizable
RF microneedling treatments are extremely customizable as both needle depth and RF energy intensity can be manipulated to meet the unique needs of each patient. RF microneedling can run from being a minor skin enhancing treatment to a dramatic (and deep) skin changing procedure.
Traditional Devices:
M-pen pro
The M-pen pro is a precise, non-ablative treatment method for targeting lines and scarring using a medical technique called subscision. The controlled trauma caused initiates a healing reaction and the formation of new collagen to minimize the imperfection.
Secret ™
Secret Infra red micro needling™ has the claim of being the original device that started the revolution in automated pen-like devices in the medical skin-needling world. It is used for a treatment referred to as medical skin needling, collagen induction therapy, percutaneous collagen induction, micro-needling or simply electronic dermarolling.
Réjuvapen
Réjuvapen is used to treat the signs of aging, scarring, burns, and uneven skin tone by activating cell regeneration and enhancing the absorption of active serums and topical agents through collagen induction therapy or medical skin needling.
