Skin Tightening & Rejuvenation
Renew MedSpa offers the latest in RF Microneedling with our Prolift RFM (radiofrequency fractional microneedling) service. This treatment addresses skin concerns for both face and body, combining the advantages of microneedling and RF to help the skin remodel and repair itself from within. Common treatment benefits include skin tightening and lifting, fine line and wrinkle reduction, improved skin texture and tone, and a reduction in scarring and stretch marks. Prolift RFM treatments rejuvenates existing collagen and stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin for noticeably firmer, smoother, and brighter skin.
What it treats
The treatment
The skin is numbed prior to treatment with a prescription-strength numbing cream. After numbing, a device with tiny needles stamp the skin, creating micro-injuries and delivering heat using RF energy. The RF energy heats the underlying layers of skin, causing constriction and tightening of the skin, as well as the stimulation of collagen and elastin production. Because the RF energy is delivered so deeply, it can produce faster results that are more dramatic compared to traditional microneedling. Treatments are well-tolerated with minimal discomfort. Slight redness, swelling, and pinpoint bruising may be noticed following treatment, which may last 1-3 days. A sunburn-like sensation may also be present for 12-48 hrs.
How it works
RF microneedling combines the benefits of microneedling with radio frequency thermal energy, taking skin rejuvenation to the next level.
How many treatments are needed?
A series of 3 treatments is recommended for best results. More treatments may be needed if you have severe conditions. Results will continue to be seen in the months following your series. Annual or biannual maintenance treatments are recommended after the series of 3.
Downtime
The average down time for this treatment is pink skin for about 2-24 hours post treatment. You can go back to your daily routine immediately after treatment, and most people won’t be able to tell you had anything done 24 hours after treatment.
