Radiofrequency Microneedle, otherwise known as RFM, is a new and exciting treatment at The Lynton Clinic that can safely and effectively address a host of skin concerns such as, skin laxity, large pores, wrinkles, creases, and fine lines, sun damage, acne scarring plus more. This innovative procedure takes skin rejuvenation with Microneedling to the next level. It is perfect for you if you are looking for a safe anti-ageing, skin tightening and lifting treatment with virtually no downtime – we love it!
Is Radiofrequency Microneedling Technology Safe?
Our newest Radiofrequency Microneedling treatment delivered with Focus Dual, is a great option if you are looking to reduce wrinkles, fine lines, crepey skin, pore size, acne scars, or the overall appearance of your skin, whilst being able to return to your day-to-day activities within 1 day!
Radiofrequency (RF) skin rejuvenation is enhanced using RF Microneedle technology and it can offer similar results to ablative laser procedures, but with significantly less discomfort and downtime. Following a treatment, your skin is typically red for the first day after treatment, but the redness is typically mild and much less than is often seen with laser procedures.
With Focus Dual, we can achieve a depth control that delivers energy directly into your skin without loss of energy, so it can be used with greater safety to treat certain problems that would otherwise require an aggressive laser or peel resurfacing procedure. (Dermatology Times, April 2020).
Stay Safe with SPF
Fractional RF Microneedling is non-surgical and minimally invasive, which virtually eliminates downtime following the procedure. Though skin may seem sensitive and appear slightly flushed, most patients are able to return to their normal activities immediately after a treatment session. However, it is important to keep your skin SPF protected and out of direct sunlight.
Radiofrequency Microneedling is Safe on ALL Skin Types
RFM treatment is suitable for all skin types and tones, with little risk of burning, scarring, or pigmentation issues. Unlike with lasers, Microneedling with Radiofrequency delivers energy in a way that is not chromophore dependent. Therefore, it is safe to use in patients with darker skin types (Dermatology Times, April 2020).
Non-Insulated Needles Deliver a Safe Treatment
The Focus Dual uses non-insulated microneedles, creating a safer treatment with less bleeding and discomfort versus other devices. Non-insulated needles are believed to reduce pinpoint bleeding and the risk of infection post-treatment, as small capillaries in the upper layers of skin are sealed in this heating process.
All in all, we think Radiofrequency Microneedling technology is a safe and effective. Get in touch to start reaping the benefits of both Microneedling and Radiofrequency energy, all in one treatment and give your skin back its SNAP!
