Dermaforce RF Microneedling
Dermaforce RF Microneedling
Radiofrequency, or RF, is a type of energy derived from radio waves and can be used both for skin resurfacing and for skin tightening. It delivers heat into the deep layers of the skin, causing the collagen structures to tighten and produce new collagen.
Microneedling is the process of applying a roller or pen-type device tipped with rows of tiny needles to the skin in order to create thousands of holes in the epidermis to increase the efficacy of skincare products and to stimulate growth factors and collagen production within the skin. Microneedling’s wound healing response also helps address surface skin and textural problems such as acne scars, large pores, stretch marks and wrinkles.
RF microneedling delivers radiofrequency energy into the skin through microneedles of varying lengths, which have been insulated, so that the RF energy emerges just at their tips.
Both radiofrequency and microneedling do very similar things, namely boosting collagen and elastin production in the skin. Radiofrequency stimulates our body’s cellular responses using heat, which helps tighten existing elastin and collagen at the same time as boosting new collagen. Microneedling creates a controlled injury, which stimulates the body’s wound healing response, once again kick-starting fibroblast activity, resulting in tightening and boosting of new and existing collagen and elastin.
Dermaforce needles are insulated, except for their tips, so that the radiofrequency energy dispensed is delivered directly to the dermis, rather than dispersed into the rest of the skin that the needles are passing through.
Using needles to create micro-channels of damage enables the skin to heal itself faster than you would expect, because between each of the channels of damage is a portion of untreated, undamaged skin. So the skin isn’t trying to heal the whole of itself at once.
What does a RF Microneedling treatment involve?
By combining two already effective technologies into one, it gives a double whammy when it comes to boosting collagen and elastin and is suitable for all skin types, an additional bonus.
The radiofrequency energy, has a kind of shrink-wrapping effect on the collagen deep in the skin, so the skin will regenerate from the inside. At the same time, you’ve also got the knock-on effect of the microneedling, which is creating tiny wounds in the skin so, as those heal, you get an extra degree of collagen contraction and skin regeneration.
