We now offer a more advanced microneedling treatment with our new Virtue Radio Frequency (RF) machine. Virtue Radiofrequency Microneedling is a skincare treatment that is growing in popularity for the many ways in which it can benefit the skin. It is especially helpful for those who are looking to treat acne scars, improve skin texture, reduce hyperpigmentation, and boost collagen production. Many of us have tried a variety of skin care products and regimens, but the results don’t seem to be what we expect.

​

The reason for this can be that the ingredients we have added to our skin care products are not being absorbed by our skin. For this, microneedling comes as the best alternative. This treatment is also beneficial to those who have oily or acne-prone skin. It is also a great treatment to prevent aging. Virtue Radiofrequency Microneedling stimulates collagen production and helps your skin look younger.

​

Combine RF and microneedling and you get more dramatic and faster results.

​

(Just a quick word about the home dermal rollers:  not a bad treatment but mostly an exfoliator as it doesn’t go deep enough to stimulate collagenesis, you must also clean them well as bacteria can accumulate.)

WHY DO I NEED RADIO FREQUENCY MICRONEEDLING?

Combination therapies allow for optimal results.

​

Let’s think of the skin like a cake.  A beautiful cake consists of the cake, icing, and decorations. These components could be eaten individually but they are better together. The cake tastes better and looks better when they are all present. 

​

Skin care is much like a beautiful cake. Every layer of the skin must be addressed for optimal results. The cake is the dermal layer where collagenesis is stimulated and provides strength to the foundation. The icing is the epidermal layer that is responsible for skin tone and strength. The decorations are the topicals that further influence tone and protect. Optimal quantities and delicate interactions of these components are necessary to maintain normal physiologic properties of the skin.

 

WHAT IS RF MICRONEEDLING?

Radio Frequency (RF) microneedling devices use specially insulated needles that deliver high-intensity radio frequency energy (heat) into the deep layers of the dermis, triggering constriction and enhancing skin tightening while also encouraging collagen growth which helps reduce the appearance of the signs of aging.

​

The penetration of the microneedles leads to a release of growth factors and triggers the wound healing cascade, encouraging collagen production.  The needles also help mechanically break down scar tissue, another great treatment for acne scarring.

​

The result is a treatment that delivers more dramatic and faster results by tightening skin and reducing fine lines and wrinkles all at the same time.

​
