What Is Microneedling?
Microneedling (also known as skin needling or collagen induction therapy) is a type of treatment that uses small needles to cause tiny punctures in the skin. These small contact points encourage the body to create a wound healing response and renew the skin cells. As your skin repairs, the production of collagen and elastin is triggered to give an almost immediate plumping effect. It can also help tackle other skin damage such as scarring, dark marks, sun damage and ageing.
Our microneedling team in Milton Keynes can help you and give you advice on this treatment.
Radio Frequency (RF) Microneedling
The addition of Radiofrequency energy to this procedure helps to further stimulate the body’s natural collagen and healing processes revealing firmer, rejuvenated skin.
How does (RF) microneedling work?
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.
RF microneedling uses a gold-plated needle device that gently penetrates the skin to deliver radiofrequency deep into the dermal layers of the skin. The radio frequency heats at depths that provide cumulative and ongoing benefits of collagen stimulation, skin tightening and resurfacing.
