RF Microneedling is a well-known cosmetic procedure which claims to give skin back its youth. But can it really boost the skin’s elasticity, improve the look of wrinkles and reduce lines around the mouth? 

Smoothing Out Lines Around The Mouth

Fractional RF (Radio Frequency) Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment used to reduce lip lines and smooth out other areas of the face. The Focus Dual device combines RF Microneedling technology with High Intensity Focussed Ultrasound (HIFU) to help treat fine lines and wrinkles. 

Ultra-fine needles leave tiny punctures in the skin, prompting a wound-healing response. New collagen-rich tissue is then created which helps to firm the skin. The Focus Dual device uses vacuum suction technology to safely allow the deep and precise penetration of radio frequency into the dermal layer of skin. Heat is generated by radio frequency, which stimulates collagen and elastin production in order to revitalise and tighten the skin.

As collagen plumps out skin and stops it from sagging, Fractional RF Microneedling really can help to reduce lines around the mouth!

Treatment Also Benefits Large Pores And Acne Scarring

In addition to fine lines and wrinkles, RF Microneedling can help to improve overall skin tone and texture. Treatments will also benefit anyone suffering with:

  • acne scarring
  • scarring
  • open or large pores
  • stretch marks 

Traditional Microneedling Vs. RF Microneedling

Traditional Microneedling causes micro-injuries to the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. By adding radio frequency, RF Microneedling further enhances skin tightening and scar reduction. This produces faster and more dramatic results.

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

An in-depth consultation will take place before treatment begins. One of our experienced practitioners will assess your skin and give you an estimate on the number of treatments you will need. On average we recommend a minimum of 3-6 treatments, spaced 12-20 weeks apart. 

Is There Any Downtime?

Unlike other forms of Microneedling, Focus Dual RF Microneedling does not require any downtime. This is due to non-insulated tips being used. Heat from radio frequency is generated along the full length of the needle to give a better thermal effect. This means there is less pinpoint bleeding as the blood coagulates. The Focus Dual is the only device that uses vacuum suction technology, providing an accurate level of needle penetration for a more precise treatment and less downtime. You may experience slight facial redness after treatment but this will settle within an hour or two.

Can The Focus Dual Help My Skin?

RF Microneedling can help to alleviate fine lines and wrinkles, textural skin issues, scarring and open pores. If you would like to address any of these problems, or simply want to rejuvenate your skin, RF Microneedling is the perfect treatment for you.
