What is Potenza RF Microneedling?
Potenza RF Microneedling is a cosmetic treatment that blends microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) technology for skin revitalization. It involves the use of small needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin while simultaneously applying RF energy to heat the deeper skin layers. This dual action promotes collagen production, aiding in the enhancement of skin texture, reduction of wrinkles, and treatment of diverse skin concerns.
How is Potenza RF Microneedling intended to be used?
Potenza RF Microneedling is utilized to revitalize both facial and body skin, and it is acknowledged for its effectiveness in managing a wide array of skin problems. This procedure can be tailored to suit each person’s specific requirements and is carried out by certified medical professionals.
How does Potenza RF Microneedling work?
The Potenza RF microneedling treatment uses ultrafine needles and heat to penetrate the top layer of the skin and trigger the body’s natural healing process to regenerate new collagen and elastin. Potenza has a high-level of customization due to the use of both monopolar and bipolar modes in addition to multiple needle options. While monopolar RF delivers energy in a more generalized, less intense fashion to deeper tissues, bipolar RF delivers more concentrated treatments to the skin. Potenza provides the option of monopolar or bipolar mode (or a combination of both modes) which allows this technology to be suited to any skin type.
