Which RF microneedling device is the best and most effective?
In recent years, RF (radiofrequency) microneedling has emerged as a revolutionary non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment. Leveraging the power of controlled heat and micro-injuries, this advanced technique has gained popularity due to its impressive results. Among the various devices available, Profound RF, Morpheus8, Secret RF, and EndyMed stand out as leaders in the field. In this blog, we will delve into the world of RF microneedling, explaining how it works and what results one can expect before exploring the unique features and benefits of Profound RF in comparison to other RF microneedling devices.
Understanding RF Microneedling
RF microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy. It utilises a handheld device equipped with tiny, ultra-fine needles that create micro-injuries in the skin. These micro-injuries trigger the body’s natural healing response, stimulating collagen and elastin production. The addition of radiofrequency energy allows for controlled heating of the deeper layers of the skin, further enhancing the skin rejuvenation process.
How does RF Microneedling work?
RF microneedling works by creating micro-injuries through the penetration of tiny needles into the skin, forming microchannels that trigger the body’s wound-healing response. This response initiates the production of collagen and elastin, essential proteins for skin health and elasticity. Additionally, the procedure involves the delivery of radiofrequency energy through the needles, which generates controlled heat in the targeted layers of the skin. This heat stimulates collagen remodelling, leading to enhanced skin tightening and improvement in texture. Together, the micro-injuries and controlled heat of RF microneedling contribute to a rejuvenated and more youthful appearance of the skin.
What is Profound RF?
Redefining our approach to skin tightening treatments, Profound RF is an advanced technology that stimulates collagen production of the underlying layers of the dermis. It utilises micro-needles to administer tiny pinpricks into the dermis to effectively resurface and remodel with minimal trauma to the skin’s surface. When it gets there, the energy is converted into an intense heat (67 degrees C) that triggers the desired wound healing response, spurring growth of those all-important building blocks, collagen and elastin. By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, the tissues of the face are remodelled to reveal a tighter, more youthful, and beautifully balanced appearance.
There is certainly nothing more transformative than tightening and resurfacing skin that has lost its fight with ageing and gravity, especially without pain, surgery, and downtime.
How does Profound RF compare to other RF microneedling devices?
Profound RF and other RF microneedling device like Morpheus8, EndyMed and Secret RF all combine microneedling and radiofrequency energy, but they are quite different in many ways.
The Profound RF device stands out as a powerful and effective option in the realm of RF microneedling. Its unique capabilities allow for exceptional outcomes. Compared to other devices, Profound RF delivers the energy for four times longer, meaning the deeper tissues are exposed to the energy delivered for much longer. This optimal energy deposition leads to optimal protein denaturation in just one treatment. With Profound RF, elastin production can increase up to five-fold, collagen levels in the skin can double, and hyaluronic acid levels can be dramatically boosted.
These clinical advancements translate into remarkable benefits for patients. The skin becomes noticeably tighter, recapturing its youthful bounce. Jowls can be lifted, and lines and wrinkles are significantly reduced. Additionally, Profound RF has the capacity to target and refine the jawline by addressing the fat pad beneath the chin.
The effectiveness of Profound RF is supported by studies, which have shown a 100% response rate in reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and a 95% response rate in improving sagging skin. Unlike other devices that require multiple treatment sessions for optimal results, Profound RF is capable of delivering one-third of a facelift result in just a single treatment. The results obtained from Profound RF treatments have a lasting impact, with effects that can be enjoyed for several years.
