Microneedling + RF

Microneedling + RF

Microneedling

At Skincenters, we work with Zimmer's Relift device that uses radio frequency in addition to just micro-needles for even more effective results. 

Why microneedling + radiofrequency?

The micro-needles used in treatment are going to make micro-punctures in the skin and at the same time radiofrequency energy is delivered through these tiny "holes. So in RF microneedling, the needles are used with the goal of delivering radiofrequency into the dermis via radiofrequency waves. Radiofrequency provides the addition of heat, which further increases the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.

This makes the treatment ideal to employ for improving:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Stretch marks & scars
  • Skin texture
  • Provides skin tightening
  • Refinement of pores 
  • Lifting effect of the skin

What Skincenters offers

Treatment

A new sterile attachment with ultra-fine needles is taken for treatment each time. Depending on the zone and exact indication, settings such as depth, energy, etc of the device are set differently.

Thanks to the micro-needles, the handpiece heats the skin in depth at a temperature of 60 to 70 degrees to create coagulation zones.

This treatment involves 3 passages over the skin, each time treating a different layer of the dermis. This starts the skin's repair process by stimulating collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.

The first results are visible 4 to 6 weeks after treatment.

Preparation and aftercare

Preparation: it is best not to apply anything to the face before the treatment.

Aftercare: A microneedling + rf treatment has a short recovery time & minimal downtime. Immediately after treatment the skin may still feel warm and there may be slight redness, you can resume your daily activities right away though.

After treatment, it is best not to apply products to the skin immediately.

The days after treatment, it is recommended to wear no makeup or only mineral makeup (this allows the skin to breathe).

FAQ

What sets Skincenters apart from other centers?

Through our years of experience, we know that the healing process has a very big impact on tattoo removal. Therefore we have chosen to use a second laser that specifically promotes the skin healing process, namely the Etherea. So at Skincenters we always work in two steps, with two lasers in one treatment.
In addition, we finish each treatment with a specially developed cream for laser treatments, Laserat, which has a calming and restorative effect on the treated skin.

Can any tattoo be treated?

Yes, any tattoo can be treated. The only condition is that the tattoo is 6 months old.

Is the treatment painful?

Tattoo removal is not a pleasant treatment. However, we do everything we can to make it as comfortable as possible for you by using a cooling system, among other things. Also, the treatment itself only takes a few minutes.

Can a tattoo be completely removed?

Yes, our Picoplus laser from Lutronic, thanks to its picoseconds and high peak power, is the most powerful laser currently available for tattoo and permanent makeup removal. This allows us to completely remove a tattoo without scarring.

Should I stay out of the sun?

After treatment, sun exposure should be avoided and application of SPF50 is necessary. The skin is in recovery and so you should stay out of the sun as much as possible for 3-4 weeks. It is also best to avoid the sun for 2-3 weeks prior to treatment.

Why remove a tattoo with a laser?

There are several options for tattoo removal, although not all of them are safe and risk-free. Our Picoplus laser from Lutronic is the most powerful laser on the market and provides a complete removal without any heating in the skin. Because the laser features a short pulse duration, the risk of skin damage is minimal.
