Patient Benefits

RF Microneedling with Potenza can help address the most common aesthetic concerns because of the added benefit of advanced radiofrequency technology. Treatment results can help the patient achieve the following:

  • Smoother complexion

  • Tighter, firmer looking skin via soft tissue coagulation

  • Brightening of damaged skin

  • Improvement of early signs of aging

  • Younger, healthier looking skin

How It Works

  1. Microneedle tips are placed on epidermis of skin

  2. Microneedles penetrate tissue

  3. Monopolar or bipolar energy is directly applied to target area

  4. Collagen remodeling and elastin strengthening of the skin begin

Patient Experience and Expectations

Once you arrive for your Potenza RF Microneedling treatment, you’ll remove any topical products, including makeup or lotion. You will then apply a numbing cream to the treatment area, which takes about 30 minutes to take effect. Then, your clinician will remove the cream and begin the treatment, which takes about 30-90 minutes to complete.

Does the treatment hurt? Most patients only feel mild to moderate discomfort that can best be described as a prickling sensation with increased heat.

After your Potenza RF Microneedling treatment, you will likely notice some redness and swelling. This typically resolves within a few days. You may feel mild discomfort depending on the area was treated, which typically resolves within couple weeks.

While you may see some initial results after four weeks, the more noticeable effects of the treatment appear over the course of three to six months as your skin goes through three different phases of collagen remodeling. Therefore it is recommended to get three to six treatments for the best possible results!
