Reducing wrinkles without Botox….
Blog
Fine lines and wrinkles are two of the most common signs of ageing. When we hit our mid-twenties, our collagen and elastin levels begin to decrease which means our skin steadily becomes less smooth and firm. For some, more invasive procedures which help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles - think dermal fillers or Botox® - are seen as too drastic. Fortunately, there is a minimally invasive treatment with virtually no downtime that aims to restore the skin’s youth - Radio Frequency (RF) Microneedling.
What Is RF Microneedling?
Two gold-standard technologies are combined in RF Microneedling, resulting in fabulous, age-reversing results. Microneedling uses ultra-fine needles to penetrate the skin. The needles create tiny punctures which initiate the skin’s natural healing process. From here, the skin produces new, collagen-rich tissue to help smooth out fine lines and wrinkles.
Secondly the Focus Dual Microneedling device uses vacuum suction technology to allow the deep penetration of radio frequency energy into the dermis layer of the skin. Radio frequency heats the skin to 55 degrees causing dermal contraction and stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. These proteins help to regenerate the skin and improve its elasticity.
How Quickly Will My Wrinkles Appear Reduced?
Results can be seen immediately after your first RF Microneedling treatment, with best results becoming visible at around 10 days. Results will continue to improve as collagen and elastin production increases over time.
Does RF Microneedling Hurt?
Microneedling treatments are minimally invasive, which means that discomfort should be kept to a minimum. The heat produced by radio frequency helps to minimise skin irritation.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
Most clients will need around 3 sessions to reduce wrinkles, spaced 3 weeks apart. Maintenance treatments may be required 3 months after your final session.
How Do I Book My First Treatment?
Radio Frequency Microneedling really does reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. What’s more, these changes are brought about in a more natural way than surgery or Botox®. If you are ready to embrace younger-looking skin, call us at Meadow Lea Aesthetics, near Chester on 01244267672.
