When it comes to skincare, we're all on the lookout for the next best thing to keep our king looking fresh, glowy and healthy. If you haven't heard of it yet, radio frequency microneedling is one of the newest advanced facial we offer. It's extremely popular in London salons and we're so excited to finally be able to offer it here at Georgie Glow. In this post, we'll dive into this trendy treatment and explain some of the amazing benefits!
What is Radio Frequency Microneedling?
First things first, let's break down what this fancy term really means as it can be a bit confusing! This treatment is all about giving your skin some love without having to undergo any aesthetic treatments.
Microneedling Magic: This treatment uses tiny needles to create small, controlled injuries on your skin. This helps to stimulate your skin which in turn encourages it to heal itself by producing more collagen and elastin – those natural skin-plumping and firming proteins we love and need more of!
The Radio Wave Twist: Radio frequency therapy involves heating up the deeper layers of your skin with radio waves. This controlled warmth stimulates collagen production, resulting in tighter and more youthful skin.
The Double Whammy of RF and Microneedling: What makes radio frequency microneedling such a special facial? Let us explain...
- The micro-injuries from the microneedles act as little channels for the radio frequency energy to penetrate deeper into your skin so you get much better results that just having one treatment alone.
- The heat from radio frequency enhances the collagen production even more, leading to smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin (YAY).
What are the benefits of a Radio Frequency Microneedling facial?
This all sound great, but you may still be wondering what the main benefits are and whether your skin would be suitable for the treatment?
- Smooth skin texture: The two treatments combines help to produce collagen and elastin, making your skin smoother and firmer, so it's the perfect treatment for anyone wanting to prevent ageing or keep up with their anti-ageing skincare routine.
- Say goodbye wrinkles: As we mentioned, it's great at encouraging collagen and elastin production so in turn helps to smooth out and plump any wrinkles and fine lines.
- No more acne scars: If acne scars are skin insecurity for you, then look no further! Radio frequency microneedling is a great treatment for reducing redness and visibility of acne scarring.
- Skin Tightening: This treatment is amazing for tightening the skin and it can be a great option for those wanting to tighten and firm the skin on the face, neck and chest area.
- Speedy Recovery: Unlike some other invasive treatments, the downtime is minimal and you can go about your daily activities with just a small amount of redness.
- Tailored to You: As like all of the treatments we offer at Georgie Glow, this treatment can also be customised to your specific skin needs, making it versatile for all skin types.
The treatment process and what to expect:
- Your skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup or skincare products sitting on the skin.
- A numbing cream is then applied to keep the discomfort to a minimum during the procedure.
- The handheld device, armed with microneedles and radio frequency works its magic on your skin, creating the micro-injuries and delivering that RF goodness.
- Afterwards, you might experience slight redness and very mild swelling, but these are usually short-lived and should calm down within a day or two.
- Results will be visible as your skin cycle does its thing over the next few weeks! You might need a course of treatments to get the best results for your skin.
