Potenza RF Microneedling Ottawa

Yes it is. Since radiofrequency isn’t a laser and no harsh chemicals are applied, RF microneedling with PRP is safe for all skin types and tones. 

If you have sensitive skin, your esthetician or medical aesthetician can adjust the settings to ensure the treatment is gentle and effective.

Potenza RF microneedling can last for up to five years, and you can seek follow-up treatments to extend the effects further. On the other hand, traditional microneedling will only last three to five months, but you can also seek some follow-up treatments twice a year to extend the results.

The Potenza radiofrequency microneedling treatment by Cynosure® is a customizable solution to help tighten and firm your skin, minimize the common signs of aging and reduce blemishes. Potenza takes RF microneedling to new levels with revolutionizing enhanced topical penetration.

RF microneedling, while effective for skin tightening, does not definitively melt face fat. The treatment primarily stimulates collagen production and improves skin texture.

Although some studies suggest a modest reduction in fat cell volume, results are not as significant as dedicated fat-reduction procedures available to you in Ottawa, Ontario like PCDC Lipolysis

Potenza RF microneedling is generally considered to be more effective than traditional microneedling. This is because Potenza combines the benefits of microneedling with the benefits of radiofrequency energy. Radiofrequency energy helps to heat the skin, which can stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. This can lead to improved skin texture, reduced wrinkles, and a more youthful appearance

Side effects are to be anticipated following a Potenza RF microneedling treatment. The skin will be flushed or red as if you’ve spent the day in the sun with a mild to moderate sunburn, which may be expected when you leave your appointment. Potenza RF Microneedling-induced redness usually goes away in 48 hours or less. Other side effects may include swelling, bruising, and light discomfort.

A topical numbing cream will be applied prior to your Potenza treatment. Once the numbing cream is activated, the treatment should be very tolerable. During the treatment you may feel a mild sting, a warm sensation, or a light pressure from the needles as the device moves over the treatment area.

The number of Potenza treatments needed will depend on patient preference and their desired results. Providers will typically recommend having a series of three to four treatments, six weeks apart for best results. However, some people may see results after only one treatment.

Potenza microneedling is considered a very safe and effective treatment for people of all skin types and pigments, and it can be performed at any time of year, with no downtime necessary. However, as with all medical procedures, not everyone is a suitable candidate for this type of treatment.

You should notice smoother, more glowing skin within about two weeks. It can take between 2 to 6 months to see long-term results because it takes time for your body to start making collagen and elastin after a treatment.

In Ottawa, the cost of Potenza RF microneedling varies based on the area treated and the number of sessions needed. At Dr. Lian Beauty, expect to pay between $300 and $800 per single treatment session. Consult with a licensed practitioner for a personalized quote based on your specific needs.

Botox and RF microneedling are both effective treatments for improving the appearance of the skin. However, they work in different ways and are best suited for different people. Botox works by blocking the nerve signals that cause muscles to contract, which can help to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. RF microneedling works by creating tiny channels in the skin that allow for the delivery of nutrients and growth factors, which can help to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture.

Potenza Fusion is a microneedling device that uses a unique dual air-chamber design to enhance topical delivery. The ultrafine needles in the Fusion Tip use the benefit of each burst of air to push the topicals down into the dermis, the layer of skin that contains collagen and elastin. This can help to improve the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, and other skin concerns.

Potenza Fusion tip with HA is a treatment that uses tiny needles to make micro channels in your skin. This helps your skin absorb hyaluronic acid (HA), which is a natural substance that helps to keep your skin hydrated and plump. HA can also help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and make your skin look younger.

Fusion tip with PRP is a microneedling treatment that uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to improve the appearance of the skin. The Fusion tip is used to create microchannels in the skin, and the PRP is then delivered to the deeper layers of the skin through the microchannels. This helps to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture.

PRP is a better choice for RF microneedling than HA because it contains growth factors, can penetrate deeper into the skin, and is more effective for certain skin concerns. HA is less expensive and more available, but it is not as effective for wrinkles, fine lines, and acne scars.
