What is microneedling?

During microneedling, a device affixed with tiny needles glides over your skin to create micro-injuries. Your body responds to these injuries by rushing healing factors in to promote skin strengthening and repair. Collagen production also increases.

At In Shape Wellness Center, microneedling also includes radiofrequency, a powerful energy that further triggers skin regeneration and healing. The radiofrequency energy penetrates deeply into your skin to further produce collagen and firm up your skin. 

With microneedling, you experience smoother skin texture, a more even skin tone, and reduced lines and wrinkles. 

What are the benefits of microneedling?

Microneedling creates luminous skin and helps eliminate many common skin complaints. 

You might consider microneedling if you are bothered by:

• Sun damage
• Age spots
• Acne and other scars
• Large pores
• Stretch marks
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Irregular skin texture

The addition of radiofrequency also tightens up mildly sagging skin. 

What should I expect to experience during radiofrequency microneedling?

Microneedling with radiofrequency is minimally invasive, and the staff at In Shape Wellness Center strive to make your experience as comfortable as possible. You’ll relax in a comfortable treatment chair while a technician cleanses your skin and applies a topical numbing cream. 

You’ll feel tingling and warmth as the microneedling device glides across your skin. Areas with extra wrinkling or congestion may get several passes. The entire treatment lasts about 20-30 minutes. 

The team at In Shape Wellness Center will also consult with you if PRP injections could benefit your wellness goals. PRP has remarkable healing properties, and is effective for skin rejuvenation, hair restoration, and other aesthetic treatments. 

When will I see the effects of radiofrequency microneedling?

The most dramatic results of microneedling show up after a series of three or four radiofrequency microneedling treatments. You schedule these four to six weeks apart. 

Immediately after your treatment, you may have slight skin swelling and redness. These side effects fade in a day or two, and then you’ll notice a glow and luminosity in your skin. 

The long-term effects of microneedling take several weeks to show up as your skin restores itself and establishes new cells and fresh collagen. Schedule a maintenance session every 6-12 months to maintain your skin’s vibrancy.

Endymed FSR 

Fractional skin resurfacing (more commonly known as laser resurfacing) is an anti-aging and beauty treatment that sends concentrated pulses of light at irregular skin surfaces to rejuvenate skin from the outside in two ways simultaneously; controlled micro-resurfacing and dermal heating. FSR radiofrequency handpiece creates intense heat in tiny columns arranged in a grid to remove tiny dots of epidermis so new skin tissue can be formed together with volumetric heating of the dermis up to a controlled depth of up to 5.0 mm for the promotion of collagen growth and remodeling with resultant reduction of skin laxity and wrinkles, stretch marks,

Micro-resurfacing increases epidermal cell renewal to smooth fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and other blemishes such as brown spots or blotchy skin coloring and hyperpigmentation and brightens the complexion. FSR is an ideal minimally invasive treatment for “acne scars, deep wrinkles, stretch marks, and dilated pores.”
