​Using RF Microneedling to rejuvenate your skin!

Picture
It goes without saying that aging is inevitable. But getting old? Not so much. We can apply a lot of resistance to getting old. Many say that getting old is only in your mind, and there is a whole lot of wisdom and truth in that statement. But looking old isn’t just in your mind. ​

Looking old isn’t just in your mind.     There are many things that we have no control over.​

As we are forced to take part in the inevitable process of aging our bodies start to look older. There are many things that we have no control over. Genetics, environment, and the human condition to name a few. The Yin is, there are plenty of things that we have lots of control over and can use that to our advantage to look much younger than our actual age. There is a Yang, of course, and that is there isn’t a magic pill, yet, and looking young is a lifelong process.
Our bodies accumulate a lifetime of cellular and molecular damage that ages our skin. The goal for looking youthful despite your age is to prevent as much of that damage as possible from happening as well as repairing the damage that does happen. 

 We know without any doubt that UV rays damage our skin and cause it to look aged. Sunscreen prevents the UV radiation from penetrating the skin and causing damage. 

​First, let’s discuss prevention. It all starts with SPF. We have a complicated relationship with our Sun. It giveth and it taketh away. It gives us life and strips us of our youthful complexion. But we have a great defense, and that is sunscreen. We know without any doubt that UV rays damage our skin and cause it to look aged. Sunscreen prevents the UV radiation from penetrating the skin and causing damage. On top of that, hats, sunglasses, UV protective clothing, and umbrellas are all great ways of preventing those harmful protons from penetrating our skin.

The second step is repairing and restoring the skin that does get damage. As great as SPF and other preventative steps are, some skin damage will inevitably happen from the sun, from other environmental causes and from natural aging as well. Thankfully we can help the body repair much of the damage.

Radio Frequency (RF) Microneedling uses heat energy to encourage the skin to heal. Pulses of energy released into the dermis stimulate collagen and elastin production providing a tightening and smoothing effect. The old damaged skin is sloughed off revealing new skin with a younger appearance. 

Because it only affects a small fraction of the skin, downtime is short (a few days) compared to more intense ablative laser services or chemical peels. At SkinWise Rx we have multiple RF microneedling devices that provide reliable and comfortable treatments and results.

RF Microneedling will also improve wrinkles, texture, acne scars, active acne, cellulite, and hyperhidrosis (too much sweat). Importantly, RFmicroneedling is effective on all skin tones and types because the needles deliver heat evenly and directly beneath the epidermis.
