What are the benefits of Potenza™ RF Microneedling and injectables?
Ready to give your skin a total refresh but don’t want significant downtime? Many minimally invasive aesthetic dermatological treatments have come a long way and can now help with various skin issues, like static and dynamic wrinkles and fine lines, uneven skin texture, creases, folds, and more. Two cosmetic treatments that offer a total skin reset when combined are injectables and Potenza™ RF Microneedling.
What is RF Microneedling?
RF Microneedling is a newer dermatological treatment that merges the benefits of traditional cold microneedling with radiofrequency technology. This treatment revitalizes the skin by stimulating natural collagen protection and improving skin texture, firmness, and elasticity. Potenza™ RF Microneedling, a state-of-the-art microneedling technology with four different settings, is customizable for all skin types and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, and more.
What about injectables?
There are two main types of injectables — neuromodulators like Botox and Xeomin and hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers, such as Juvéderm and Revanesse. Botox and Xeomin reduce the appearance of dynamic fine lines and wrinkles by temporarily paralyzing the muscles that cause wrinkles, thus smoothing the skin. Neuromodulators are effective on the forehead, around the eyes, and on other facial lines, with results lasting around three to four months before another treatment is needed.
Dermal fillers like Juvéderm and Revanesse come in different formulations depending on which area of the face is being treated. Both are designed to hydrate and restore volume in the face and can treat lips, nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and cheeks. Revanesse LIPS+ is specifically formulated to augment and hydrate lips. Results from dermal fillers can last anywhere from 12 to 24 months, depending on the specific product.
What are the benefits of combining Potenza™ RF Microneedling and injectables?
Combining Potenza™ RF Microneedling with injectables like Botox and Juvéderm means that different skin concerns can be addressed holistically. While RF Microneedling addresses skin laxity and texture and promotes collagen production, injectables like neuromodulators and dermal fillers target specific areas for wrinkle reduction and volume restoration. This combination leads to a more comprehensive SkinFitness™ treatment, offering immediate and long-lasting results.
Proper spacing is important to maximize the benefits of combining RF Microneedling with injectables. For RF Microneedling and Botox or Xeomin in the same area, it’s recommended to wait a minimum of one week, with Botox and Xeomin ideally scheduled two to four weeks before RF Microneedling on the face or neck. When combining RF Microneedling with fillers, including lip filler, a minimum two-week interval is required, regardless of which treatment is done first. This spacing ensures the efficacy of each treatment while minimizing potential side effects.
