Skin looks younger, firmer. And texture, tone and clarity? Smoothed, brightened and improved. The Fusion Tip is the newest addition to its Potenza radiofrequency (RF) microneedling system.

What is radiofrenquency microneedling?

Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is a minimally invasive skin rejuvenation procedure that pairs microneedling with radiofrequency energy. It uses a bundle of fine needles to deliver RF energy directly heating up your deep layer skin, while doing so creating micro lesions at the same time that trigger your body’s natural healing response and promote production of new collagen and elastin, to firm and remodel skin. The most well known brand names are Potenza, Morpheus8, and Virtue.

How RF microneedling works?

Potenza RF microneedling combines the two treatment modalities together to promote the regeneration and rejuvenation of your skin. Microneedling uses fine needles to create micro wounds, or channels, in the skin. This triggers the production of capillaries, elastin, and collagen. External radiofrequency treatment is also known to be effective at boosting collagen and improving a number of age-related skin concerns, but with limited penetration depth. Radiofrequency microneedling creates a specific combination of the two procedures, bringing together the radiofrequency waves used in external RF skin treatments and microneedling to.
