Virtue RF Microneedling Treatment in Clayton, NC

Microneedling and RF skin rejuvenation treatments are on their own very effective but are combined through the virtue of RF microneedling treatment. This treatment uses a handheld device that holds 36 microneedles that have gold-coated tips that transmit RF (radio frequency) energy deep into the layers of the skin to heat the skin cells in a safe and controlled manner. The treatment is not painful at all, with many patients even finding the heating of the skin to be relaxing, but a topical numbing cream can be applied to the surface of the patient’s skin before treatment to ease any discomfort, particularly for those with sensitive skin.

The Virtue of RF microneedling treatment combines the power of microneedling and RF energy to effectively stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, improving the tone and texture of the skin. Both components of the treatment work when used individually to gently cause micro wounds in the skin, stimulating the natural healing process to regenerate new skin cells and increase the production of elastin and collagen. This procedure uses a handheld device with 36 microneedles that gently penetrate the surface of the skin while the RF energy gently heats the ends of the microneedles to penetrate even deeper into the skin to provide the patient with even more effective and longer-lasting results. The micro wounds will also open micro channels in the surface of the skin to allow for more effective absorption of topical products being applied, making it common for this treatment to be followed with the application of high-quality skin care products that are specifically chosen to enhance the specific results desired by the patient.

The results provided from Virtue RF microneedling take around 3 to 6 months to fully develop as the skin cells continue to regenerate and the production of collagen and elastin continue to develop. Most patients will need to complete a series of around 3 to 4 initial treatments in order to achieve the best results and to provide long-lasting results. These initial treatments should be spaced around 4 to 6 weeks apart to allow for the skin to heal and for the production of collagen and elastin to be increased before the next treatment is completed. Once the initial series of the Virtue RF microneedling treatments are completed, patients can expect to enjoy the beautiful results provided for anywhere from 6 to 12 months, with many cases where the results will last even longer.

It is highly recommended that patients follow all instructions and recommendations provided from their skin care specialist after receiving the Virtue RF microneedling treatments to sustain the results for even longer and to ensure the health of their skin in between treatments. Healthy skin will translate to longer-lasting results, so keeping the skin properly cleansed and hydrated through the use of high-quality products, and protecting the skin from sun damage will allow you to get the most out of your skin care treatments.

The cost of Virtue RF microneedling treatments per session will vary quite a bit depending on several factors, including the location from which you receive the procedure, as urban and rural areas will have very different price points depending on the cost of living, what part of the body is being treated, and how intensive of a treatment is required. The level of expertise of the skin care specialist providing the treatment will also determine the cost per session, but it is always recommended that patients find a reputable licensed professional from whom to receive this treatment to ensure their own health and safety. The range can be anywhere from $350 to $2000 for one session, with an average single treatment of Virtue RF microneedling typically being around $1,000. Most clinics that offer this type of procedure will offer patients a package including several sessions, which makes sense for most patients as several sessions are recommended, that will allow for a decreased price per session when purchased all at once.
