RF microneedling
Fine needles and radiofrequency to improve texture, scarring and firmness.
Microneedling uses a device with fine needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin, with radiofrequency energy to support the skin's own repair.
It's carried out after a skin consultation, with the number of sessions and aftercare agreed beforehand.
Depending on your goals, Rebeca may suggest combining it with skin boosters or polynucleotides as part of a wider plan.
RF microneedling options
Radiofrequency microneedling for texture, scarring and firmness.
The same treatment with Purasomes applied to support skin repair, finished with LED light therapy.
Non-needle radiofrequency to firm and lift, with no downtime.
Why add Purasomes
Purasomes is a secretome product, a concentrate of exosomes, growth factors and signalling proteins. Microneedling opens tiny channels in the skin, so applying it straight afterwards helps it reach where it's needed.
It's used to support recovery and skin quality after needling, and is finished with LED light therapy.
What to expect
Your skin is cleansed and numbed first. The handpiece is passed over the skin in sections, and you'll feel heat and prickling. Afterwards skin looks pink, like mild sunburn, for a day or two.
Changes in texture and firmness build over the following weeks as your skin repairs. A course of three sessions, four to six weeks apart, is typical.
Honest advice, and knowing when to say, “You don't need that.”
