• This technique is aimed at all those men who want to improve the appearance of their skin getting a younger and firmer appearance, as well as treating the fat that favors acne. It is a non-invasive and painless procedure that does not need surgical intervention, so it is recommended to all those people who want to avoid other more aggressive procedures.

The first thing that you will have to keep in mind is to make sure that the profound microneedling treatment is in line with what you would like to obtain. That is why, in your initial consultation, our board-certified plastic surgeons will evaluate your health, skin and medical history in order to make sure that the treatment for your specific case does not present contraindications, side effects or possible risks, as well as being perfectly viable for you. In the case of using it as an anti-aging treatment, we assess type of wrinkles, location, prospects of the patient, previous treatments and domiciliary treatments. It can be combined with other anti-aging techniques. There are no age limits to undergo this treatment. As an anti-aging treatment, it should not be used in patients under 30 years of age.

Our surgeon will give you specific instructions on how to prepare for the treatment, include guidelines on eating and drinking, smoking, taking or avoiding safe medications, and washing your body. Before the treatment try not to sunbathe, as well as carry out any type of physical activity that could lead to skin irritation. Another thing that is important to highlight is that there are cases in which some men are more sensitive and prone to feel pain, which is something that you have to take into account when programming different sessions.

This treatment can be carried out with anesthetic cream in order to gently desensitize the area treated, as well as reduce the sensation of heat. This will be applied and left to act between 30-40 minutes. A trick that is often used to make the anesthetic cream more effective is to put a transparent film like the kitchen, so the action of the anesthetic is more effective.

Once the patient arrives at the clinics, the nurses initiate the cleaning of the skin in order to clean and remove any remaining makeup, cosmetics or dirt that the face may have. Then, using a surgical marker, the doctor delimits the area in question and the smear of a conductive gel, so that, afterwards, the procedure is easier to stop. Finally, the device is placed on the skin and, once it reaches the appropriate temperature, it is moved throughout the face passing through each and every one of the areas that were initially marked. Sometimes the patient may feel a slight itch or discomfort, but nothing is further from this, since the pain sensation in this treatment is non-existent.

• Although it is not absolutely necessary to carry out any kind of special care, you can use lotions, gels or creams that can soothe or moisturize. In some cases, ice packs or cold water baths can also be used on the treated area.

• The technique does not create great annoyance and its main advantage is the rapid recovery. The benefits of the treatment are long lasting, since the regenerative process is progressive and gradual. Therefore, the results tend to improve and expand over the months following the treatment session.

• As we have mentioned above, the side effects of this treatment are practically nil or nonexistent. However, in certain cases, especially in those whose skin may be slightly more sensitive than normal, a minimum redness and warmth in the treated areas may occur, which disappear after 3 to 4 days. The above, would derive, only in extreme cases, in blisters, inflammations and small vesicles, but nothing further from reality, since this is not something that is due to RF, but rather the inappropriate use of the devices inherent in the treatment.

• Although its optimal results are appreciated after a few days, at the same time of its application you can already observe the effects, in the reduction and erasure of wrinkles or sunspots. Especially striking is the result in the resurfacing of the area of the lips, grooves and commissures, producing a thickening of the dermis of the area, as a result are filled with the collagen itself and naturally the aforementioned areas. The number and periodicity of the sessions varies according to each case. In general, it is recommended to conduct between 4 or more sessions. Depending on the results, it is advisable to repeat a maintenance session at 6 months. With this treatment you get greater luminosity and improved skin color; decrease of fine wrinkles and fine lines; and remarkable increase in the smoothness of the skin, and retraction in areas that show sagging or sagging due to gravity.
