High-Tech Resurfacing That’s Safe for Any Skin Type
Laser resurfacing and chemical peels are great, but they’re not for everyone. Patients with darker skin, those who don’t have time to lay low while treated skin heals and peels, and those who have blemishes (i.e., acne scars or large pores) that don’t always respond as well to these treatments deserve great skin too and need another option to address their concerns.
One skin resurfacing treatment that’s safe for nearly everyone: microneedling! It uses dozens of thinner-than-a-hair needles to trigger new skin cell regeneration, helping to improve a myriad of skin concerns without lasers, chemicals, or harsh abrasives.
Infini Microneedling + RF Energy
At GBCS, we’ve taken microneedling one step further with the Infini by Lutronic. This high-tech device combines microneedling with precise delivery of radiofrequency (RF) energy. How does RF help? The energy heats the deeper skin layers, further boosting collagen production for maximum skin tightening effects.
Additionally, the Infini tip can be adjusted to reach an optimal depth for your unique skin type and concerns, allowing us to treat a variety of concerns with one treatment.
Microneedling + PRP for Faster, More Dramatic Results
We can take microneedling even further with platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Platelets are components of blood that are packed with proteins and other nutrients called “growth factors,” which play a key role in collagen production, tissue repair, and cell turnover.
For PRP therapy, we take a small sample of blood from your arm and process it to separate out the platelets and plasma, creating a “platelet-rich plasma” with a super high concentration of growth factors. This PRP is then applied to the skin during a microneedling treatment to amplify natural skin regeneration and speed the onset of results.
Microneedling provides the perfect environment for PRP to absorb into the skin for maximum effectiveness. Including PRP in your microneedling session adds only 15 to 30 minutes to overall treatment time and can make a noticeable difference in how quickly you see results.
Is Infini Microneedling a Good Option for Me?
You’ll need a personal consultation with our expert skin care professionals to determine if microneedling is right for you, but we’ll tell you this: microneedling with RF is one of the most agreeable skin resurfacing treatments and can be used safely on all skin types, even darker or tanned skin.
Most patients need two to three treatments to significantly improve issues such as fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, or skin laxity, but most patients find the downtime-free, low-risk treatments well worth the investment.
