Potenza: Industry Hype or Microneedling Magic?

Blemish scars, lack of firmness, fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots — we can go on and on listing the multitude of complaints about our skin; thankfully, there’s a treatment with a list of benefits just as long. But does Potenza RF Microneedling really live up to the hype?

What is it?

Before we can answer if Potenza RF Microneedling supports the claims of delivering firmer, smoother, youthful, and more glowing skin, let’s start with what Potenza RF Microneedling actually is.

This treatment is a customizable solution that’s designed for you. Whether you want to tighten and firm your skin,* minimize the common signs of aging, reduce blemishes/acne scarring or achieve a more radiant complexion, you’ll unleash your skin’s potential after only a few treatments. Unlike other skin rejuvenation treatments, Potenza RF Microneedling can be performed on all skin types, anywhere on the body, at any time of the year.

Added bonus: the treatments are quick and cost-effective versus traditional laser procedures, with minimal downtime.

Sounds pretty fantastic right? But how does it work?

How it works

Potenza RF Microneedling uses a combination of technologies to restore and improve your skin’s quality. During treatment, the ultrafine microneedle tip is placed against the skin and penetrates the skin barrier to deliver your custom skincare cocktail. This advanced design enhances the penetration of topicals by 67% to maximize your end results.* 

As the microneedling penetrates the skin, radiofrequency (RF) energy is applied directly to the treatment area to heat the skin. This stimulates the body’s natural healing process to regenerate new collagen and elastin. The results will come out more naturally over the next four to six weeks. 

So now that you know how it works, what does all this technology mean for you? Glad you asked!

What are the benefits?

Now that you know the tech behind the technology, here are some facts to prove that Potenza RF Microneedling really is all that and a bag of chips!

  • Stimulates new collagen production to not only give you tighter, firmer-looking skin,*but younger-acting skin

The Takeaway

Clearly, the results speak for themselves, and it can be argued that Potenza RF Microneedling is a powerhouse treatment that is a more natural solution that’s quick and convenient. So the next question is, are you ready for your Potenza RF Microneedling appointment at LuminaSkin?

Here’s what to expect: we will apply a topical numbing cream to ensure the treatment is more comfortable before your treatment. Then, after you are comfortably numb, the treatment will begin.

You may experience warmth on the treatment areas following your treatment, similar to that of a mild sunburn. This should subside within a day or two; then, the healing begins. Depending on the type of treatment received, you can see results in as little as a day. The elastin and collagen-building process take four to six weeks, but optimal results are seen at twelve weeks and after multiple treatments.

Depending on your goals and results, the experts at LuminaSkin will recommend three to five treatments, roughly four weeks apart.
