Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling with the Lutronic Genius system is a professional cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production. This treatment addresses concerns such as wrinkles, acne scars, and skin laxity. It’s essential that only trained and licensed medical professionals perform this procedure to ensure safety and efficacy.
The treatment area is thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, lotions, or other substances.
A topical anesthetic is applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure.
The Genius system allows customization of needle depth and RF energy levels based on the patient’s skin type and treatment goals. These parameters should be set according to the manufacturer’s guidelines and tailored to individual needs.
General Overview of the Procedure:
The handpiece is placed on the targeted skin area, and the microneedles penetrate to the predetermined depth.
RF energy is delivered through the needles, creating controlled micro-injuries that stimulate the body’s natural healing process and promote collagen and elastin production.
The device’s real-time impedance monitoring ensures consistent energy delivery and patient comfort.
Performing the Treatment:
After the procedure, the skin may exhibit redness and swelling, typically subsiding within a few days.
Patients are advised to avoid sun exposure and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30.
It’s recommended to avoid using harsh topical products containing exfoliants, retinoids, or alcohol-based toners for two weeks post-treatment.
