Agnes Radiofrequency Offers Innovative, Targeted Skin Rejuvenation.
Microneedling has become one of the most sought after medical aesthetics treatments in recent years. With such beneficial and predictable results, it’s no surprise why. And as we continue to experience the advantages this cosmetic treatment can provide, even more innovative ways to target certain conditions and more delicate areas of the skin have been developed. Agnes Radiofrequency (RF) is one of those developments. Derm Aesthetics of Northern Kentucky is proud to be one of the only practices in the Greater Cincinnati area to utilize this revolutionary device.
What is Agnes RF?
Agnes RF is an FDA-cleared radiofrequency microneedling device that utilizes exclusive Square Wave energy and custom micro-insulated needles to harness the power of concentrated radiofrequency energy and precisely target specific areas of concern. Square Wave Energy reduces the amount of residual energy in the needles, making each treatment more efficient and requiring fewer passes over the skin. Less passes helps preserve the external integrity of your skin by preventing the possibility of residual accumulated heat. In addition, the adjustable settings offer us the freedom to tailor treatments to each individual patient.
How does Agnes RF work?
The Agnes RF needles are the true magic behind this amazing device. The 9 types of needle applications are individually designed to treat specific concerns and different areas of the skin. The fineness of the needles means they can treat delicate areas of skin (such as under the eyes) with concentrated radiofrequency energy and incredible precision. When microneedling treatments are combined with radiofrequency energy, the electromagnetic current delivers thermal energy to heat the deep layer of the skin called the dermis. That heat stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, which are the building blocks of firm, youthful-looking skin.
What does Agnes RF treat?
Agnes RF has shown to be very effective at treating the following skin concerns:
- Acne (including cystic and blackheads)
- Bags under the eyes
- Loose skin of the neck (double chin)
- Formation of jowls
- Scars
Am I candidate for treatment with Agnes RF?
Agnes RF treatment may be a great option for men and women in generally good health who are dealing with mild-to-moderate loose and saggy skin, wrinkles, acne, or acne scars. To determine if you are indeed a candidate, the first place to start is with a private consultation.
How is Agnes RF different from other microneedling devices?
Agnes RF is set apart from other RF microneedling devices thanks to its innovative needles, completely customizable treatment modes, and exclusively engineered RF energy. The unique micro-insulated needles of Agnes RF can effectively address previously hard-to-treat areas of the skin, such as the delicate undereye area. These needles are configured with one or three pins only as opposed to typical square multi-needle applicators commonly found with other microneedling devices. Therefore, Agnes RF needles offer more selective targeting of treatment areas.
Does treatment with Agnes RF hurt?
To ensure you’re comfortable during your treatment, we’ll apply a numbing agent to the skin to minimize any discomfort. We also offer the option for the Pro-Nox™ Nitrous Oxide System to provide the utmost comfort. Most patients tolerate the treatment very well and resume their normal activities the same day.
What results can I expect with Agnes RF treatment?
Many patients start noticing results of Agnes RF right away, but the treated skin will continue to improve for up to six months as collagen and elastin production increase and provide a desired tightening effect. Multiple treatment sessions spaced weeks apart may be needed for best results. When treating acne, for example, three treatments over three to four weeks are often necessary for providing best results. We’ll assess your individual skin concerns during your consultation and determine exactly how many sessions might be needed to meet your goals.
