VirtueRF Microneedling

VirtueRF combines radiofrequency (RF) energy and microneedling technologies to create micro-injuries in the skin and stimulate the natural healing process as collagen, elastin, and fibroblast activity all increase. VirtueRF by Cartessa™ is manufactured by ShenB, the global leader in RF microneedling technology.

What is VirtueRF Microneedling?

VirtueRF microneedling stands at the forefront of cutting-edge skincare technology, offering a transformative experience at Thrive Medical Spa. This treatment seamlessly blends precision microneedling with radiofrequency energy to revitalize the skin. The process involves using ultrafine needles that create microchannels in the skin’s surface, stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin. The simultaneous application of RF energy further enhances collagen synthesis, promoting firmer, tighter skin.

Over the years, microneedling has proven effective in addressing various skin concerns, from fine lines to acne scars. VirtueRF takes this approach to the next level through radiofrequency technology, amplifying the overall results for individuals seeking radiant, youthful skin without the need for surgery or extended downtime. In 2023, VirtueRF was voted ”Aestheticians’ Choice”!

The VirtueRF Microneedling Procedure

Prior to the procedure, the patient should avoid excessive sun exposure and inform your practitioner of any active skin conditions or current medications. On the day of the treatment, make sure the skin is clean and free of makeup.

Once arriving at the office, our Thrive Medical Spa professionals begin the RF microneedling procedure. First, a topical numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort. The handheld device, equipped with ultrafine needles, is then gently passed over the treatment area. The microneedles create microchannels in the skin, and radiofrequency energy is delivered to stimulate collagen production. The entire session is relatively quick, from 30 to 60 minutes.

Worried about pain or anxiety? We’ve got you covered! Thrive offers Pro-Nox™, a pain and stress management solution available to all of our medical spa patients.

Your Recovery and Results

Following the VirtueRF microneedling procedure at Thrive Medical Spa, patients can expect a short and straightforward recovery. Immediately after the session, some redness and mild swelling may occur, but these effects subside within a few days. It’s common for patients to resume their regular activities the very next day after the treatment. The patient should avoid excessive sun exposure and use recommended skincare products.

For the results, patients can anticipate a noticeable improvement in skin texture, firmness, and overall tone. The procedure leads to enhanced skin elasticity and reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. Over time, as collagen begins to rebuild, patients experience ongoing skin quality. The results are gradual and natural-looking, making VirtueRF microneedling a sought-after solution for many. While one treatment will deliver notable results, we often recommend a series of three-four treatments over a year.
