Potenza RF Microneedling in Mill Creek, WA
​
What Is Potenza RF Microneedling by Cynosure?
Cynosure’s radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is a rejuvenating energy-based aesthetic treatment that can refresh and revitalize your appearance. The treatment accelerates natural collagen production and helps tighten your skin using tiny 24 carat gold needles that pierce the skin’s topmost layer. The treatment area is also exposed to RF energy, which stimulates healing and collagen growth.
The result of the treatment is tighter, revitalized, and youthful skin. If you’re looking for a non-invasive solution that can minimize wrinkles, fine lines, acne scarring, and blemishes, this world-class treatment can be ideal for you. Cynosure’s energy-based microneedling treatment can be safely performed on ALL SKIN TYPES and areas of the body.
What Are the Benefits of the Treatment?
When it comes to tightening loose skin and diminishing imperfections, RF microneedling offers superior results and benefits! The unique technology used in the treatment can address advanced signs of aging or scarring and can give you visibly tighter, firmer, younger-looking skin without the need for scabs, possible discoloration, scarring, stitches or injections. And unlike traditional microneedling, Cynosure’s microneedling with radiofrequency energy has a MUCH faster healing time than most treatments, can be done on ANY skin type or color, and can be done ALL YEAR ROUND! Because we want to offer you the best technology on the market, we felt this specific device was a must in our practice.

Why RF Microneedling vs. Microneedling Pen Treatments?
Potenza delivers focused radiofrequency (RF) technology to heat the skin. Using RF technology will trigger your body’s natural response to create an increased level of collagen and elastin production, resulting in an enhanced skin revitalization treatment versus microneedling alone. Another bonus, with Potenza we are able to go much deeper, such as on the body through thicker layers of tissue.
1 RF microneedling treatment is the equivalent to 3 microneedling skin pen sessions!
​
Tailored to Your Needs
Cynosure’s microneedling device comes with multiple radiofrequency modes that make it possible to customize your treatment according to your skin type and cosmetic goals. The microneedling component of the treatment is used to stimulate natural collagen production as well as accurately target blemishes on the surface.
​
Add-ons: The patented fusion tips have the ability to infuse growth factors to help the absorption rate go up to 67%! Exosomes growth factors have been proven to increase skin remodeling. Growth factors will be applied during your treatment as an add-on, plus you will be sent home with them to apply at home. The results are INCREDIBLE!

What To Expect From the Treatment
Your treatment will be performed by a Master Aesthetician in a relaxing, luxurious, and comfortable environment. Before your treatment session begins, we will apply a topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort during the entire treatment. You can expect to feel gentle, warm sensations in the targeted areas due to the radiofrequency energy component of RF microneedling.
​
​
When Will You See the Results?
During the treatment session, microneedles and radiofrequency energy penetrate the topmost layer of the skin. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing process, allowing new collagen and elastin to regenerate. This rejuvenation process can take as long as four to eight weeks, and visible results may appear several weeks after your last treatment session.
​
​
How Many Treatments Will You Need?
You may need more than one session to effectively trigger a substantial increase of elastin and collagen levels in your skin. The number of treatments you’ll require will depend on a few factors, such as your skin condition, treatment goals, and how well your body reacts to the treatment.
At Glow Skin Science, we only want you to get the best results and experience. We will customize a treatment plan and come up with a schedule that is tailored to your needs and preferences.
