In this article, we'll explore the science behind the device, the benefits you can expect, and why it could be your answer to reversing the signs of aging you’re experiencing. Keep reading to discover how you can rejuvenate your sagging, crepey skin and restore its youthful glow with BTL Exion RF Microneedling.
To understand what RF microneedling is, you need to know that Exion is a sophisticated skin rejuvenation system from BTL Aesthetics that combines advanced technologies to target and reverse signs of aging, degeneration, fat accumulation, and more in over 23 areas of the face and body. The Fractional Monopolar RF Microneedling Applicator is just one of the treatment tools available with this system. This applicator is at the core of Exion's capability to produce superior results, merging traditional microneedling methods with fractional monopolar radiofrequency (RF) energy, all optimized by artificial intelligence (AI). The main features of the BTL Exion RF Microneedling treatment include:
As you age, your skin undergoes significant changes that impact its structure and appearance. The natural aging process leads to a decrease in the production of collagen and elastin, proteins that are crucial for maintaining skin firmness and elasticity. This reduction results in wrinkles, sagging skin, and a loss of youthful plumpness. Environmental factors such as UV exposure, pollution, and lifestyle choices further accelerate the degradation of these essential proteins, exacerbating the signs of aging.
RF microneedling, particularly with the advanced Exion system, effectively counters these aging effects at a cellular level. The microneedling component creates tiny micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body's natural healing response. This response includes the production of new collagen and elastin fibers, essential for repairing and strengthening the skin's structure. The addition of radiofrequency (RF) energy enhances this process by delivering controlled heat deep into the dermal layers.
The RF energy heats the dermis to a precise temperature, causing immediate collagen contraction and stimulating the long-term production of new collagen and elastin. This dual action not only tightens existing collagen fibers but also promotes the creation of new ones, leading to firmer, more youthful skin over time.
Exion RF Microneedling treats a variety of skin conditions, providing significant improvement in both texture and appearance on the face and body. The treatment is effective for:
Whether you're battling the effects of aging, weight loss, or other skin concerns, Exion RF Microneedling offers a versatile solution for rejuvenating your skin and restoring your confidence.
Exion RF Microneedling offers many benefits that make it the best choice for rejuvenating your skin and addressing various concerns. Here are the key benefits you can expect from this scientifically-validated treatment:
Moreover, clinical studies have shown that Exion RF Microneedling achieves an 82% comfort rate and a 93% satisfaction rate among patients.
RF Microneedling is suitable for many individuals seeking to enhance their skin’s appearance and health. However, there are specific considerations and contraindications to keep in mind when determining if this treatment is right for you.
Individuals with metal implants or devices in their bodies, such as pacemakers, metal plates, or screws, should avoid RF microneedling due to the risk of interference with the radiofrequency energy. Pregnant or nursing women are generally advised against undergoing RF microneedling as a precaution.
Active skin infections or conditions in the treatment area, such as severe acne or other infections, should be resolved before considering the procedure. Those prone to keloid scarring need to consult with a specialist, as microneedling may exacerbate the condition. Additionally, people with autoimmune diseases like lupus or scleroderma, which affect the skin, and those with blood clotting disorders or on anticoagulant therapy, should also consult with their doctors before considering RF microneedling.
On the other hand, ideal candidates for RF microneedling are individuals in general good health without any of the aforementioned contraindications. If you are experiencing skin concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, and uneven skin texture, you may benefit significantly from this treatment. If you meet the criteria for an ideal candidate and do not have any contraindications, Exion RF microneedling could be an excellent option for achieving smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
The treatment process for BTL Exion RF Microneedling begins with a comprehensive consultation where the practitioner assesses your skin condition, medical history, and treatment goals. Based on this assessment, a customized treatment plan is developed to address specific skin concerns. Before the treatment, the skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove any makeup, oils, or impurities, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to minimize discomfort during the procedure.
During the session, the practitioner uses the BTL Exion device to perform microneedling, creating micro-injuries in the skin while delivering RF energy deep into the dermis. You may experience a mild prickling sensation from the microneedles and a warming sensation from the RF energy. Each session typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area and the specific skin concerns being addressed.
Immediately after the procedure, it is common to experience mild redness and swelling, which usually subsides within a few hours to a couple of days. The treated area may feel slightly sensitive or tender, similar to a mild sunburn. You’ll be advised to avoid direct sun exposure and use gentle skincare products for a few days following the treatment.
While some improvements in skin texture and tone may be noticeable within a week, optimal results typically become apparent over several weeks as collagen and elastin production continues. Three sessions spaced a few weeks apart are recommended for the best results.
