SKIN REJUVENATION TREATMENT
Agnes RF is a treatment that combines the collagen stimulating benefits of microneedling with gentle radiofrequency heating deep into the dermal structure to produce superior skin rejuvenation results.
Agnes RF is an FDA-approved microneedling treatment that also uses radiofrequency
(RF) energy at precise temperatures to regenerate healthy cells and improve skin quality. It is a minimally-invasive procedure that is ideal for all skin tones and skin types. The treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production to lift and tighten the skin. The microneedles also melt fat when the device is used under the eyes, along the jawline, and under the chin for a younger and more sculpted appearance. Agnes RF has nine different needles designed to treat more skin concerns than any other microneedling device. Agnes is an innovative tool that effectively treats multiple conditions and areas with lasting results.
Agnes RF was initially developed to treat acne. The combination of microneedling and
radiofrequency makes Agnes a solution for many skin conditions and concerns, particularly:
Skin Laxity
When Agnes RF is used on the entire face, it can address multiple areas where aging is
present at one time. Some patients liken this treatment to a non-surgical facelift, as it can firm up the skin and smooth away fine lines without incisions or general anesthesia.
Eye Bags
Eye bags are a common concern that occur under the eyes when the skin becomes
thinner and loses its elasticity. In addition to bags, patients may notice discoloration
as the thin skin allows the blood in the underlying vessels to become visible. Agnes RF
addresses these concerns by boosting collagen levels to thicken and tighten the
delicate skin in this area.
Acne
Acne is not just a teen issue – it can also strike adults of all ages. Once the breakouts
are under control, visible scarring can serve as a constant reminder of the condition. RF microneedling works on both active acne and acne scarring, stimulating the body’s own healing processes to produce smoother, healthier skin.
Sebaceous Hyperplasia
Sebaceous hyperplasia occurs when hair follicles become clogged and produce visible
spots on the skin. This condition is not serious, but can be a cosmetic nuisance,
especially if the spots become large. The combination of heat from the radiofrequency
and collagen production from the microneedling can create a superior solution for
treating this troublesome issue.
Jowl Formation
The jawline is often one of the first places to show the signs of skin laxity on the face. Because it increases collagen in the underlying skin structure, Agnes RF can effectively firm up the skin at a cellular level. Over time, you may see your jawline become firmer and more defined.
Submental Fat
Fat under the chin that gives the appearance of a double chin is a significant aesthetic
concern for men and women alike. Agnes RF uses radiofrequency energy delivered deep beneath the skin’s surface to melt excess fat and create a smoother, more youthful chin contour.
Drooping Brow Line
When Agnes RF is used above the eyes, it can tighten sagging skin that leads to a
drooping brown line. The radiofrequency energy constricts the tissue and boosts
collagen level for a non-surgical brow lift.
Agnes RF treats additional concerns, including:
Patients do not have to prepare for their Agnes RF treatment. It is a fast and simple
procedure lasting approximately 30-60 minutes. A numbing cream is applied or an
injectable anesthetic is administered to the treatment area, and the handheld device
uses RF energy as it creates micro-injuries on the skin.
Patients with severe conditions or wanting to address multiple concerns may require a
series of treatment sessions. For the best results, many patients need 2-3 treatments,
spaced about 3-6 months apart. Your provider will create a treatment plan for you
based on your desires and the severity of the condition.
RECOVERY AND RESULTS
For most treatments with Agnes RF, the downtime and recovery are minimal. Recovery
and side effects vary based on the type of treatment. For example, a patient using Agnes for acne can expect redness for 1-3 days, while a patient using Agnes for the sensitive area under the eyes can expect swelling and redness for 3-7 days. Patients can return to normal daily activities right away but should avoid strenuous activities that may impact the treatment area. Patients can apply ice packs to help relieve any discomfort and reduce swelling. Agnes RF can make some skin conditions appear worse than before the treatment initially, but positive improvements will gradually develop over the weeks and months following your procedure. The skin begins to reshape and remove damaged tissue as the body employs its natural healing and collagen and elastin production increases.
