Microneedling is a proven minimally invasive skin rejuvenation treatment, but the technology has recently been upgraded with the introduction of Secret™ RF microneedling. This advanced new skin repair system combines adjustable microneedling with the transmission of fractional radio frequency (RF) energy into the epidermal layers for optimal customization and targeted skin rejuvenation. Secret™ RF is now available in Southwest Florida at Naples-based Tru Glō Medspa.

Safe for all skin types and with limited downtime, Secret™ RF’s dual microneedling and RF action promotes cell regeneration by delivering heat into the deeper layers of skin. This works to remodel and boost the body’s production of collagen, a natural protein found throughout the body.

Collagen is the Key Protein Involved in Skin Production

Collagen is one of the most abundant proteins produced by your body, and it works as a connective tissue builder in the skin, joints, bones, muscles, and other parts of your body. In fact, roughly 80 percent of your skin, especially in the middle layer known as the dermis, is made up of collagen. Unfortunately, we produce less collagen as we age, and by about age 25, the body starts breaking down more collagen than it produces. This holds especially true for those who expose their skin to the sun and those who smoke, as both ultraviolet light and the ingredients in tobacco activate enzymes that break down collagen fibers. In general, though, most people in their late twenties and older start losing about one percent of their collagen per year as they age.

While recent research suggests that natural collagen production may be improved by diet and supplements, microneedling has been proven to stimulate collagen production by causing tissue coagulation and hemostatis. The infusion of radio frequency energy into the skin layers, as offered by Secret™ RF, is believed to significantly enhance the microneedling effect.

Secret™ RF Offers Customized, Targeted Skin Treatment 

Depending upon skin condition(s) and desired aesthetic outcome, Secret™ RF can be calibrated to deliver the RF energy and needle penetration where it will produce the best results. Needle penetration is available from skin depths spanning 0.5 to 3.5 mms, while the RF energy can be adjusted either up or down as called for by the skin condition(s) being treated. Secret™ RF has shown the most promise in treating fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and photodamage on the face and neck, but is also effective in treating skin on other parts of the body and other skin conditions such as stretch marks, scarring, and signs of aging in general. 

Collagen Rejuvenation Continues Long After Treatment

Our clients typically notice visible improvements after their second treatment, but because the boost in collagen production continues long after treatment, many clients report optimal results about three months after the conclusion of their last treatment. Longevity of the results depends upon individual skin types, initial skin condition, and types of issues treated, but to maintain results a booster session is recommended after 12 to 18 months.
