How do the different Microneedling Treatments differ?
Electronic Device treatments deliver results much faster and can easily treat small areas that a roller may not always reach. This is because facial areas are curved and more challenging to treat with a roller. Treatments with electronic devices are usually less painful because the device’s vibration distracts from the needling sensation. The devices allow the practitioner to control the depth and speed of the treatment, resulting in a more precise outcome. The Dermapen, the Derma FNS Dermapen and EDS are almost the same, except the Dermapens can treat a little bit deeper if needed. Going deeper is rarely required, as it rarely improves the results, but can cause more adverse effects.
Radiofrequency Microneedling uses fine needles to deliver Bipolar Radio Frequency (RF) into the skin. The depth of treatment varies depending on the skin concerns being treated. Radiofrequency energy heats the tissue to 55-65°C and, depending on the depth, stimulates cell renewal, new collagen formation, increased hydration, and resurfacing.
