Two treatments are better than one: The power of Profound® RF + microneedling therapy
Profound: The state of quality of being great, intense. Profound® lives up to its name as a great and versatile way to effectively treat a wide range of common skin concerns and signs of aging and sun damage. The “magic” of the Profound system resides in its use of two revolutionary treatments: Radiofrequency (RF) energy and microneedling.
What does the Profound® system do?
When in the hands of our highly qualified and skilled providers at the office of the Precision Skin Institute in Davie, Florida, this nonsurgical two-in-one therapy stimulates the production of numerous beneficial substances. It jumpstarts the renewal of collagen to support the skin’s firmness. Profound® also renews elastin, which gives skin its flexibility. And it also stimulates the production of moisturizing hyaluronic acid.
How does Profound® accomplish these changes in the skin?
Profound® introduces RF energy to targeted skin concerns and areas of the face and body. The energy is delivered via ultrafine needles (microneedling). The thermal effect achieved with RF energy triggers the process of collagen, elastin, and HA production that naturally declines with time. Additionally, microneedling encourages the healing process of new skin cells and the production of beneficial structural components in the skin.
What does it feel like?
Profound® has many built-in settings and controls for your utmost safety and comfort. Treatment is also done to skin that is generally numbed. So, you shouldn’t feel anything. Afterward, there may be some swelling, redness, and soreness at the treatment sites. Most patients can return to their “regular” activities in around 24 hours.
When can I start to see results?
Immediately! All it may take is one treatment session too. It all depends on the nature and severity of what we are trying to treat and your body’s response to treatment. Since beneficial healing and regenerative processes are stimulated, improvements are gradually revealed in the months following treatment.
What does Profound® treat?
The loss of collagen, elastin, and HA can occur with the simple passage of time. Environmental factors, such as the cumulative effects of UV radiation/sun exposure, may also hasten the breakdown of these structural components. When this happens, many visible changes can occur to our skin. You may notice new or worsening wrinkles, laxity, and sunken and hollow areas. Additionally, you may be bothered by a rough, dry texture. And, while cellulite is a multi-factorial condition, age-related changes, and sun damage can worsen the appearance of these dimples by eroding HA, collagen, and elastin proteins, too. All of these conditions may be effectively and efficiently treated with the Profound® system.
