About Intensif RF™ Microneedling

Overview

Developed by Endymed, Intensif RF remodels collagen and activates natural collagen production, resulting in firmer, toned skin. Fractional radiofrequency energy is delivered into the subdermal tissue, stimulating collagen production and cell regeneration.

Customization options include a 25-pin tip and adjustable 0.5–5mm penetration depth, catering to different skin concerns.

Advantages

This treatment addresses a variety of skin conditions including fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, acne scars, stretch marks, excessive oiliness, and skin laxity. Radio Frequency enhances the efficacy of micro needling.

Pros
  • Requires fewer passes because the treatment delivers energy throughout the entire needle.
  • Effectively addresses prevalent skin issues such as uneven skin tone, laxity, stretch marks, fine lines, and acne scars.
Cons
  • Non-insulated needles mean it may not be safe for all skin tones. Risks include pinpoint marks or grid marks, scarring, and discoloration.
  • The risks mentioned above may lead to more downtime (three to seven days).
  • Discomfort and post-treatment effects like swelling and pinkness may occur.
  • Typically, it requires a series of initial treatments (three to four sessions) for optimal outcomes.
  • Should be administered by a skilled practitioner due to risks for scarring and pigmentation issues.
What to Expect
A typical Intensif RF microneedling session lasts approximately 30-45 minutes and begins with a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort. Once the treatment area is adequately numbed, the provider administers RF energy using a handpiece with single-use needle tips. While some individuals may experience discomfort during the procedure, it is generally well-tolerated, and pain management options such as injectable lidocaine or ProNox may be available for those who require additional relief.
 
Following the treatment, you may experience pinpoint bleeding, redness, and swelling, which are normal and typically subside within a day or two. Your provider will provide specific skincare instructions to promote optimal healing, including sun protection and skincare products tailored to your needs.
Recovery
Following Intensif RF microneedling treatment, side effects such as redness and swelling are common and may last up to 48 hours.
 
Peeling and breakouts can also occur as the skin heals over the following weeks. To minimize side effects, gentle cleansers and moisturizers can be used.
 
Aftercare instructions, including sunscreen application and avoiding certain skincare products, are crucial for optimal recovery.
 
Avoid makeup and working out 48hrs after treatment
 
It is important to follow these guidelines to prevent infection and promote healthy skin healing after microneedling
Results

Many report enhanced skin quality following treatment, with full benefits seen three to six months later.

Safety Profile

Intensif RF microneedling is a promising option for skin rejuvenation, offering customizable treatments for various concerns. It is not suitable for darker skin types since the needle is non insulated which carries risk of hyperpigmentation. Patients should carefully consider risks and adhere to post treatment care if they want to obtain optimal results.

Cost

$750 to $1,000 per session. Providers typically recommend three to four sessions.
