An FDA-cleared minimally invasive fractional radiofrequency device, PiXel8-RF delivers dramatic skin tightening and skin rejuvenation by dispersing micro-needles deep within the dermis. It can be used on any area of the body. PiXel8-RF was designed with the latest advancements in Microneedling and Radio Frequency (RF) Technologies to ensure minimal downtime and reduced discomfort regardless of skin type.
How Does RF Microneedling Work?
Thermal energy is delivered deep into the dermis to stimulate collagen and essentially “shrink wrap” the lower layers of your skin which provides a tightening effect while breaking up pigment, boosting volume and brightening overall.
What Does It Feel Like?
A topical numbing cream is applied for one hour before treatment. Clients report mild to moderate discomfort in some areas with no discomfort in others. Pixel8-RF Microneedling treatments take between 45 to 90 minutes depending on the size of the area.
Is There Downtime?
In comparison to other RF Microneedling treatments, Pixel8-RF is considered to be more tolerable with significantly less downtime overall. The downtime following a Pixel8-RF Microneedling treatment will vary from client to client, with some experiencing mild to moderate redness in the days following. A grid formation may appear where the needles entered the skin which can last 1-3 days. Occasional breakouts can occur. Results begin to form in 2 weeks with final results at 6 weeks.
How Often Should I Get This Service?
In the beginning we recommend 4 treatments spread 4-6 weeks apart with maintenance treatments 1-2 times a year.
How Do I Prepare for My Treatment?
Exfoliating treatments must be avoided for at least two weeks before. Discontinue retinol use for three days prior.
How Do I Care for My Skin Afterwards?
Avoid cleansing with hot water. No workouts for 24 hours. Makeup should not be worn during the healing process. Suncreen all day! Want to boost your results? Book a Jet Peel facial the week after and nourish those baby cells on their way up to the surface of the skin!
