What is Virtue RF Microneedling?
Virtue RF microneedling is a non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy.
How Does it Work?
The Virtue RF device uses a handpiece with fine, insulated needles that penetrate the skin’s top layer to create controlled micro-injuries. This process triggers the body’s wound-healing response, increasing the production of new collagen and elastin.
Simultaneously, the gold-plated needles deliver RF heat energy deep into the dermis (the underlying layer of skin). The heat causes existing collagen fibers to contract, providing an immediate tightening effect, while further amplifying the long-term collagen and elastin regeneration.
What can Virtue RF be used to Treat?
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scarring
- Enlarged pores
- Skin laxity
- Uneven skin tone
What can I Expect from a Virtue RF Microneedling Treatment?
The treatment area is cleansed and a topical anesthetic is applied.
The microneedling device is used to create punctures in the skin while delivering RF energy.
A soothing mask may be applied to reduce redness and inflammation. Some redness and swelling may occur after the treatment, which typically resolves within a few days. While some immediate results like skin tightening and a healthy glow may be visible, the most significant improvements appear over several weeks to months as new collagen is generated. For optimal, long-lasting results, a series of 3 to 4 treatments is typically recommended.
Am I a Candidate for Virtue RF Microneedling Treatments?
Ideal candidates for Virtue RF are those who want to improve signs of aging, skin texture, or scarring with a minimally invasive procedure. This includes individuals with concerns like fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, uneven skin tone, and mild to moderate skin laxity. Virtue RF is also suitable for all skin types and tones, including darker skin tones, because it is not a laser treatment.
