Restore SD is excited to introduce the next generation of radiofrequency microneedling. The Virtue RF by Cartessa effectively targets unwanted scars and wrinkles while it simultaneously tightens the skin with minimal downtime. This technology offers an exciting alternative and supplement to surgery and traditional lasers.
One of the major advantages of the Virtue RF is that it is colorblind – unlike lasers that have a specific target – the Virtue RF delivers energy below the epidermis to tighten skin without the risk of pigmentation problems. The Virtue RF is safe for all skin types and offers a clear benefit to those who are unable to have a more aggressive laser or chemical peels due to their skin color.
Because radiofrequency microneedling can deliver targeted energy it can accomplish what an intense laser or peel would without the downtime. Optimal results usually require multiple treatments but are fully customizable and work well with other treatment options such as laser, plasma pen, topical skin-rejuvenating serums.
How does Radiofrequency Microneedling Work?
First, let us define microneedling.
Traditional microneedling works by creating micro injuries in the skin with a special device that allows multiple small needles to penetrate at adjustable depths to stimulate a collagen response. By adding radiofrequency energy, the micro needles deliver this energy deep into the dermis. The energy provided by radiofrequency causes immediate constriction of the skin as well as increase collagen and elastin production. The Virtue RF, the latest development from the company that created Vivace, creates a big impact with minimal downtime.

What Can I expect during Virtue RF Microneedling treatment?
The Virtue RF’s precise robotic motor and gold plated needles offer a truly comfortable and customizable experience.
While at Restore SD, your skin will first be prepped with a topical numbing cream and treatment will be adjusted to maximize results and comfort. The Virtue RF experience finishes with an electro current post-treatment mask to enhance recovery. Results are immediate – you will see a visible reduction in pore size and your skin will feel tighter. This will improve as time passes, providing the best of both worlds. This in-office treatment time depends on the area being treated, but most patients find their treatment is less than 60 min and are able to return to work immediately. You may have a few days of redness or some skin flaking but the most important post-treatment is to protect your skin with sunscreen.
