RF Microneedling – Potenza
Revolutionizing Enhanced Topical Penetration
The Potenza microneedling treatment is a customizable solution that’s designed for you. Whether you want to tighten and firm your skin, minimize the common signs of aging or reduce blemishes, you’ll unleash your skin’s potential after only a few treatments.
The Potenza microneedling treatment uses ultrafine needles and radiofrequency (RF) energy to penetrate the top layer of the skin and trigger the body’s natural healing process to regenerate new collagen and elastin. Unlike some other skin revitalization treatments, these treatments can be performed on all skin types, anywhere on the body and anytime of the year.
We are also proud to offer the Zimmer MedizinSystems Cryo cold air device, which minimizes pain and thermal injury during laser and dermatological treatments. Please speak to our experts about how this device can make your experience more enjoyable.
How Does It Work?
Potenza adds the element of radiofrequency energy to the traditional microneedling procedure. Microneedling with the Potenza can help address the most common aesthetic concerns because of the added benefit of advanced radiofrequency technology. Potenza is the new gold standard of radiofrequency microneedling.
Potenza delivers thermal energy to the deeper tissue area of the dermis causing tissue contraction. The energy/heat also triggers the body to produce collagen and elastin, resulting in skin tightening through soft-tissue coagulation.
First, the microneedle tip is placed on the epidermis with gentle pressure.
Next, microneedles penetrate the tissue. There are numerous settings for depth of treatment.
Then, monopolar or bipolar energy is directly applied to the targeted area.
Finally, collagen remodeling and elastin strengthening begins to happen.

Skin Revitalization
The Potenza microneedling treatment can be used to repair and revitalize skin on the face and body. Common signs of aging can be softened and minimized with the right treatment plan tailored to your needs. Skin Revitalization targets fine lines, wrinkles, and skin affected by sun damage.
Skin Resurfacing
Skin tone and texture can be affected by a number of factors, including scarring, acne scars, and stretch marks. The Potenza microneedling treatment is able to target problem areas at different depths of the skin for the ideal treatment solution for you. Within a number of weeks, the effects of treatment will begin to show.
Frequently Asked Questions
Radio Frequency (RF) is part of the electromagnetic spectrum characterized by a specific frequency measurable in Hertz (Hz). RF energy produces a change in the electrical charges of the treated skin creating an electron movement.
Studies have shown that skin cooling with the Cryo 6 cold air device reduces patients’ pain and sensitivity. Unlike other cooling methods, such as contact cooling, cryogen spray, or ice packs, the Cryo 6 can cool the epidermis before, during, and after treatment. As a result, treatments can be tolerated significantly better.
