VirtueRF Microneedling is a cutting-edge procedure that combines radiofrequency energy and microneedling to effectively treat acne scars, wrinkles, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin texture. Vida Bela Plastic Surgery offers this innovative treatment to stimulate collagen production and promote skin rejuvenation, resulting in smoother, firmer skin.
VirtueRF Microneedling combines two powerful skin rejuvenation techniques: microneedling and radiofrequency energy. During the procedure, fine needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface, stimulating the body’s natural healing response and promoting collagen production. Additionally, radiofrequency energy is delivered deep into the skin layers, further enhancing collagen production and tightening the skin. This dual-action approach effectively targets various skin concerns, resulting in smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.
VirtueRF Microneedling combines two mechanisms: microneedling and radiofrequency (RF) energy. Fine needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating the body’s wound-healing response. This triggers the production of collagen and elastin, essential proteins for skin structure and elasticity
Simultaneously, RF energy is delivered deep into the dermis, generating controlled heat to further stimulate collagen production and tighten existing collagen fibers. The results in improved skin texture, reduced wrinkles, and enhanced overall skin rejuvenation.
After the VirtueRF Microneedling, you can expect some redness and mild swelling, which typically subside within a few days. Downtime is minimal, allowing you to resume daily activities almost immediately. However, it’s crucial to avoid direct sun exposure and apply sunscreen regularly. You must also follow your provider’s aftercare guidelines, which may include gentle skincare products and avoiding harsh treatments for optimal healing.
You’ll start noticing improvements in your skin’s texture and tone within a few weeks after VirtueRF Microneedling. However, optimal results typically emerge after multiple sessions, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. The number of sessions you need depends on your specific skin concerns and desired outcomes, with most individuals benefiting from 3-4 treatments. The results can last for several months to over a year with proper skincare maintenance.
VirtueRF Microneedling is generally well-tolerated, with most individuals experiencing minor discomfort. To minimize discomfort, topical numbing cream is applied before the procedure.
The duration of a VirtueRF Microneedling session typically ranges from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treated area and specific concerns being addressed.
After the procedure, minor side effects like redness, swelling, and mild discomfort can be expected. These usually subside within a few days. Serious complications are rare.

You may start noticing improvements in your skin’s texture and tone within a few weeks after the procedure. However, optimal results typically develop gradually over several weeks to months following a series of treatments as your body produces new collagen fibers.
