WHAT IS PIXEL8-RF MICRONEEDLING?
Recipient of Cosmopolitan Magazine’s “Best Skin Smoothing Treatment” Holy Grail Beauty Award in 2022, the PiXel8-RF Microneedling system is the latest in skin technology. It is a microneedling system that incorporates RF, or radio frequency helping make your skin look firmer, tighter, and smoother.the PiXel8-RF delivers thermal energy to multiple treatment areas safe and effectively.
The device uses 64 gold-coated micro-sized needles to deliver perfect precision while it emits RF energy through the skin tissue. The two methods stimulate collagen and elastin production and even break up scar matter. You may be wondering: Why does collagen matter to great skin?
SO WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL ABOUT COLLAGEN?
Like I said above, this treatment works miracles because it stimulates your skin to produce collagen. Collagen is the holy grail to youthful skin. Why?
Collagen is like the scaffolding under our skin, holding it up. As we age, we naturally lose collagen. That’s why we lose volume in our face and form wrinkles. If we help our skin naturally produce and rebuild collagen, then we create glowing, healthier, plumper skin from the inside out.
Increased collagen production is just one of the many benefits of PiXel8-RF Microneedling.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
STEP 1: Microneedle Cartridge makes perfect contact to the skin
STEP 2: Microneedles smoothly penetrate the skin with less pain
STEP 3: Bipolar RF energy denaturalizes the tissue surrounding the microneedles
STEP 4: Collagen regeneration & new elastic production process begins.
HOW IS PIXEL8-RF DIFFERENT THAN FACIAL LASER PROCEDURES?
PiXel8-RF: Safe on All Skin Types (I – VI), Easy penetration up to target area, Less risk of side effects, Controlled depth, Delivers energy directly into the target area without loss of energy
Laser: Selective laser absorption, Penetrations vary depend on absorption rate for water, hemoglobin, melanin etc., Hard to control depth, Delivering energy to target area varies depending on various, parameters such as absorption rate
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR PIXEL8-RF?
The PiXel8-RF is “color blind” and can be used on all skin types as the RF does not target the melanin in the skin Fractional RF provides significant lifting effects in a non-invasive way. RF Microneedling is THE treatment for skin of color. Unlike laser treatments. the PiXel8-RF uses only radio frequency energy. The microneedles precisely deliver the RF energy into the dermis tissue. There is virtually no thermal damage to the epidermis and almost eliminates the risk of PIH in darker skin types. Therefore. it is safe to use on all skin types and all colors of skin.
WHAT SETS PIXEL8-RF APART FROM OTHER RF MACHINES?
While most RF microneedling systems use one megahertz, Pixel8-RF uses two to deliver a higher amount of energy more quickly for noticeable results without as much discomfort. It also has a motorized foot press, which According to celebrity plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Emer is better for controlled depth and tightening. “If you're using a device with a stamper, you have to push it into the skin and it may not stamp the skin evenly and be less effective,” he explains.

WHAT’S THE DOWNTIME LOOK LIKE?
One of the best things about RF microneedling is that clients usually experience minimal to no downtime and have few restrictions following a RF microneedling treatment. The treated area may be red for up to 24 hours. However. a deeper. more aggressive treatment may be required for your desired outcome therefore downtime may increase. After the treatment. most clients will experience redness and some minor swelling. This usually subsides within 24-hours or less. After 24-hours. you may apply make-up to the treatment area. Ask your provider to give you a more accurate downtime before the procedure is done
HOW LONG WILL MY PIXEL8-RF TREATMENT TAKE?
The procedure itself takes approximately 30-minutes. However. the treatment area will need to be prepared which may take an additional 30-minutes. We set aside 90 minutes for clients so we can take breaks if needed and never feel rushed.

HOW IS THIS TREATMENT THE BEST “BANG FOR MY BUCK”?
When considering procedures for skin tightening, alternatives like a neck lift can cost around $5,000 and requires considerable downtime and potential for infection.
When looking for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation, you could expect to need multiple sessions of traditional microneedling, IPL, and chemical peels, costing upwards of $4,000 with multiple appointments and recoveries.
Other procedures for tightening skin or reducing the appearance of cellulite on the body, like traditional Radio Frequency treatments cost upwards of $2,500 for a series, and require at least 6-12 sessions, anything between twice a week to once in two weeks, are recommended for good results. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to have to go anywhere twice a week for months on end when I can just get RF Microneedling once a month until I’m satisfied with my results!
HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
Obvious results are normally seen after just 1 treatment. However, to help achieve the maximum benefit a 3-treatment series is suggested with each treatment 4-weeks apart. We offer special packages with awesome savings!
