EXION RF Next Generation Microneedling
There are many reasons why our skin starts developing wrinklesānatural aging, gravity, lifestyle, and genetics all play a role in how our skin changes over time. Thankfully, at Cosmetic Plastic Surgery and Wellness Club of Maryland, we offer just as many solutions for wrinkles for every patient of every skin type. Previous microneedling treatments and their effectiveness has been limited due to the inability to offer this to patients of all ethnicities and skin types or color.Ā
Exion RF microneedling has been FDA cleared to improve wrinkles, sagging skin as well as scars and acne scarring.
Wrinkles or facial rhytides appear on the surface of the skin. Some are deeper while others are more of a superficial nature, just below the dermis. Often times it can be the superficial wrinkles that are the most prominent. At our center, we are experts in the art of skin renewal by providing our patients with effective, efficient and long lasting solutions.Ā This can now be achieved with the latest and most effective and pain free microneedling solution with EXION RF microneedling.
The EXION RF microneedling treatment offers patients the most technologically advanced solution, with the least discomfort and little to no downtime.Ā Amongst a comparison of all FDA cleared microneedling devices, the EXION offers patients the newest technology among all other microneedlng treatments. For our patients, this is a quick and comfortable treatment. Patients can return right back to work or normal activities with no significant redness, swelling or tell tale signs of treatment.
This is really the ultimate breakthrough. Patients often times are hesitant about undergoing radiofrequency microneedling due to the extent of downtime with previous technologies. Furthermore the achievable results can be quantified and patients can see their levels of improvement in both wrinkles, fine lines as well as acne and other forms of scarring.
What Exion Treats
How Exion Works
Exion works by combining the thermal energy from radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound technology to stimulate your body’s collagen and elastin production. These two proteins are responsible for repairing and strengthening your skin’s cellular structure, and increasing their concentration will repair damage, improve texture issues, and reverse several signs of aging.
The use of targeted ultrasound also increases your body’s production of hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance that allows your skin to maintain healthy levels of hydration.
