Prior to recent advances in cosmetic technology, smoothing and tightening skin, particularly the delicate skin of the face and neck, had been challenging to achieve without surgical intervention. New revolutionary non-surgical interventions, such as Genius® radiofrequency (RF) microneedling, which are based on new knowledge about the skin’s natural healing process, now provide our patients at SKNCraft with an effective, minimally invasive treatment for achieving firmer, more youthful-looking skin. FDA-approved Genius® combines two innovative techniques, microneedling and the application of radiofrequency (RF) to the deeper tissues, to achieve maximum skin improvement with each session.

BENEFITS OF GENIUS® RADIOFREQUENCY MICRONEEDLING TREATMENT

Aging, hormonal fluctuations, genetics, and sun exposure, can contribute to loss of skin elasticity, diminished firmness, and thinning of the skin. Often these changes result in sagging skin, inconsistent and crepey texture, and wrinkles. Any one of these features can have a dramatic impact on appearance, resulting in prematurely aging appearance. Once you are cleared for treatment, our trained Registered Nurses can perform the Genius® radiofrequency microneedling treatment in the following areas to stimulate tissue healing and restore firmer, smoother, more youthful-looking skin:

Face
Jawline (jowls)
Neck
Chest and décolleté
Upper arms
Knees

Precision microneedling with radiofrequency delivers thermal energy to the deep tissue of the skin (dermis). This “fractional” approach stimulates the dermis to repair itself with the production of new collagen and elastin, resulting in comprehensive rejuvenation of the treated area. Customized Genius® sessions can deliver skin improvement benefits that include:

Tighter, more lifted skin
Fewer fine lines and wrinkles
Thicker, more volumized skin in thinning areas
Reduction in the prominence of acne scars
Smoother, more even skin tone and texture

ADVANTAGES OF THE GENIUS® SYSTEM OVER MICRONEEDLING ALTERNATIVES

Together with our Medical Director, Joseph Perlman, MD, SKNCRAFT is proud to make the Genius® radiofrequency microneedling system available to appropriate patients because its revolutionary design offers the opportunity to achieve significant skin improvements. RF energy and microneedling combine to create a powerful treatment that can beautifully rejuvenate any skin type. Advantages of the Genius® system include:

Depth and energy-level customization to address specific skin needs and cosmetic goals

Compatible with all skin types and skin tones

Treatment appointments last approximately one hour

Little to no downtime necessary after treatment

Superior results and skin improvement compared to traditional microneedling pens

Treatment can be combined with other non-surgical skin rejuvenation options such as laser skin resurfacing and cosmetic injectables for optimal results

Rapid healing compared to more invasive skin rejuvenation methods

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING GENIUS® TREATMENT

Before treatment begins, a topical anesthetic cream will be applied to your cleansed skin to numb the area and help prevent discomfort. Using the Genius® handpiece and gold-insulated tip, our Registered Nurses will apply the ultra-fine microneedles across the surface of the treatment area. As the 49 microneedles gently penetrate the skin, RF energy is delivered to the tissue below, initiating the skin’s healing response. Depending on the area being treated, up to three applications may be performed in a single visit. Each application targets a particular depth of the dermis, delivering energy with precision to build layers of firm tissue. During treatment the skin might become red and small pin-pricks of blood may result from the microneedles; however, these responses are typically mild. Patients usually describe little, if any, discomfort during treatment and often say the procedure is well “worth-it,” especially once they see the full results of their Genius® session develop. The treatment process typically takes 45 minutes, with appointments lasting approximately one hour. Multiple Genius® sessions may be recommended to cover multiple areas or repeat treatment in a specific area for maximum skin improvement.

*RESULTS OF GENIUS® TREATMENT

There are two phases of results that patients usually experience after treatment with Genius®. The first results, generally improvements in skin tone and texture, can appear within one to two weeks of treatment. Over the next weeks, the deep tissue continues to heal and form new collagen and elastin, which often creates a tighter, smoother, and more lifted appearance in the treated area. Typically, optimal results are visible about two months after treatment.
