PiXel8 Microneedling is the latest cosmetic procedure proven to make your body stimulate new and strong collagen. It is a non-laser, non-surgical treatment for Skin which causes stimulates collagen production and fresh, new tissue. Offering minimal downtime and pain regardless of skin type. The PiXel8-RF combines the latest advancement in Micro-Needling and Radio Frequency (RF) technologies.
The treatment combined minimally invasive microneedles with a Radio Frequency system that will disperse the needles within the dermis. This produces dramatic skin tightening and skin rejuvenation and can be used on all areas of the body. Needle penetration to the skin acts to create a channel for growth factors and other topical substances to reach deeper layers of the skin. The new boost of collagen thickens the skin and softens the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
