RF lifting

RF-lifting — a modern hardware method for improving the elasticity, density, and quality of the skin using radiofrequency energy.

At the "Dobrobut" clinic, two types of RF-lifting are available: classic RF-lifting and micro-needling RF-lifting with the Virtue device.

Both methods use radiofrequency energy, but their principles of action differ. That is why the doctor selects the technology depending on the condition of the skin, the area, and the desired result.

Micro-needling RF-lifting with Virtue — precise influence at a specified depth. Micro-needling RF-lifting with Virtue combines two types of effects — controlled micro-punctures and radiofrequency energy.

Special micro-needles are introduced into the skin at a specified depth, after which RF-energy is delivered directly to the tissues. This allows the doctor to work not only with the surface of the skin but also to target deeper layers of the dermis. One of the main advantages of Virtue is the ability to individually adjust the parameters of the procedure depending on the area, skin thickness, and specific aesthetic problem.

Micro-needling RF helps: improve skin elasticity and density; make facial contours clearer; reduce the visibility of wrinkles; enhance skin texture and relief; reduce enlarged pores; correct post-acne manifestations; improve the appearance of atrophic scars; reduce local skin laxity; improve the quality of skin on the neck and décolleté. Virtue is particularly valuable when it is necessary to work not only with skin tone but also with its texture, relief, and local imperfections.

Classic RF-lifting — a comfortable impact without punctures. During classic RF-lifting, radiofrequency energy warms the tissues without disrupting the integrity of the skin. This method is suitable for patients who want to improve the tone and elasticity of the skin without invasive effects and virtually no recovery period.

Classic RF can be applied to the face, neck, and décolleté, as well as to the body — abdomen, arms, thighs, buttocks, and other areas showing signs of skin laxity.

What is the difference between classic and microneedle RF?

Classic RF works by controlled heating of tissues through the surface of the skin. This is a comfortable procedure for maintaining skin tone, firmness, and quality.

Microneedle RF Virtue delivers radiofrequency energy directly into the skin at a specified depth. Thanks to the microneedles, the impact can be made more precise and intense.

Therefore, microneedle RF is often chosen when there is a need to address wrinkles, sagging, uneven texture, enlarged pores, post-acne, scars, and localized areas that require targeted correction.

Classic RF is more suitable for patients who want to improve skin tone and firmness without injections and downtime.

How does the Virtue procedure go?

Before the procedure, the doctor assesses the condition of the skin, determines the correction areas, and selects individual impact parameters. The skin is cleansed and treated with an antiseptic. Local anesthesia may be applied if necessary. Next, the doctor performs the Virtue manipulation on the designated areas. The microneedles are introduced at the specified depth, after which RF energy is delivered. After the procedure, redness, swelling, and a feeling of warmth may occur. The severity of the reaction depends on the chosen parameters and individual skin characteristics.

Why Virtue RF at "Dobrobut"?

The Microneedling RF Virtue is an opportunity to work more precisely and personally with skin quality. The procedure is performed by a dermatologist who selects the depth and parameters of the treatment according to the area and condition of the skin.

At "Dobrobut," the doctor can also determine which type of RF lifting will be optimal: classic RF for comfortable improvement of tone and elasticity, or Microneedling RF Virtue for more precise work with the structure and texture of the skin.

Not every skin requires the same RF.

That’s why the optimal method, parameters, and number of procedures are determined individually by the doctor after a consultation.
