Microfirm

Treatment Description

Microfirm combines bipolar radiofrequency (RF), precision microneedling, and AQ Cell Regulator growth factors for deep tissue tightening. It creates controlled micro-injuries that deliver heat to the dermis, forcing collagen contraction and long-term fibre remodelling.

What to Expect

  • Numbing: Topical numbing is applied for 30–45 minutes prior.
  • The Procedure: Microneedles deliver RF energy into the dermis, stimulating a sustained healing cascade.
  • Results: Immediate tightening begins early, with optimal firming developing over 2–6 months as new collagen matures.

Benefits

  • Face: Tightens jowls, reduces wrinkles, and shrinks pores.
  • Body: Firms loose skin on the neck, arms, and stomach while addressing cellulite and stretch marks.
  • Versatility: Suitable for delicate areas like the eyes and lips.
  • Safety: RF delivery bypasses surface heat, making it safe for all skin tones.

Preparation Instructions

  • Supplements: Avoid blood thinners/fish oil for 5–7 days prior.
  • Skincare: Discontinue retinoids and AHAs for 3–5 days prior.
  • Sun Exposure: Avoid tanning for at least one week.

Aftercare

  • ⚠️ Crucial Rule: Do not pick, scratch, or pressure the skin; maintain strict SPF 30+ usage.
  • Day of: Keep skin clean and calm; avoid active products.
  • Days 2–5: Gentle hydration only; avoid saunas and strenuous exercise.

FAQ

Is it painful?
Minimal; numbing cream is used, and clients usually report a mild warmth or prickling.
How is this different from standard microneedling?
It adds RF thermal energy for structural contraction, whereas standard microneedling relies solely on the wound-healing response.
Is it safe for all skin types?
Yes; the delivery of energy directly into the dermis avoids surface damage risks.
