Would you like firmer, more youthful skin without surgery? Radiofrequency microneedling combines two proven treatment methods to create a highly effective aesthetic dermatology procedure. At our Skinthetics practice in Düsseldorf, we offer this innovative treatment using state-of-the-art equipment and a holistic treatment concept.
Radiofrequency microneedling is suitable for a wide variety of skin areas such as the face, décolleté, arms, and body. The treatment is particularly effective for acne scars, wrinkles, and sagging skin.
The treatment stimulates the skin's natural Collagen production and provides a visible improvement in skin structure. Controlled heating of the tissue using Radiofrequency activates healing processes that lead to lasting skin improvement. Our expert, Dr. Lucija Grittern, focuses on individual treatment concepts that are specifically tailored to your needs.
Radiofrequency microneedling combines mechanical stimulation with thermal energy for optimal treatment results. Fine needles are inserted into the skin in a controlled manner while radiofrequency energy is simultaneously delivered to the tissue. This combination activates the body's own regeneration processes on several levels.
The microchannels created by Microneedling allow the radiofrequency energy to penetrate deeper skin layers in a targeted manner. There, it heats the tissue to a therapeutic temperature without damaging the skin's surface. This controlled heating stimulates fibroblasts to increase Collagen and elastin production.
The decisive advantage lies in the deep effect of the treatment. While conventional microneedling mainly reaches the superficial skin layers, radiofrequency penetrates into the dermis. This treats both superficial and deeper skin structures. The thermal energy leads to immediate collagen contraction and long-term collagen regeneration.
At our practice in Düsseldorf, we use state-of-the-art devices that enable precise temperature control and individually adjustable treatment parameters. Our specialist Dr. Lucija Grittern sets the optimal settings for each patient to ensure maximum results with a high level of safety.
Performing Radiofrequency microneedling requires in-depth medical knowledge and special qualifications. In Germany, only practices with the appropriate training are allowed to perform this treatment. The combination of invasive microneedling and energy-based therapy makes comprehensive anatomical and dermatological expertise essential.
At Skinthetics, only experienced practitioners perform the procedure. As an expert in aesthetic dermatology, Dr. Lucija Grittern has many years of experience with various radiofrequency systems and their application. Her specialization in laser treatments and aesthetic dermatology enables her to optimally tailor the treatment to individual skin types and needs.
The correct handling of the devices, the correct assessment of skin types and possible contraindications, and the treatment of any complications require medical expertise. Our team at Skinthetics attaches great importance to continuous training and the application of the latest scientific standards. This is geared towards safe and effective treatment at the highest medical level.
The Lutronic Genius system we use at Skinthetics offers state-of-the-art technology for precise and safe treatments. Intelligent temperature monitoring ensures optimal energy delivery without overheating the tissue. The system allows individual adjustments of the treatment parameters for each skin type.
Dr. Lucija Grittern has over 18 years of top-level training, from the University of Edinburgh to clinical placements in London and Charité, to international training highlights in Los Angeles and Brazil. Her expertise is backed up by specialist publications, media activities, and lectures.
Since 2018, she has been fulfilling her dream with Skinthetics, offering natural, comprehensive skin health at the highest level in Düsseldorf – with precision, empathy, and state-of-the-art aesthetic medicine.
Before each microneedling with radiofrequency treatment, Dr. Lucija Grittern conducts a detailed consultation. She analyzes your skin type, discusses your wishes, and clarifies possible contraindications. A thorough medical history is crucial for the success of the treatment and your safety.
On the day of treatment, we carefully cleanse and disinfect the area of skin to be treated. To reduce sensitivity to pain, an anesthetic cream is applied to the treatment area and left to take effect for around 30-40 minutes. This usually makes the treatment less painful and more comfortable for you.
The radiofrequency microneedling device is then calibrated and the parameters are individually adjusted to your skin. Our specialist selects the optimal needle depth and energy intensity based on the treatment area and your specific needs.
The actual treatment is carried out systematically and precisely. The handpiece is guided evenly over the treatment area, with the fine needles penetrating the skin in a controlled manner. At the same time, radiofrequency energy is emitted, which heats the tissue and triggers the desired biological processes.
During the treatment, most patients feel a slight tingling or warming sensation. Most report only minor discomfort during the session. Dr. Lucija Grittern continuously monitors the skin's reaction and adjusts the treatment parameters as needed.
Depending on the treatment area and desired result, a session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes. Our high-quality ambience ensures a relaxed atmosphere in which you can feel comfortable throughout the entire treatment.
Immediately after the treatment, slight redness and possible swelling are normal. These reactions usually subside within 24-48 hours. We provide you with special care products that support the healing process and optimize the treatment results.
In the first few days after treatment, you should avoid intense sun exposure and use a high sun protection factor. You should temporarily refrain from using aggressive care products or mechanical exfoliation. Our team will give you detailed aftercare instructions to take home with you.
Most patients require 2-4 sessions at intervals of 4-6 weeks for optimal result.
