Profound RF
A lot of things in our lives change as we get older. Some of these changes we may be ready and excited for, such as retirement, while others we try to delay as long as possible. The signs of aging on our face and body are some of the more unwelcome changes we experience throughout the years, but now you can age on your own terms with Profound RF. Available at Lucienne Salon Spa Boutique in South Jordan, Utah, Profound RF is a revolutionary laser treatment that renews your skin from within. As an energy-based solution for numerous skin concerns, with Profound RF, you can look as young as you feel by reducing the signs of aging without harsh chemicals or surgery.
What is Profound RF?
Profound RF is an innovative laser treatment that combines microneedling with advanced radiofrequency (RF) energy for deep rejuvenation that firms, tightens and tones the skin. A handheld device equipped with ultrafine microneedles and patented technology, Profound RF delivers radiofrequency waves at a precise depth and temperature to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin. This activates the body’s natural healing process and stimulates collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid production, the three components responsible for keeping skin supple and healthy. The result is smoother, younger-looking skin in just one treatment.
Am I a Good Candidate for Profound RF?
Profound RF is an extremely versatile treatment that can address numerous concerns on both the face and body, making it ideal for a wide range of patients. Unlike other laser treatments that use light-based energy, Profound RF uses radiofrequency waves and is safe for all skin types, including darker tones. If you experience any of the following skin-related concerns, you may be a good candidate for a Profound RF treatment.
- Restore age-related volume loss
- Reduce fine lines, wrinkles and creases
- Improve the appearance of cellulite
- Reverse skin laxity or sagging
- Minimize acne scars and other blemishesv
Profound is commonly used on the face and neck, but can also be used to treat other areas such as the chest, thighs, buttocks and abdomen. If you’re experiencing these or other signs of aging and want to revitalize your appearance without invasive surgery, the skincare professionals at Lucienne Salon Spa Boutique can help you determine if Profound RF is right for you during an in-person consultation.
What is the Treatment Like?
Before your Profound RF treatment, our team will develop a personalized treatment plan to determine your specific concerns and help you meet your aesthetic goals. When you arrive for your appointment, a local anesthetic will be applied to your skin before proceeding to ensure a comfortable experience. Your provider will then maneuver the Profound RF handpiece across your treatment area, where the ultrafine microneedles will penetrate the skin and allow the radiofrequency waves to reach the deeper dermal layers, where they will be the most beneficial. During your treatment, your provider can monitor the skin’s temperature and adjust the laser for optimal control and precision, allowing for reliable results tailored to your skin’s unique properties. Treatments generally take about an hour, but this varies from patient to patient, depending on the specific concerns being addressed.
After your Profound RF treatment, you can resume all normal activities, but makeup and similar products should be avoided for the first 24 hours. You may experience some swelling, redness or bruising in treated areas, but these effects are temporary and will begin to subside over the next few days. Since Profound RF is a minimally-invasive, nonsurgical procedure, the recovery is generally mild with few side effects and easy to manage.
What Kind of Results Can I Expect?
Profound RF renews your skin from within, so results will take some time to develop. Your skin will begin producing new collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid immediately after your treatment, however, and noticeable improvements will appear in about four weeks. Results will continue to develop over the next few months. Your skin will become firmer, smoother, and more toned, with fewer folds or sagging in treated areas. Profound RF also creates a lifting effect to combat volume loss for a more youthful appearance. You will only need one treatment and results have been shown last for several years, making Profound RF a favorite among both patients and providers.
