Microneedling
The Potenza® microneedling treatment uses ultrafine needles and radiofrequency (RF) energy to penetrate skin causing targeted stimulation, enhancing skin revitalization versus microneedling alone. This process, coupled with RF triggers our skin’s natural healing process regenerating new collagen and elastin production for tighter, firmer, and more smooth and youthful functioning skin. Whether your goal is to tighten and firm, minimize signs of aging, improve complexion, scaring, or stretchmarks you’ll unleash your skin’s potential after only a few treatments. The best part, this treatment can be performed on all skin types, anywhere on the body at anytime of year! We have packages available to allow our patients to trReat to taRget, at Renova Med Spa we want to meet your skin goals!
We also have combination treatments available to incorporate treatments like the Tempsure Envi® and our ICON® laser!
To further results you can opt to add the New Cellular Treatment FactorTM vial to your individual treatment or the entire course. For a more aggressive treatment plan maybe our Renova Rising treatment is for you?
