PiXel8-RF

Consultations offered at our two convenient locations in Buena Park and Cupertino, CA

Pixel8-RF is a revolutionary radiofrequency microneedling treatment that fights sagging, stimulates collagen production and reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, and enlarged pores. At 17 Med Spa in Buena Park, and Cupertino we are proud to offer this effective treatment to our clients.

The Pixel8 device uses radiofrequency energy to penetrate deep into the dermis (the lower layers of your skin), stimulating the production of new collagen while also breaking down old, damaged collagen fibers. This results in smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin. And because Pixel8-RF is minimally-invasive, there’s no downtime or recovery period required – you can return to your normal activities immediately after your treatment.

At 17 Med Spa, our team of experienced professionals will work with you to create a customized treatment plan that targets your specific concerns. And whether you’re looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, smooth out acne scars, or improve the texture of your skin, we can help.

About RF Microneedling

The quest for a youthful and vibrant appearance is an ongoing journey. Aging, environmental factors, and genetics can all take a toll on our skin, leading to sagging, dullness, and wrinkles. However, advances in technology have made it possible to combat these signs of aging without the need for invasive surgery, such as the facelift. One such treatment is Pixel8-RF.

Enhanced Collagen Promotion

Collagen is a protein that gives our skin its elasticity and firmness. As we age, our body’s natural production of collagen decreases, leading to sagging and wrinkles. (1) Pixel8-RF utilizes radiofrequency technology to tighten and rejuvenate the skin. This non-surgical skin tightening treatment works by stimulating collagen production in the deep dermis layer of the skin. 

The RF energy is delivered to the skin through tiny electrodes, creating controlled heat in the area of treatment. This heat then triggers the body’s natural healing response, which includes the production of new collagen. Over time, this new collagen helps to tighten and smooth out the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Pixel8-RF offers customizable treatment options to suit each patient’s individual needs. The device features adjustable settings, allowing medical professionals at 17 Med Spa to personalize the procedure based on the patient’s skin type and aesthetic concerns.

At 17 Med Spa, we are dedicated to helping patients achieve their aesthetic goals. If you are interested in learning more about Pixel8-RF and whether it is the right treatment for you, we invite you to schedule a consultation with us today.

Candidates

If you are not ready to undergo surgery, but still want to improve the appearance of your skin, PiXel8-RF may be a great option for you. Treatment can give your skin an overall boost, or help with specific concerns such as mild skin laxity, enlarged pores, and acne scars.

While Pixel8-RF is a non-surgical alternative to traditional facelifts, it may not provide the same level of dramatic results as surgery. It is best suited for patients who are looking for subtle yet effective improvements in their skin’s appearance.

Personal Consultation

At 17 Med Spa, we offer personalized consultations to help you determine if this treatment is right for you. During your consultation, one of our experienced practitioners will take the time to understand your unique cosmetic concerns and goals. They will examine your skin and discuss your medical history to determine if PiXel8-RF will effectively address your concerns. This non-invasive treatment is suitable for a wide range of patients, but it may not be the best option for everyone. If PiXel8-RF is not recommended for you, our practitioner can suggest alternative treatments that may better suit your needs.

Preparation

To prepare for your PiXel8-RF treatment, we recommend:

  • Avoiding direct sunlight, tanning beds, and self-tanners
  • Discontinuing blood thinners, supplements, and other medications as instructed
  • Stopping your use of skin exfoliants in the week before your scheduled appointment

By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your PiXel8-RF treatment goes smoothly, and you can enjoy the best possible results.

Procedure

During the procedure, one of our experts will pass a handheld device over the designated area, delivering controlled radiofrequency energy to the deeper layers of the skin. The energy heats up the tissue, triggering a natural healing response that leads to increased collagen production and a tightening effect.

Recovery And Results

One of the biggest advantages of PiXel8-RF is its minimal downtime. Unlike traditional surgical procedures, this non-invasive treatment requires no incisions or recovery time. Patients may experience some sunburn-like redness and swelling immediately after the procedure, but this typically subsides within a few hours. We recommend avoiding sun exposure and wearing sunscreen to protect your skin while it heals. In the first 24 hours, it is also important to limit your use of skin products in the treatment area.

Our patients have reported long-lasting results from their PiXel8-RF treatments, with optimal results achieved after several sessions. You’ll love the natural-looking results that you achieve, as well as the boost in your confidence that comes with having younger-looking, radiant skin.

FAQ

What is PiXel8-RF and how does it work?

PiXel8-RF is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment that utilizes radiofrequency microneedling to stimulate collagen production in the skin. The procedure involves creating tiny microchannels in the skin with the help of small needles, which deliver radiofrequency energy deep into the treatment area. This energy heats up the dermal layer of the skin, stimulating the natural healing process of the body and promoting the growth of new collagen fibers.

Is PiXel8-RF an anti-aging treatment?

PiXel8-RF is an effective anti-aging treatment that helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging. It also works well for treating acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin texture. 

Where can PiXel8-RF be used?

The PiXel8-RF treatment can be performed on almost any part of the body, including the face, neck, chest, and hands, making it a versatile solution for many different concerns.

Is PiXel8-RF painful?

While everyone’s pain tolerance is different, most patients report experiencing only mild discomfort during the procedure. A topical anesthetic cream is applied to the treated area prior to the procedure to minimize any discomfort. After the procedure, patients may experience some redness, swelling, and tenderness in the treated area, but this usually subsides within a few days.

How long does a PiXel8-RF treatment take?

The length of the procedure depends on the size of the treated area and the severity of the skin concern being addressed. Typically, a session takes about 30 minutes to an hour to complete. Patients can schedule multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart to achieve optimal results.

When will I see results from PiXel8-RF?

Patients typically notice some improvement in their skin immediately following the procedure, with continued improvement over the next several weeks as new collagen fibers grow. Full results are usually visible about three months after the final session.

Is PiXel8-RF safe for all skin types?

Yes, PiXel8-RF is safe for all skin types and colors. Unlike some other skin rejuvenation treatments, it does not rely on light or laser energy, making it a safe option for individuals with darker skin tones. However, patients should discuss their medical history and any current medications with their provider before undergoing treatment.
