VirtueRF Rancho Cucamonga

Consultations offered at our seven convenient locations in Brea, Costa Mesa, Glendora, Lancaster, Rancho Cucamonga, Whittier and West Hollywood

VirtueRF is a versatile, minimally invasive skin rejuvenation device that effectively – and quickly – erases irregularities from your complexion. From uneven brown spots called melasma to the flushing appearance and coarse texture of rosacea, VirtueRF can restore your skin to its innate, youthful condition.

By using radio-frequency (RF) charged microneedles, VirtueRF creates “micro-injuries” in the dermis. These tiny punctures fool your skin cells into believing an injury has actually occurred and trigger the body’s healing response.[1] Suddenly, a wave of restorative growth factors and proteins are inbound to improve your complexion’s imperfections. To ensure a greater response of restorative chemicals, the RF thermal energy radiates deep in the dermis, causing fibroblast cells to instantly release new collagen.[2] This instantaneous reaction is what leads many of our clients at Skin Perfect Medical Aesthetics to see results as soon as they leave our care. 

Located in our new, beautiful offices in Rancho Cucamonga, we are eager to show what VirtueRF can do for your appearance. If you would like to see a rejuvenated you, schedule a personal consultation today!

Collagen: The Vital Protein

While many new supplements, lotions, and skincare products include collagen, the fibrous protein – and its invigorating properties – often aren’t well understood. Collagen, a strong, flexible protein, is found in our bones, muscles, tendons, and dermis. It’s so prevalent that collagen makes up 70-80% of our skin.[3] Collagen helps our skin remain elastic, moisturized, and fit enough to battle signs of aging caused by sun exposure, hormonal changes, or lack of hydration. But gradually, our collagen receptors weaken, causing our skin to lose its smooth texture, its even pigmentation, and its youthful bounce. By 50, we can lose up to 30% of our collagen.[4] This loss of collagen can be detrimental to our skin’s uniform complexion and glow. 

But with VirtueRF, we can reignite those semi-dormant collagen receptors and target specific cumbersome areas with the device’s versatile design.

Why VirtueRF

The Most Versatile

Using the SmartRF Handpiece, the trained expert technicians at Skin Perfect can use this versatile device to treat different size areas on your skin. From small, hard-to-reach areas like the upper lip to broader regions of the face like the cheeks, the SmartRF handpiece makes VirtueRF the leading candidate in Rancho Cucamonga for your cosmetic desires. 

Robotically Controlled

With the depths of the microneedles being robotically controlled and delivered, you can expect a uniform approach when you choose VirtueRF. While other microneedling devices rely on humans to gauge the proper depth of the needles, VirtueRF uses a robotically controlled device to perfectly place the needles into the correct zone in the dermis for your treated condition. Some complexion conditions need a superficial penetration, while others require deeper access to the dermis. 

No Downtime

Because VirtueRF is only minimally invasive, you will be free to resume your routine the minute you step foot outside of our offices. As the triggered collagen receptors and healing response work subtly in the background, you can continue life as your skin is rejuvenated from the inside out.

Post-Care Instructions

Please choose care instructions based on your location.

Costa Mesa Instructions

  • Day of treatment: Apply serum every two hours post treatment. DO NOT touch face/wash face day of treatment. Apply a layer of product advised by your provider on your skin prior to sleeping. The morning after your treatment, wash your face, apply a gentle moisturizer and an SPF of 30 or greater. Consult with your microneedling practitioner for your personalized skin care regimen.
  • Severity of erythema/redness will depend on how aggressive the session was performed.
  • Day 2: A red or pink hue persists, similar to a moderate sunburn. Swelling may be more noticeable on the second day.
  • Days 3, 4 and 5: Skin can be pink or simply remain normal in color. Swelling subsides, dryness and slight flaking may occur
  • HYDRATE – Following your microneedling session, the skin may feel drier than normal. Moisturizers containing hyaluronic acid are ideal to hydrate and restore the skin to a normal balance.
  • STIMULATE – In the days following your microneedling session, as the skin starts to become rehabilitated, your microneedling practitioner may offer a growth factor based topical product. A regimen of products containing growth factors and stem cells will increase desired outcomes. 
  • MAKEUP – It is recommended that makeup is not applied for 12 hours after the session. Makeup can be worn the day after your microneedling treatment. Do not apply any makeup with a makeup brush, especially if it is not clean. Wash your hands before touching your face to apply makeup. 
  • Use gentle products for the first 5 days post treatment. On day 5, a gentle scrub can be used to relieve any residual dryness or flaking. Retin-A, Hydroquinone, AHA/BHA treatments and acne regimens can be resumed 1 week post radiofrequency microneedling if the skin has healed.

 The results take at least 4-8 weeks to appear …. But realize a treatment series will get you closer to your desired result.

A series of 3-5 Radiofrequency Microneedlings done monthly can help you get your best results.
