What else can Profound® RF do?

Cellulite and submental fat (aka “double chin”) can also be effectively treated with Profound® microneedling radiofrequency. In clinical trials, Profound® RF yielded a 100% response rate for treatment of wrinkles and cellulite, and a 95% response rate for treatment of laxity, which means that nearly every single patient experienced significant improvement over baseline.

Profound® RF for Your Face and Neck:

• Profound® RF is a Health Canada approved non-surgical treatment for deep lines, wrinkles, laxity, and sagging skin. The result is lifting, tightening and the restoration of a youthful, supple fullness in your lower face and neck.
• Profound® RF treatment addresses your cheek, lip, frown and ‘marionette’ lines, enlarged pores, jowls, and sagging skin across the lower face, jaw and neck.
• Profound® RF is effective in reversing signs of aging which can make us look older than we are, or give us the appearance of looking sad or angry when we are not.

100% of patients treated with Profound® RF experienced improvement, with average improvements of 37% for skin laxity (sagging and crepiness) and 26% for wrinkles when compared to the results expected of a surgical facelift.

Profound® RF for Your Body:

• Profound® RF is a Health Canada approved non-surgical treatment for cellulite of the buttocks, hips and thighs, reducing the “pebbly” appearance characteristic of cellulite and improving irregular contours.
• Profound® RF is also Health Canada approved for the treatment of stubborn areas of localized fat, such as “double chin.”
• Profound® RF is effective in treating skin laxity on areas of the body such as arms and tummy, where the skin begins to sag due to aging, pregnancy or weight loss.

How does Profound® RF Work?

• A combination of microneedles and radiofrequency is utilized to deliver thermal energy exactly where it is most beneficial – into the deep dermis to treat skin laxity and wrinkles, or into the fatty tissue to treat submental fullness and cellulite.
• With precision and control, the tissue is heated to a specific temperature for a prescribed duration – this exact dose is proven to best trigger a response beneath the skin’s surface.
• The energy triggers a healing response which stimulates the production of all three building blocks essential for skin smoothness and suppleness –collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.
• The heating of the fat layer destroys the fat cells and tightens the sub-dermis- the skin under the surface which is pebbly and loose.

Profound® RF works to rebuild your natural skin structure by generating new collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.

Why is Profound® RF Different?

• Profound® RF technology is unique- it has the ability to both treat aging skin and reduce fat.
• Profound® RF penetrates the deep dermis using microneedling rather than the superficial layers of the skin, exactly where the energy delivery is proven most effective.
• Almost all patients can be treated, regardless of skin type, tone, or colour.
• Unlike laser and other energy modalities, patients can be treated at any time of the year –even with suntanned skin.
• The dose and depth of the RF delivery triggers your body’s own production of all three building blocks needed to keep your skin smooth and supple – collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid

What you can Expect with your Profound® RF Treatment.

• Patient comfort is managed with topical and/or injectable numbing with lidocaine.
• The procedure takes about an hour or more depending on the area(s) treated.
• It is minimally invasive with little downtime. The most common side effect is bruising, the severity of which differs from patient to patient and lasts on average 5-10 days. Certainly, measures can be taken to reduce the risk of bruising. This will be discussed at your consultation.
• Other effects include possible redness, warmth and swelling, lasting 1-2 days. Temporary changes to skin sensation can also occur during healing.
• The new collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid production begin in the following weeks and months as your body begins the subdermal remodelling process. Visible benefits are typically seen at the 3 months and build over the next 3-6 months.
