VirtueRF Skin Remodeling Treatment: What to Expect
Depending on the size of the area to be treated, VirtueRF skin rejuvenation treatment can take between 15 minutes and an hour. For example, a full-face treatment will take approximately 30-40 minutes. While VirtueRF treatments are virtually painless, our trained aesthetic specialist will ensure your maximum comfort by applying a numbing cream to the treatment area. VirtueRF delivers energy below the skin’s surface. This allows for maximum results with the least amount of downtime. Once the entire area has been treated, your aesthetic specialist will soothe your skin with the VirtueRF post-treatment Microcurrent Dual Face Mask and give you detailed instructions on ongoing maintenance for your treated skin.
After VirtueRF Treatment: Recovery
Your VirtueRF treatment will be paired with a Microcurrent Dual Face Mask, the most innovative sheet mask available. The mask uses a unique dual system with patented Tissue X™ microcurrent technology to deliver antioxidants, vitamins, and hydration skin deep into the skin. The Microcurrent Dual Face Mask also has anti-inflammatory properties, eliminating redness and optimizing post-VirtueRF treatment healing.
After your VirtueRF treatment, your skin may be red for several hours, but you can plan to resume your normally scheduled activities immediately. Your provider may recommend no make-up for 24 hours and of course, it’s always important to use sun protection.
Immediately After
Treatment areas will be pink and may have mild redness.
3-4 Hours After
Pink tone will begin to fade as normal skin color returns.
24-48 Hours After
Patients exhibit normal skin tone and begin to see improvements in tone and texture that will continue to improve over the next 6 months.
VirtueRF Maintenance
To start, we recommend a series of 3 to 4 VirtueRF treatments, spaced between 4 and 6 weeks apart. To maintain optimal results, we recommend a treatment every six months.
VirtueRF Cost
Every patient is different and is provided with a unique treatment plan based on their specific cosmetic needs. The cost of VirtueRF is dependent on the number of treatments necessary to reach your goals. Your provider will create your personal treatment plan during your consultation.
