Pixel RF Skin Resurfacing in Upper West Side

PIXEL RF (Radiofrequency) technology works to contour, tighten and rejuvenate the skin. The non-invasive Pixel RF skin resurfacing and rejuvenation platform uses Micro Plasma Technology, which creates thermal injuries prompting the formation of new collagen tightening  the skin and creating a smoother appearance. Pixel RF skin resurfacing is safe for all skin types, and can be administered all year round without seasonal restrictions. The healing time for Pixel RF can be faster than other skin resurfacing treatments and the entire procedure can be performed in as little as 15 minutes. With Pixel RF’s high-energy output, it can often create optimal results in skin resurfacing with only one treatment, as opposed to multiple treatments typically required from other radiofrequency techniques.

What is Pixel RF-Micro Plasma Radio Frequency Skin Resurfacing and what is it used for?

PixelRF uses proprietary InMotion Refractive Radiofrequency Micro Plasma Technology, which both ablates and heats the skin through controlled, focused delivery of energy without using disposables.   Healthy skin around the treated area helps to accelerate the healing process thus improving results and reducing patient down time by allowing the need for just the targeted tissue to heal and collagen to strengthen.

Unlike dermal rollers or low power bi-polar RF applicators that superficially ablate and heat the skin, the Pixel RF causes evaporation, mechanical damage, and thermal damage at the dermal level of the skin, providing significant dermal impact with minimal epidermal disruption.
