How Does Fractora Radiofrequency Microneedling Treat the Skin? How It Works
Fractora radiofrequency microneedling uses fractional RF energy and microneedles to create micro-injuries in the dermis, activating the skin's self-repair mechanism to reorganize and generate new collagen, addressing fine lines, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, skin laxity, and more.
Key Takeaways
- Fractora radiofrequency microneedling delivers fractional RF energy through microneedles to create thermal injury in the dermis, activating collagen reorganization and new collagen production.
- The technique can simultaneously address fine lines, wrinkles, mild skin laxity, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and active acne.
- The RF heat can shrink sebaceous glands, providing a supportive improvement for active acne, including cystic acne.
- Fractora is suitable for all skin types and can be used on the face, neck, and any body area as a non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment.
- ID Cosmetic Clinic is located in Markham; treatments are performed personally by Dr. Dan Xu (MD, CCFP), with bilingual English-Chinese consultations available.
Direct Answer
Fractora is a non-surgical radiofrequency (RF) microneedling aesthetic treatment. Its core principle is to insert fine microneedles into the skin down to the dermis while simultaneously delivering fractional RF energy, creating controlled micro-injuries and a thermal effect in the dermis. This dual stimulation triggers the skin's natural repair response: existing collagen contracts and reorganizes, fibroblasts are activated to synthesize new collagen, and the rate of cell turnover increases. The results include firmer skin, a more even tone, and reduced fine lines and wrinkles. In addition, the RF heat can shrink sebaceous gland openings, helping to improve active and cystic acne, and it has documented clinical use for acne scars, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation, and mild laxity. The technique is suitable for all skin types and can be used on the face, neck, and other body areas. In Markham and the Greater Toronto Area, ID Cosmetic Clinic offers Fractora radiofrequency microneedling, performed personally by Dr. Dan Xu (MD, CCFP), who combines an understanding of both North American aesthetics and Asian facial structure to create individualized plans; the clinic has now accumulated more than 80,000 treatment-area cases.
Fractora Radiofrequency Microneedling
Why choose ID Cosmetic Clinic?
How Fractora Radiofrequency Microneedling Works:
Fractora uses fractional radiofrequency to coagulate tissue and stimulate collagen production. This improves skin quality, delivering a more even skin tone and a more youthful appearance, and is suitable for all skin types. Fractora also produces very good results in treating acne scars and active acne (even cystic acne).
As a non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment, Fractora delivers radiofrequency energy below the surface of the skin through microneedles. The Fractora RF device creates micro-injuries in the dermis and heats the skin through fine microneedles and fractionated radiofrequency energy.
This triggers the skin’s self-healing response, reorganizing existing collagen, stimulating the production of more collagen, and increasing the rate of cell turnover. The skin becomes firmer and the tone more even. In addition, it helps reduce breakouts by shrinking the skin’s oil glands.
Because this treatment generally promotes healthy new skin, it can effectively address many concerns, including fine lines and wrinkles, mild sagging, scars, stretch marks, hyperpigmentation, and even active acne.
Although it is most commonly used on the face and neck, Fractora microneedling can also treat any other area of the body.
