The Fractora treatment by InMode is a radiofrequency procedure that distinguishes itself from traditional radiofrequency treatments. By using micro-needles that penetrate deep into the skin to deliver radiofrequency, this treatment combines both surface skin resurfacing and deep tissue coagulation.
By delivering radiofrequency in a controlled manner, this fractional ablative treatment promotes remodeling and collagen production, leading to skin tightening and a younger, firmer appearance. This treatment is particularly favored for the lower eyelids, mouth area, cheeks, and neck.
It helps to:
- Reduce skin irregularities
- Treat wrinkles and fine lines
- Improve skin tone
- Firm the skin
- Improve active or residual acne lesions (including scars)
- Achieve a younger, firmer, and smoother-looking skin.
Result of Radiofrequency with Micro-needles
The total duration for this treatment is approximately 1 and a half hours, including the preparation period with numbing gel. The recovery period is usually 2 to 4 days. During this time, symptoms such as swelling, redness, burning sensations, and dryness may be observed. It is recommended to apply an antibiotic ointment for the first 2 days, and makeup can be resumed after 2 days. For optimal results, it is recommended to follow a protocol of 4 treatments, spaced 6 weeks apart.
Procedure
- The skin is first cleansed.
- Numbing gel is applied to the treatment areas for 45 minutes before the procedure.
- The gel is removed, and the skin is disinfected.
- The Fractora applicator with sterile micro-needles is then applied repeatedly to the skin to cover all areas to be treated.
- Soothing gel is applied at the end of the treatment.
