Virtue RF
A pioneer in microneedle RF technology. Excellent efficacy in skin regeneration and elasticity improvement.
What it is
| What it is | Virtue RF is a device that directly delivers RF (radiofrequency) energy to the dermal layer of the skin via microneedles. Because it delivers energy directly to the dermis without passing through the skin surface, it strongly stimulates collagen production within the dermis while minimizing surface damage. In addition to improving elasticity, pore reduction can also be expected, and it is also used for improving acne scars. |

Frequently Asked Questions
- What makes Virtue RF different from other microneedling devices?
- Virtue RF is a microneedling RF device that delivers radiofrequency (RF) energy deep into the dermal layer via fine needles to stimulate collagen and elastin regeneration, aiming to improve pores, fine lines, skin texture, and elasticity simultaneously. At Star Dermatology in Seomyeon, Busan, suitability is discussed after a careful review of your skin condition and treatment plan.
- Does Virtue RF hurt?
- Due to the nature of needles penetrating the skin, it is generally performed after applying a topical numbing cream, and pain sensitivity may vary.
- How long is the recovery period?
- Typically, there may be mild redness or micro-crusts for about 1 to 3 days after the procedure, which generally subsides naturally thereafter.
- Can it be performed on sensitive areas like the eyelids or jawline?
- Virtue RF allows precise depth control, making it commonly utilized to improve periocular elasticity and double-chin lines.
- How many sessions are required?
- While this varies based on the degree of skin concern, treatment is commonly performed in about 3 sessions at intervals.
- How is it performed at STAR Dermatology in Busan Seomyeon?
- Prior to the procedure, skin thickness and elasticity are assessed to individually adjust needle depth and RF intensity.
