For those struggling with acne scars, finding an effective solution that restores smooth, even skin can be challenging. Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) technology to stimulate natural collagen production, smooth out uneven texture, and visibly reduce acne scars.
This minimally invasive treatment is highly effective and customizable, making it an ideal choice for individuals looking to address acne scars and rejuvenate their skin.
At VIDASKIN, we use the Potenza RF Microneedling device to treat acne scars.
What is Potenza RF Microneedling?
Potenza RF Microneedling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy. During the treatment, tiny needles create micro-channels in the skin while delivering controlled RF energy to deeper skin layers.
The dual action stimulates collagen and elastin production, helping to smooth out scars, reduce wrinkles, and improve overall skin texture.
Unlike traditional microneedling, Potenza’s RF energy allows for deeper penetration and more effective collagen stimulation, particularly useful for treating scars. With Potenza’s adjustable settings, practitioners can personalize each session, tailoring depth and RF energy to target specific areas and meet each client’s skin needs.
Why Potenza RF Microneedling is Effective for Acne Scars
Acne scars are typically formed when breakouts penetrate deep into the skin, damaging collagen and leaving behind indented marks or uneven texture. Potenza RF Microneedling addresses this by promoting natural skin healing from the inside out:
1. Deep Collagen Stimulation: The RF energy delivered by Potenza penetrates deeper into the skin than traditional microneedling alone, triggering the body’s natural healing response. This leads to increased collagen production, which helps fill in scar indentations, smooth out rough texture, and restore a more even complexion.
2. Controlled, Targeted Treatment: Potenza’s adjustable needles and RF levels allow for precise treatment of scars without affecting surrounding skin. This makes it highly effective for treating areas of acne scarring, creating smoother, more uniform results.
3. Reduction of Redness and Hyperpigmentation: Potenza RF Microneedling can also help reduce post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and redness that often accompany acne scars, further improving skin tone and texture.
4. Non-Surgical with Minimal Downtime: Potenza RF Microneedling is a minimally invasive, non-surgical option with little downtime, making it suitable for those seeking effective scar treatment without prolonged recovery.

What to Expect During a Potenza RF Microneedling Treatment
Potenza RF Microneedling is a quick and comfortable procedure that takes about 30-45 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Here’s a step-by-step look at what to expect:
- Consultation and Skin Assessment: Before treatment, a consultation is conducted to assess your skin type, scar depth, and goals. This allows the practitioner to customize settings for optimal results.
- Preparation: A topical numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort throughout the procedure.
- RF Microneedling Process: The Potenza device uses ultra-fine needles to create micro-channels in the skin while delivering RF energy to the targeted depth. This dual action stimulates collagen production in the deeper layers, promoting scar reduction and skin renewal.
- Aftercare Instructions: After the treatment, your practitioner will provide guidance on how to care for your skin in the following days. This typically includes avoiding direct sun exposure, using a gentle moisturizer, and refraining from applying makeup for 24 hours.

How Many Sessions Are Needed for Best Results?
While some people notice improvements after a single session, a series of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart is generally recommended for the best results with acne scars.
The exact number of sessions will depend on the severity of the scars and individual skin response. Regular treatments maximize collagen production, leading to smoother, more even skin over time.
Potenza RF Microneedling is a highly effective, minimally invasive option for treating acne scars, providing smoother, more even skin with natural-looking results. With the added benefit of customizable settings, Potenza can address individual scar types and skin needs, making it an ideal choice for clients looking for effective acne scar treatment without surgery.
