Genius® RF microneedling — radiofrequency energy that firms and tightens from within.
Noticing early sagging, crepey skin, or softening along the jaw?
The Genius is a powerful laser device which delivers radiofrequency through microneedles. Genius is the newest anti-aging treatment that rejuvenates the skin’s texture and tone, minimizing fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars.
This treatment is one of the few that causes deep collagen stimulation resulting in a tightening effect. Very few lasers have been able to actually tighten the skin of the neck or pull back loose jowls. The technology of delivering energy via microneedles deep in the tissue is “groundbreaking” in the aesthetic arena.
The microneedles will penetrate the skin at a very specific depth and the powerful radiofrequency energy will be delivered through microneedles. This deep energy will bypass the top layer of the skin which is important to prevent heat-generated hyperpigmentation. As a result, the energy will only be emitted at the deep dermis, generating collagen, so the skin gets tighter and smoother.
During a Genius treatment, a hand-held device will be used to create tiny, controlled punctures in your skin. Each micro-injury will trigger your body to begin the natural process of filling these wounds with newly formed collagen and elastin.
The microneedles will penetrate the skin at a very specific depth and the radiofrequency energy will be delivered through the skin. This deep energy will bypass the top layer of the skin which prevents heat-generated hyperpigmentation. As a result, the energy will only be emitted at the deep tissues – generating collagen where needed. Your skin will strengthen and become more tight and smooth.
These micro-columns are channels directly into the skin’s tissue that give us an opportunity to infuse your skin with highly-active, skin-nurturing, products. This deeper penetration yields more potent results that improve your skin texture and firmness as well as reduce scars and pore-size. A series of 2 to 3 sessions over several months yields optimal results, stimulating your skin to continuously refresh and renew.
You may be a good candidate for Genius RF Microneedling:
Although your skin condition and the treatment area will dictate the length of a microneedling treatment, it will likely be completed within 45 minutes.
Patients treated with Genius RF Microneedling often see:
You will experience 3 days of redness and swelling but can resume normal activities within 48 hours.
Genius RF combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy for deeper skin tightening. Ultra-fine needles deliver precisely controlled RF heat below the skin’s surface, remodeling collagen where laxity begins — without harming the outer skin.
Standard microneedling works mainly at the surface; adding radiofrequency lets Genius reach deeper to firm and tighten, making it ideal for early jowling, crepey skin, large pores, acne scars, and mild-to-moderate laxity of the face and neck. Its real-time feedback helps deliver energy accurately and safely across skin tones.
A series of treatments gives the best tightening, with only a day or two of redness. At ZENA Medical in Newport Beach, Genius RF is performed under board-certified dermatologist Dr. Zena Gabriel. Schedule a consultation to see if it’s right for you.
