Gold Needling (Fractional Microneedling)
Radio-frequency method, which is a reliable method used for many years in both aesthetic and other fields of medicine; demonstrated various progress with the development of technology. In the Fractional Gold Needling radio-frequency method, the shot is injected directly to the subcutaneous tissues through golden needles, and given to the targeted area. In Gold Needling RF application, when head of the radio frequency device with the gold needling is contacted with the skin, micro needles automatically make a sudden entry into the skin at the adjusted depth. Fractional micro-holes on the skin are formed by a large number of gold-tipped micro pins; and with radio-frequency, non-touching the skin, only sent from the needle tip, while collagen and elastin production is triggered, potential thermal damage is not given to the epidermis and superficial skin layers. The aim is to deliver the highest energy that can be given directly under the skin without damaging it. Eyelid and its surroundings, are the most active region in terms of facial expressions of our face. Since this region has a thin tissue, and an active muscle layer just below the skin; during each mimic movement (as well as exposure to the sun, aging, etc.), also causes scratches on the skin over the muscle that’s twitching such as accordion. Over time, these lines become permanent wrinkles. Some people may have wrinkles even at a young age, because their skin is light and very thin.
