INTRAcel FAQs
-
How does INTRAcel improve skin quality and texture?
-
INTRAcel is an advanced radiofrequency microneedling treatment that combines insulated microneedles with bipolar radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production within the skin. By targeting the upper layers of the skin with precision, it can help improve skin texture, enlarged pores, acne, acne scarring, stretch marks, fine lines, and mild skin laxity, including in more delicate areas such as around the eyes.
The treatment can also help regulate excess sebum production, making it a suitable option for patients with acne-prone skin. As new collagen develops, skin can appear smoother, firmer, and more refined. Depending on individual concerns and treatment goals, many patients achieve optimal results with one or two treatment sessions.
-
What are the benefits of INTRAcel radiofrequency microneedling?
-
INTRAcel is a non-ablative radiofrequency microneedling treatment designed to stimulate collagen production while minimising disruption to the surface of the skin. By delivering radiofrequency energy below the epidermis, the treatment targets deeper skin structures where collagen remodelling occurs, helping to improve skin texture, firmness, acne scarring, enlarged pores, and other signs of skin ageing.
The treatment works by stimulating fibroblasts, the cells responsible for collagen production, supporting long-term improvements in skin quality and resilience. INTRAcel is also designed to deliver energy precisely within the skin through the expansion of the intercellular route, allowing targeted treatment of specific concerns while maintaining a high level of patient comfort.
-
Who is a suitable candidate for treatment?
-
INTRAcel may be suitable for patients looking to address concerns such as skin laxity, fine lines, acne scarring, enlarged pores, uneven texture, and other visible signs of skin ageing. By stimulating collagen production within the deeper layers of the skin, the treatment can help improve skin quality, firmness, and overall complexion.
Suitability for INTRAcel will be determined during a consultation, where your skin concerns, medical history, and treatment goals will be carefully assessed. At Dr Nyla Medispa, every treatment plan is tailored to the individual to ensure the most appropriate and effective approach for your skin.
-
Is INTRAcel a safe treatment?
-
INTRAcel is a medically approved treatment that is widely used for skin rejuvenation, acne scarring, enlarged pores, and other concerns related to skin quality. The treatment combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling technology to target deeper layers of the skin while minimising disruption to the skin surface.
At Dr Nyla Medispa, INTRAcel treatments are performed by experienced medical professionals who have received advanced training in the treatment. Every procedure is carried out within a medically regulated setting, with patient safety, clinical standards, and personalised care at the forefront of treatment planning.
-
Is the treatment painful?
-
Most patients find INTRAcel to be a comfortable and well-tolerated treatment. During the procedure, the radiofrequency energy may create a warming sensation, while the microneedling component can feel mildly prickly as it passes across the skin.
Patient comfort is carefully managed throughout treatment. A topical numbing cream is typically applied before the procedure, and additional measures such as cooling techniques may be used where appropriate. Your practitioner will discuss what to expect during your consultation and ensure the treatment is performed as comfortably as possible.
-
What are the potential side effects?
-
INTRAcel is generally well tolerated, however, as with any radiofrequency microneedling treatment, some temporary side effects can occur. The most common side effect is redness of the skin immediately following treatment, which is a normal response to the procedure.
Some patients may also experience mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising in the treated area. These effects are typically temporary and usually resolve within a few days. During your consultation, your practitioner will explain the potential risks and expected recovery process to ensure you are fully informed before treatment.
-
What aftercare is recommended following treatment?
-
Following INTRAcel treatment, it is important to protect the skin from sun exposure and use a high-factor sunscreen to support the healing process and minimise the risk of pigmentation changes. Your practitioner may also recommend appropriate skincare products to help maintain skin health and optimise treatment outcomes.
Aftercare advice will be tailored to your skin and treatment plan, and it is important to follow all instructions provided by your practitioner. Adhering to the recommended aftercare protocol can support recovery and help achieve the best possible results from your treatment.
