The texture and tone of the skin can change as time passes, influenced by ageing, lifestyle and environmental conditions. Facial concerns such as red veins, acne, acne scarring, enlarged pores, lines and wrinkles, skin laxity and uneven texture and tone can affect the appearance and give a look that is tired. INTRAcel is a treatment that can improve these conditions by combining radiofrequency with microneedling techniques to resurface the skin and improve the quality of the underlying tissues.

This treatment can be adapted to target different depths of the skin, depending on the type of condition it is addressing. A series of microneedles are applied to the skin’s surface, which delivers radiofrequency heat energy to the unhealthy or damaged tissues, without harming any of the healthy ones. The tiny micro-wounds, along with the heat to the deeper levels will kick-start the body’s need to heal and repair, as well as stimulating the collagen fibres to tighten and firm the skin.
When tackling acne prone skin, INTRAcel can decrease the production of sebum and destroy the bacteria responsible for contributing to breakouts. When acne has left scarring behind and areas of skin discolouration, INTRAcel can improve its appearance through the increase of collagen and elastin levels in the skin.
Successful results for tightening sagging skin, reducing the appearance of lines and wrinkles, shrinking enlarged pores, and improving acne and acne scarring can be produced safely and effectively with little pain and minimal downtime. Improving the tone and texture of the skin can give you the confidence to face the world, knowing your skin is smooth, radiant and youthful.

Light Touch Clinic will require you to attend a pre-treatment consultation, in order to assess your suitability for this treatment. It may not be recommended for you if you are pregnant or breastfeeding or have underlying skin issues such as: infections, bleeding disorders or a history of poor healing and scarring.
In order for the INTRAcel procedure to be carried safely and effectively, it is important that it is undertaken by a trained professional, such as the practitioners at Light Touch Clinic. This is because the treatment can be adapted to target various depths of the skin, according to the concern it is aimed at addressing.
Light Touch Clinic will advise the application of a topical numbing cream, prior to the Treatment. This is to minimise any discomfort that the micro-injections may produce. Many patients describe feeling a slight prickling sensation while the treatment is in progress. The device is fitted with cooling technologies, to help maintain a tolerable level of comfort.
To achieve maximum results Light Touch Clinic may recommend a series of 3 treatments, undertaken 4 – 6 weeks apart. The results will develop gradually and improve further as the treatment course progresses. The skin will need to be protected in the few weeks that follow, ensuring a suitable SPF is applied, daily. The results may be fully developed at around 6 months, lasting up to 2 years, when a follow-up treatment can be arranged.
Skin sensitivity and pin-point bleeding is a normal side effect and usually settles within a few hours of treatment. Any swelling or redness has often subsided within 1 or 2 days and any bruising can easily be covered. Light Touch Clinic will ensure they discuss all potential side effects or risks, during your pre-treatment consultation.
