What is AGNES?
AGNES Precision RF Microneedling is an advanced and innovative treatment that combines radiofrequency (RF) technology with microneedling to target and address various skin concerns. Developed to provide precise and targeted energy delivery, AGNES can effectively treat conditions such as acne, acne scars, under-eye bags, and unwanted fat deposits. By combining microneedles with RF energy, AGNES promotes collagen production and tissue remodeling, leading to visible improvements in the treated areas.
AGNES Q & A
Which Areas Can AGNES Treat?
AGNES can treat a range of areas on the face and body, including:
- Face: AGNES is particularly effective in treating acne and acne scars, as well as addressing issues like enlarged pores and fine lines.
- Eyes: The treatment can target under-eye bags, reducing puffiness and achieving a more youthful appearance.
- Body: AGNES can be used to address unwanted fat deposits, particularly in areas such as the chin, jowls, and arms.
Who is a Candidate for AGNES?
AGNES is suitable for individuals dealing with specific skin concerns. Potential candidates include:
- Acne Sufferers: Individuals with active acne or acne scars seeking targeted and effective solutions.
- Under-Eye Bag Concerns: Those looking to reduce puffiness and improve the appearance of under-eye bags.
- Localized Fat Deposits: Individuals with stubborn fat pockets in areas that can benefit from localized fat reduction.
How Long Does AGNES Take?
The duration of an AGNES treatment session varies based on the area being treated and the specific concern. Treatment sessions can range from 30 minutes to an hour. Multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results, and your practitioner will create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs.
Is AGNES Painful?
AGNES treatments are generally well-tolerated by patients. The procedure involves the use of microneedles combined with RF energy, which can cause a mild sensation during the treatment. To ensure comfort, a topical numbing cream may be applied before the procedure. Many individuals report only minimal discomfort and find the benefits of the treatment to be well worth any temporary sensation.
How Can I Prepare for AGNES?
To ensure a successful AGNES treatment and the best possible results, consider the following preparation steps:
- Consultation: Schedule a consultation with Dr. Henry to discuss your concerns, goals, and medical history.
- Sun Protection: Protect your skin from sun exposure before and after the treatment to minimize the risk of complications.
- Skin Products: Follow your Dr. Henry's instructions regarding skincare products before and after the treatment.
- Hydration: Keep your skin well-hydrated by drinking water and using moisturizers as recommended by Dr. Henry.
- Inform Dr. Henry: Share any allergies, medications, or medical conditions you have to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the treatment.
