INTRAcel RF Microneedling
INTRAcel RF microneedling is an exciting advancement in skin rejuvenation. It uses thermal radiofrequency energy to tighten subdermal tissue and promote collagen production. Thanks to INTRAcel RF microneedling, Broomfield patients experience improved skin texture and appearance. At Original Skin Medspa and Laser Clinic, we are expert providers of this popular treatment.
What Is INTRAcel RF Microneedling?
INTRAcel is a fractional radiofrequency microneedling system designed to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin. Unlike traditional microneedling, which only creates physical micro-channels, INTRAcel delivers heat energy through insulated needles directly into the dermis. This dual-action approach allows for more significant remodeling of the skin’s structure.
INTRAcel is a non-surgical option for skin tightening and resurfacing. It is effective for treating acne scars, large pores, and mild skin laxity. By targeting the deep dermis while leaving the epidermis (outer layer) relatively intact, the treatment promotes rapid healing.
How It Works: Microneedles + Radio-Frequency
The effectiveness of RF microneedling lies in its precision. The device utilizes a handheld applicator featuring an array of tiny, insulated, gold-plated microneedles. These needles penetrate the skin at precise depths. Once inside the dermis, the device emits a pulse of radiofrequency energy.
This energy generates heat, which triggers the body’s natural healing response. The combination of physical micro-injuries and thermal energy stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin. This process thickens the skin and tightens the underlying structure over time. Because the needles are insulated, heat is delivered precisely where it is needed, protecting the skin’s surface from thermal damage.
Common Skin Concerns Treated
INTRAcel is versatile and can address a variety of textural and aging concerns. This treatment is ideal for:
- Acne Scars: Improving the appearance of pitted or depressed scars.
- Skin Texture: Smoothing out rough patches and uneven tone to improve skin texture.
- Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Softening lines around the eyes, mouth, and forehead.
- Skin Laxity: Tightening mild sagging on the face, neck, and jawline.
- Stretch Marks: Reducing the visibility of stretch marks on the body.

What to Expect During INTRAcel RF Microneedling
The treatment area will be cleaned with an antiseptic and then numbed with a topical anesthetic for additional comfort. When maximum numbness is achieved, the patented INTRAcel RF microneedling device will be used to pierce the skin with tiny needles in quick successive movements. These needles will emit RF energy in the skin tissues.
This portion of the procedure lasts approximately an hour. Patients commonly report experiencing minimal discomfort, if any, during the procedure.
What to Expect After INTRAcel RF Microneedling
Recovery time after treatment is minimal. Patients are encouraged to have light activity for a day or two; rest will allow your body to focus on healing. Temporary side effects, such as redness, swelling, or mild discomfort, may occur but typically resolve within a few hours.
Patients should temporarily avoid other med spa services and certain skincare products that may cause irritation. Patients should sleep with their heads elevated and their faces up to minimize swelling and reduce the risk of infection. Instructions regarding activities to avoid and proper skincare will be provided.
How Much Does INTRAcel RF Microneedling Cost?
The price of INTRAcel RF microneedling in Broomfield varies and is determined by factors such as the severity of the issues being treated and the size of the treatment area. Multiple sessions may be recommended to help the patient achieve their goals. A detailed treatment protocol and cost information will be provided at your consultation.
Why Choose Original Skin Medspa
At Original Skin Medspa, our team combines advanced medical expertise with a boutique, patient-centered experience. Our priority is your safety and satisfaction, which is why we customize every INTRAcel treatment to match your unique skin type and aesthetic goals.
We are committed to delivering professional-grade outcomes using state-of-the-art technology. Our office in Broomfield offers a private and welcoming atmosphere where you can feel confident in your care.
We prioritize your comfort by applying a strong topical anesthetic before the procedure. Most patients describe the sensation as tolerable, often feeling it as light pressure or a prickling sensation with some accompanying heat.
While some patients experience improvement after a single session, we typically recommend a series of three to four treatments, spaced four to six weeks apart, for optimal results. Your provider will create a personalized plan tailored to your specific skin concerns.
Standard microneedling relies solely on physical micro-injuries to stimulate collagen. INTRAcel RF microneedling treatments in Broomfield, CO, add radiofrequency energy, which creates a thermal effect in the deep dermis, producing more dramatic tightening and remodeling results than microneedling alone.
INTRAcel can be paired with other treatments for comprehensive rejuvenation. Many patients combine it with Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatments to address surface pigmentation, sun damage, and redness, while INTRAcel works deeper to improve texture and firmness.
Results can be long-lasting, often persisting for a year or more. However, the aging process continues, so we recommend maintenance treatments once or twice a year to sustain the benefits.
