Profound earns top honors froom both Plastic Surgery Practice and Yahoo Beauty! According to PSP’s “Hot Stuff” Highlights the Hottest Launches in 2015: Profound came out of the gates in 2015, and quickly developed a loyal fan base of dermatologists and cosmetic surgeons. The system delivers radiofrequency energy through needles to boost collagen, elastin, and Hyaluronic acid from the inside out. It can lift sagging jowls, define the jawline, tighten other areas of loose skin, and add volume to marionette lines. Profound can also enhance delivery of topical agents.
Some research suggests it can achieve close to 89% of what a traditional facelift can when the temperatures are optimized. “The concept of microneedling – either with a handheld device, motorized pen, or by radiofrequency energy, is one of the hottest trends in medical aesthetics,” says PSP contributing editor Wendy Lewis. “Profound® is the first system that has been clinically proven to stimulate new collagen, elastin, and Hyaluronic acid – the three essential elements of youthful skin, which elevates the treatment to a new level for nonsurgical systems,” Lewis adds. – dlm
