Golden needle is a method in which radiofrequency energy is transferred to the skin and subcutaneous tissue through needles. Its real name is Fractional Needle Radiofrequency. It is also called Golden Needle because the needles used for the procedure are covered with gold. Since the upper layer of the skin is not damaged in this procedure, the risk of side effects is extremely low and the recovery time is short.
The classical application of the radiofrequency method, which has been used in the medical field for many years, has also been used in the field of skin and cosmetology for a long time. With the development of technology, this radiofrequency method, which was previously used to rejuvenate the skin, correct scars and tighten the skin, has shown various developments.
With these technological developments, classical radiofrequency has been made fractional, allowing the power to be applied to penetrate the skin from many small points side by side, rather than as a whole. In addition, micro-needles were developed and energy current was delivered directly into the skin through these needles, thus protecting the upper layer of the skin from damage. These are third generation radiofrequency devices.
Thanks to the golden needles, the shot is made directly into the dermis, that is, the subcutaneous tissues. Depending on the area to be applied, energy can be provided at a depth of 0.5 – 3.5 mm. In gold needle treatment, radiofrequency energy is delivered directly to the targeted area thanks to the conductivity in the gold needles.
Radiofrequency energy provides a rapid breakdown of collagen fibers under the skin. As a result, the reorganized fibers renew themselves in a short time, ensuring contraction and recovery. By stimulating fibroblast cells, new collagen production is initiated.
