What is the primary objective of setting the penetration depth to 3mm in bipolar Microneedle RF? Target the Deep Dermis


The primary objective of setting a 3mm penetration depth in bipolar Microneedle Radiofrequency (MRF) is to bypass the superficial skin layers and precisely target the deep dermis. This specific depth is required to reach the sebaceous glands and the root sources of acne inflammation, which are located deeper within the skin structure.

Setting the depth to 3mm is a strategic requirement to deliver thermal energy exactly where it is needed to shrink sebaceous glands and stimulate deep collagen remodeling, rather than wasting energy on surface layers.

Targeting the Root Cause in the Deep Dermis

Locating the Inflammation

Acne inflammation does not occur merely on the surface; it resides deep within the skin. A 3mm depth ensures the microneedles physically reach the deep dermis, the primary location of this inflammation.

Controlling Sebum Production

The deep dermis is also home to the sebaceous glands. By releasing radiofrequency energy specifically at 3mm, the treatment targets these glands directly.

Thermal Denaturation at the Source

The energy released causes thermal denaturation (controlled heat damage) within the glands. This process effectively reduces sebum production at the source, preventing future breakouts.

Structural Remodeling for Scar Repair

Stimulating Collagen Contraction

Beyond acne control, the 3mm depth is critical for structural repair. The thermal energy induces the immediate contraction of collagen fibers within the deep dermis.

Regenerating Deep Tissue

The heat triggers a healing response that leads to the regeneration of new collagen. This deep-level remodeling is essential for improving the appearance of deep acne scars, which superficial treatments often fail to address.

Critical Considerations and Precision

The Necessity of Depth

The 3mm setting is not arbitrary; it is a critical threshold. If the penetration is too shallow, the radiofrequency energy will not reach the sebaceous glands or the base of deep scars.

Ensuring Efficacy

Failing to reach the deep dermis renders the treatment less effective for these specific conditions. Without achieving the 3mm depth, the procedure cannot induce the necessary thermal changes to stop inflammation or rebuild deep tissue.

Making the Right Choice for Your Goal

To maximize the effectiveness of bipolar Microneedle Radiofrequency, align your treatment depth with your specific clinical objective:

  • If your primary focus is Reducing Active Acne: Utilize the 3mm depth to ensure energy reaches and thermally denatures the sebaceous glands to lower oil production.
  • If your primary focus is Treating Deep Scars: Maintain the 3mm depth to stimulate collagen regeneration in the deep dermis, which is necessary for smoothing pitted or depressed scars.

Precision in depth selection is the defining factor in transitioning from surface-level care to deep structural correction.

Summary Table:

Objective Depth Setting Targeted Skin Layer Primary Clinical Result
Acne Control 3.0 mm Deep Dermis Thermal denaturation of sebaceous glands
Deep Scar Repair 3.0 mm Deep Dermis Collagen contraction & deep tissue regeneration
Sebum Reduction 3.0 mm Deep Dermis Decreased oil production at the root source
Surface Texture < 1.5 mm Epidermis/Upper Dermis Fine line reduction and pore refinement
