The “Ultimate Duo” treatment, which combines VirtueRF microneedling with a CoolPeel (performed on the Smartxide Tetra CO2), was featured in a November issue of Aesthetic Insights as an advanced skin rejuvenation procedure. Below is an excerpt from Powerful Multi-Modality Treatment Streamlines Skin Rejuvenation.
Novel skin rejuvenation procedures featuring newer, more advanced technologies are entering the aesthetic marketplace in greater numbers. A leader in this area, Cartessa Aesthetics (Melville, N.Y.) offers the ''Ultimate Duo'' procedure, which is the exclusive combination of its VirtueRF microneedling system with CoolPeel, an extension of its Tetra CO2 laser system. Practitioners report this treatment attracts patients of all ages because of improved efficacy and minimal downtime.
”There is a pent-up demand for this type of advanced skin treatment,” stated Monica Bonakdar, M.D., an aesthetic laser surgeon in Newport Beach, Calif. ”The Ultimate Duo protocol does a great job of remodeling the skin, and the VirtueRF and CoolPeel systems work well together. Patients today want minimal downtime. They don’t have time for multiple treatments when a single-session combination treatment is available.”
