The RRS range consists of 14 tailored injectable formulations designed to repair, refill and stimulate the skin, providing hydrobalance combined with biorevitalising benefits. It allows aesthetic practitioners to offer patients unsurpassed biorevitalisation treatments that are highly effective and safe to use for the face and body.

RRS contains non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid combined with 20 to 72 active ingredients solubilised in a solution to treat a number of conditions conditions, including skin laxity, pigmentation, alopecia, and the appearance of cellulite and stretch marks, as well as boosting collagen, elastin and skin hydration. Easy to use as an injectable and compatible with multiple delivery systems, RRS offers stable, durable and rapid treatment results. RRS is an extremely versatile product range and can be tailored to the patient’s needs, skin condition and lifestyle. The RRS range can also be used in multiple modalities, depending on the qualification and profession of the practitioner, with consistent and predictable results.

DR MAYONI GOONERATNE

“RRS consists of non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid which supports and stimulates the extra-cellular matrix. In addition, some ranges also include silicium to stimulate the local production of collagen. Alongside these two main substrates, there are up to 72 added amino acids, nucleotides and polyphenols among others that then provide a biorevitalisation cocktail.

“Skin Tech is a company that prides itself in offering both laboratory and clinically tested products. There are robust medical studies that are available to refer to that demonstrate both efficacy and safety making the range an absolutely obvious choice. There are very few mesotherapy ranges available to the aesthetic practitioner, and those that do exist do not have the level of studies and testing that RRS has to support it.

“Another main attraction of this mesotherapy range is its versatility. It can be added to many of the treatments that practitioners may already have in their clinic – microneedling, for example – which adds significant value, both therapeutically and commercially.”

COMBINATION TREATMENTS

Showcasing the versatility and diversity of RRS with multiple delivery systems and device modalities, four leading industry practitioners share their successful case-studies and how you can tailor and optimise RRS treatment outcome by utilising the benefits of true combination therapy.

Modality 1 RRS XL Hair Meso gun

Duration of treatment: 30 mins once per week for 12 weeks.

Treatment summary: Reduce treatment time and stimulate dermal activity with Meso gun application – the multiple needle penetrations in this treatment protocol stimulate hair growth, combined with injection delivery of the RRS XL Hair formulation.

Practitioner view: Dr Sophie Shotter, Illuminate Skin Clinic, says, “Using a meso gun for this application makes the treatment much more comfortable for the patient and also much quicker. It is also my go-to for treating any larger areas of the face or body. RRS is like my little apothecary. I love being able to blend and mix different vials to achieve utterly bespoke results for my patients, but I also know that picking just one vial of the shelf will do an incredible job, too. The safety profile, extensive testing and fantastic results mean it is my go-to for skin biorevitalisation.”

Modality 2 Plasma Poration RRS XL Hair® Therapy

Duration of treatment: 30 mins per session per week for six to 12 weeks as necessary.

Treatment summary: Utilises the cellular regeneration technology of Plasma Poration, which provides effective results and enables delivery of the product into the scalp without any needle discomfort.

Practitioner view: Frances Turner Traill, FTT Skin Clinics says, ”We are in the early stages of trialling plasma and RRS therapy for hair loss and we are already experiencing great results. A 26-year-old female client who first presented with a solitary area of alopecia showed remarkable results after only two treatments. She had six treatments in total and her full hair growth is restored. A male patient who is in the early stages of treatment for male pattern baldness has had two treatments to date and is showing signs of new hair growth, which is promising. Any type of hair loss can cause great distress in a patient, so it’s fantastic to find an innovative treatment that is showing promising results.”

Modality 3 Plasma Shower RRS Face & Eye Therapy

Duration of treatment: 30 mins per session per week for six weeks.

Treatment summary: Plasma Shower technology allows a transdermal delivery of a tailored selection of RRS serums directly into the dermis and enables the delivery of the product into the skin without any discomfort. Treatment of the delicate periorbital area is also possible.

Practitioner view: Dr Beatriz Molina, Medikas, says, “The combination of Plasma Shower and RRS serums has transformed the way we treat skin. We can achieve extraordinary results with no pain, downtime or side effects via an aesthetic treatment that is very relaxing and has a great patient satisfaction rate. I have used Skin Tech products for several years, including the RRS range, as I trust the products and the results; they are EU approved, have a great safety profile and, most importantly, they work! The ingredients have been thoughtfully put together to achieve optimal results. The fact that Lorna [McDonnell Bowes] and the team at AestheticSource have chosen the range to be a part of its portfolio is perfect for me. AestheticSource is such a great distributor/company and is a pleasure to work with.”

Modality 4 Tixel RRS® Meso Neck treatment

Duration of treatment: 60 mins per session per month for three months with a follow-up.

Treatment summary: An advanced fractional thermo-mechanical treatment, Tixel thermal energy creates micron-sized pores in an effect that is similar to that of fractional Co2 lasers. It enables effective dermal delivery of the RRS serums through the skin, offering an innovative transdermal delivery of product that reduces pigmentation, increases collagen production, and relaxes muscles.

Practitioner view: Mrs Sabrina Shah-Desai, Perfect Eyes, says, “We have achieved amazing results by combining Tixel with the RRS serum portfolio. With the flexibility for three modalities and the range of RRS serums, I can tailor the treatment intensity and increase/reduce the application and formulation protocol for a truly bespoke programme. This versatility enables me to treat the face, décolletage and delicate periorbital area effectively.” AM
