Glowing, youthful skin is always in style, but how you achieve that glow has come a long way. If you’ve been researching ways to improve your skin’s texture, firmness, and overall radiance, chances are you’ve come across microneedling. While traditional microneedling is still a popular choice, there’s a new kid on the block: Exion, a revolutionary leap forward in skin rejuvenation in Tampa.
So, how does Exion compare to traditional microneedling? And why are more patients choosing this advanced technology for tighter, smoother, more radiant skin? Let’s break it all down.
What Is Traditional Microneedling?
Microneedling involves using tiny, fine needles on the skin’s surface to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. This ultimately increases collagen and elastin production. Over time, this helps reduce the appearance of:
- Fine lines
- Acne scars
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin tone
- Mild skin laxity
While effective, traditional microneedling can be inconsistent depending on skin type, pressure used, and recovery response. It often requires numbing cream, several sessions, and a few days of social downtime due to redness and sensitivity.
Exion: Modern Skin Rejuvenation
Exion is a state-of-the-art skin rejuvenation device that enhances the benefits of microneedling by combining it with radiofrequency (RF) energy and AI-powered depth control. It’s the next generation of skin therapy, and we’re proud to offer it at North Tampa Dentistry.
Instead of relying solely on mechanical injury, Exion’s technology delivers radiofrequency heat to deeper layers of skin. It stimulates collagen and hyaluronic acid production more efficiently than traditional methods. Plus, its intelligent system adapts to your unique skin structure, ensuring a safer, more comfortable, and more effective treatment.

Who Benefits Most from Exion?
Exion is ideal for patients who:
- Want tighter, smoother, more radiant skin without surgery

- Struggle with acne scars or large pores
- Are looking for a quicker recovery and less downtime

Because Exion is gentle yet powerful, it works well on all skin tones and can safely treat sensitive areas like under the eyes or the neck—places traditional microneedling may not reach.
