Precision Skin Remodeling with Depth Intelligence™
Matrix PRO by Candela is an advanced fractional radiofrequency microneedling device engineered to stimulate collagen, tighten laxity, and improve texture—without compromising safety on skin of color. What makes Matrix PRO truly stand out is its Depth Intelligence™ technology, which allows energy to be delivered at multiple skin layers in a single pass, optimizing results while minimizing downtime. This multi-depth approach, combined with real-time impedance monitoring, ensures that each pulse adapts to your skin’s response in real time—making it more intelligent, more effective, and safer for all skin types.
At Spectrum Skin Clinic, we use Matrix PRO not just to treat concerns like acne scars, enlarged pores, and early laxity—but to restore long-term skin strength and integrity in a way that is tailored to your skin’s biology.

How It Works: Depth Intelligence™, Fractional Precision
Matrix PRO uses ultrafine microneedles to deliver bipolar RF energy at controlled depths in the dermis. With Depth Intelligence™, the device can treat up to three distinct dermal layers in a single insertion, providing more comprehensive stimulation with less trauma to the surface. The real-time impedance monitoring feature adjusts power based on the skin’s electrical resistance, which varies by thickness and hydration—ensuring optimal energy delivery across diverse skin types and treatment zones.
This precision is particularly valuable when treating acne scarring or delicate skin around the eyes, where uniform energy distribution matters most.
What to Expect During Treatment
After numbing the skin with a topical anesthetic, we cleanse and prep the area. The Matrix PRO handpiece is then passed in a systematic grid-like pattern over the treatment zones—face, neck, chest, or body—delivering RF energy at strategic depths. Most patients report a feeling of warm pressure with occasional deep pulses, but discomfort is minimal and very well tolerated.
Session time: 30–60 minutes depending on area size.
Recovery & Results: Repair in Layers
You may experience mild redness and swelling for up to 72 hours, with a sensation similar to a sunburn during the first 24. Most patients return to regular routines within 1–2 days. Unlike laser resurfacing, there’s no peeling, crusting, or risk of pigment rebound, making Matrix PRO an excellent choice for patients with active lifestyles or darker skin tones.
Visible tightening and improved texture typically begin at 2–3 weeks, but the most profound changes—collagen remodeling, dermal thickening, and scar improvement—continue to build for up to 12 weeks post-treatment.
Combination Therapies: Rebuild Smarter
Matrix PRO’s ability to create controlled microchannels makes it the perfect companion to regenerative treatments. At Spectrum, we often combine Matrix PRO with:
- PRFM (Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix): Enhances wound healing, collagen remodeling, and skin resilience. Ideal for patients with post-acne texture or inflammatory scarring.
- Exosomes (AnteAGE): Delivers cellular messengers that stimulate regeneration and improve recovery. Particularly useful for patients with inflammation-prone or barrier-compromised skin.
- Topical Growth Factor Serums: Applied post-treatment to reinforce fibroblast activation and improve tone and elasticity long term.
These pairings don’t just accelerate healing—they amplify results. Not all treatments are applicable or suitable for every pateinet and require close evaluation by physician.
Treatment Plan & Maintenance
- Series: 3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for best results
- Maintenance: Once every 6–12 months depending on age, skin type, and goals
- Pairing: Excellent when alternated with lighter resurfacing or collagen maintenance plans (like HydraFacial, Light & Bright, or RF skin tightening)
