Tribella™
Our Phoenix, AZ practice is proud to offer advanced skin rejuvenation treatments for men and women. Tribella™ skin rejuvenation from Venus Versa is the ultimate combination of noninvasive, nonsurgical skin treatments. Utilizing intense pulsed light (IPL) photorejuvenation, radio frequency (RF) energy, and nanofractional ablation also known as radio frequency micro-needling, Tribella™ refreshes your complexion in three ways simultaneously. Dr. Ryan Krch and his staff are highly skilled in Venus Versa technology and can perform the Tribella™ combination treatment to address all types of complexion and skin imperfections that result from the sun, stress, or aging.
For the ultimate skin rejuvenation, Dr. Ryan combines the following treatments into one remarkable Tribella™ treatment:
- IPL photofacial technology, which can reduce sun and environmental damage, age spots, spider veins, and more. It also works with your skin to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production.
- RF heat delivery to multiple layers of tissue simultaneously to improve blood flow and stimulate your body’s natural collagen and elastin.
- RF micro-needling or Nanofractional ablation, which utilizes micro-pins to create micro-traumas deep within the tissue. As the micro-traumas heal, fine lines, deep wrinkles, and scarring are reduced, creating tighter, firmer skin.
Once Tribella™ has been performed, Dr. Ryan adds the finishing touch with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy. PRP therapy can improve volume in the mid- and lower face (lips, tear troughs, and cheeks), significantly reducing the look of lines and wrinkles and refreshing your appearance. PRP also boosts your body’s collagen and assists in the overall healing process.
Ideal candidates for Tribella™
Men and women who experience multiple types of complexion imperfections but want gradual, natural-looking results instead of instant, obvious changes are the best candidates for Tribella™ skin rejuvenation. Due to its triple-treatment nature, Tribella™ can benefit those with dynamic deep and fine wrinkles, volume loss, elasticity loss, sun damage, age spots, spider veins, scars, rough texture – or combinations of any of the above. IPL, RF, and RF Micro-needling are safe for most individuals and skin types; however, if you have anemia or a blood disorder, talk to Dr. Ryan about whether PRP therapy is right for you.
Tribella™ Procedure Technique
Your Tribella™ skin rejuvenation treatment will be performed in one of Krch AESTHETIC MEDICINE’s private rooms. Depending on the level of treatment and number of treatment areas, your session could last from one to two hours. Your skin will be cleansed before treatment, and you'll be given shields for your eyes. You will be given a topical numbing cream for your treatment areas.

What to expect from your Tribella™ Treatment
Because Tribella™ combines three treatments, the downtime is longer than any of the three treatments performed alone. You can expect a downtime of about 1-4 days during which there will be some redness in the treated areas. It can look like you have a minor sunburn. Most of the minor discomfort you may feel resolves within hours of your treatment and can be easily managed by Tylenol. You’ll need to skip your makeup, lotions, etc. for 24-48 hours. (Dr. Ryan will discuss this with you for your specific case). However, you will need to stay out of the sun for 4 days and should always apply a heavy sunscreen and wear sun protective clothing and gear. Sunscreen can be applied after 48 hours. You may see some results after your skin has completely healed from your first session, but at least three sessions are recommended to get the optimum outcome. Most patients report having clearer and more even skin tone, increased elasticity and thickness, smoother texture, and overall more youthful and radiant complexions.

Frequently Asked Questions for Tribella™
How much does Tribella™ cost?
Because Dr. Ryan creates specific treatment plans for each patient based on the number and size of the treatment areas, the cost of Tribella™ is different for everyone. During your first consultation, Dr. Ryan will listen to your cosmetic goals, examine the areas you wish to treat, and discuss cost with you based on that.
Is Tribella™ right for my skin?
Tribella™ is designed to simultaneously address the texture, tone, and elasticity of skin. For age-related skin concerns, such as wrinkles and loss of firmness and volume, plus other issues like sun damage, acne scars, or hyperpigmentation, Tribella™ is a great solution.
Some people do have issues that could prevent the safe use of the Tribella™ treatment. For example, excessive tanning (both current or past), silicone or metal implants in the area you want treated, active skin diseases or disorders, or any light- or heat-aggravated diseases. Mention any of these issues to Dr. Ryan at your first consultation.
How many Tribella™ treatments are required to see results?
Dr. Ryan typically suggests 3 – 4 sessions, about 4 – 5 weeks apart, to obtain your best personal results. This number will be estimated at your initial consultation, but it might change based on how you are healing and progressing at your follow-up appointments. Once you are finished with your full treatment plan, you will be able to see some signs of improvement. However, your ultimate outcome will likely be seen about three months after the end of your treatment plan.
Are Tribella™ results permanent?
The results of the Tribella™ treatment can last approximately 6 months, depending on the pre-treatment condition of your skin, how your skin tends to heal, and how well you follow your aftercare instructions. Each element of the Tribella™ treatment is designed to stimulate collagen and elastin generation, so while your results may not be “permanent,” they are cumulative and should continue to improve over time.
Does Tribella™ hurt?
Because Tribella™ involves three treatments, each step causes different sensations. Some patients report a painless experience, while others report only minor pain or discomfort. Of the three treatments, the one most likely to be uncomfortable is the nanofractional ablation step. This is because your skin will already be sensitive from the previous steps. Talk to Dr. Ryan at your consultation if you are concerned about experiencing discomfort during your Tribella™ treatment.
