RF Microneedling
Combine microneedling with radiofrequency energy for next-level skin tightening and texture renewal.
What is RF Microneedling? RF Microneedling pairs traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy delivered into the deeper layers of the skin. This dual action stimulates collagen and tightens tissue, making it especially effective for laxity, texture, and scarring.
Benefits of RF Microneedling: Tightens and firms loose or lax skin. Improves the appearance of acne scars and large pores. Smooths fine lines and uneven texture. Stimulates deep collagen remodeling with minimal downtime.
BEFORE TREATMENT
-
Avoid using Accutane for 6 months prior to treatment.
-
Discontinue retinoid use for 1 week before treatment.
-
Avoid laser treatments for 1 week prior.
-
Refrain from alcohol consumption for 1 week before treatment.
DURING TREATMENT
- A topical numbing cream is applied for your comfort.
- Insulated microneedles deliver radiofrequency energy into the deeper layers of the skin.
- The combined micro-channels and heat stimulate collagen and tighten skin.
AFTER TREATMENT
-
Skin may feel taut.
-
Avoid applying products to the face or washing the face for 24 hours.
-
Refrain from strenuous activity for 24 hours.
-
Resume regular skincare in 2-3 days.
-
Avoid sun exposure for 1 week.
-
Refrain from using alcohol-based toners for 2 weeks.
RESULT NOTES
-
3 treatments are recommended for optimal results.
-
Results typically appear after 4-8 weeks, as this is the time required for collagen production.
-
Maintenance treatments are recommended every 6 months.
What does RF microneedling do?
RF microneedling combines micro-channeling with radiofrequency heat to stimulate deep collagen production, tighten skin, and improve texture, pores, and scarring.
How is RF microneedling different from regular microneedling?
Standard microneedling relies on micro-injuries alone, while RF microneedling adds radiofrequency energy for greater skin-tightening and deeper collagen remodeling.
How many RF microneedling treatments do I need?
Most people benefit from a series of about 3 sessions spaced several weeks apart, with results that continue to build over time.
Is RF microneedling painful?
Numbing cream is applied first, so most patients feel only mild heat or pressure. Comfort is closely managed throughout the treatment.
What is the downtime for RF microneedling?
Expect redness and possible mild swelling for a day or two. Most people resume normal activities quickly.
When will I see results from RF microneedling?
Some tightening is noticeable early, but the most significant collagen-driven results appear gradually over a few months.
