During your consultation, your provider will examine the areas of concern on your skin, whether it’s acne scarring, fine lines, dark spots, or more. We will build your treatment plan for your unique skin.

First, we will apply a topical numbing medication to your skin. Next, we’ll move the microneedling device slowly over the treatment area, which will puncture tiny holes into your skin while emitting RF thermal energy.

The radiofrequency energy intensifies the controlled damage caused to your skin, which promotes a more dramatic healing response from your body.
If your treatment plan includes radiofrequency microneedling, we can adjust the device’s settings to address your specific needs. Various skin conditions require different needle depths and energy levels to help you achieve your skin goals.
By adding radiofrequency energy to the micro-injuries caused by the tiny needles, RF microneedling penetrates deeper into your skin and intensifies your body’s healing response. Depending on your specific concerns, we may recommend RF microneedling instead of traditional microneedling for better results.

Still have questions?
RF microneedling and traditional microneedling rely on the same basic principles. By puncturing the top layers of your skin with sterile needles, we stimulate your skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin. These proteins improve the internal structure of your skin.
Radiofrequency microneedling adds heat energy to the micro-wounds to intensify the controlled damage and encourage more dramatic healing. The extra protein production will help tighten and lift your skin.
To minimize any discomfort felt during RF microneedling, we apply a topical medication to numb the treatment area. If you have any other concerns about managing discomfort, let your provider know, and we will come up with a plan to make RF microneedling as comfortable as possible.
RF microneedling activates your body’s healing response, so your results will occur naturally as your skin increases its production of collagen and elastin. You can expect continued improvements to your skin tone and texture over time. After completing your recommended number of treatments, you can expect to see the full benefits after 3 to 6 months.
