Microneedling treatment with Radio Frequency

What is Radiofrequency?

  • Radiofrequency (RF) therapy, also known as radiofrequency skin tightening.
  • This kind of treatment uses a nonsurgical method of tightening your skin and helps to reduce wrinkles.
  • This procedure uses energy waves to produce heat that penetrates into the deep layer of your skin.
  • As a result, the heat stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin.

What is Radiofrequency Microneedling Used For?

  • Radiofrequency microneedling (RF microneedling) improves skin texture and tone, to address fine lines and wrinkles, laxity, and acne scars.

Benefits of Radiofrequency Microneedling:

  • Shrinks enlarged pores
  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
  • Smooths lines on the upper lip skin
  • Helps with loose skin (face and body)
  • Reduces the appearance of stretch marks
  • Helps with dull or uneven skin tone or texture
  • Reduces the appearance of hyperpigmentation
  • Improves acne or surgery scars (on the face and body)

Difference between Microneedling and Microneedling RF

  • Microneedling is a procedure that uses very fine sterile needles that penetrate the skin causing micro-wounds that stimulate wound healing. Normally, when doing a regular micro needling treatment, patients have the option to choose to add PRP or use Hyaluronic acid serum.
  • Microneedling RF combines microneedling with radiofrequency heat energy to amplify collagen and elastin production. Microneedles are inserted into the skin and heat is delivered between the needles to achieve this.
  • Note: PRP can be added to both treatments, as it nicely compliments these procedures.

Which treatment is better for acne?

  • Both microneedling and microneedling RF can be helpful for acne scarring by using a series of treatments.
  • The added RF can give synergistic effects, which often leads to fewer treatments than microneedling alone.
  • Note: We recommend not getting any microneedling treatment if you have active acne. This will prevent any infection and spread of bacteria.
