Radiofrequency Microneedling

Also known as collagen induction therapy or skin needling, radiofrequency microneedling is one of the most popular treatments to rejuvenate the skin.

Unlock Your Skin's Potential

Radiofrequency microneedling is a controlled form of skin injury that stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. This innovative cosmetic procedure has proven effective in diminishing the appearance of enlarged pores, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, stretch marks, and scars. It also offers minimal pain and little downtime.

How RF Microneedling Works

An upgrade from conventional microneedling methods, radiofrequency microneedling uses a combination of small needles and radiofrequency waves to penetrate deeper into the skin for more dramatic results. This advanced treatment stimulates collagen production and tightens the skin, making it highly effective for addressing fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars. Additionally, it enhances skin texture and tone. For optimal results, radiofrequency microneedling can be used in conjunction with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, which further boosts the skin's natural healing process and rejuvenation.

What to Expect From Radiofrequency Microneedling

Treatment Process

Before the treatment, one of our healthcare providers will use a local or topical anesthetic to numb the skin. Sessions last between 10 and 20 minutes, with several—around four—usually required over a few months to achieve the desired results. It is then recommended that these sessions be repeated annually to maintain the full effect.

Aftercare

There is little to no downtime after radiofrequency microneedling, but you may experience some swelling, itching, and discomfort. Your skin might also appear red and inflamed, much like a sunburn. This, however, tends to last no more than a few hours or days. It’s also important to avoid wearing cosmetics for 24 hours after the procedure and to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily as your skin will be more sensitive to UV rays.

RF Microneedling With PRP

PRP is derived from your own blood and is rich in growth factors and healing properties. When applied to the skin after RF microneedling, it penetrates deep into the microchannels created by the needles, accelerating the healing process and enhancing overall results. PRP boosts collagen production, reduces inflammation, and promotes a more youthful, radiant complexion.

During the treatment, RF energy and microneedles work together to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. Following this, PRP is applied to the treated area, penetrating deeply to maximize its rejuvenating effects. The entire session typically lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, and multiple sessions are recommended for optimal results.

How Do I Know if RF Microneedling is Right for Me?

Ideal candidates for radiofrequency microneedling are individuals looking to improve the appearance of their skin without undergoing surgery. It is suitable for most skin types and tones. However, individuals with active skin infections, autoimmune disorders, or a history of keloid scarring may not be suitable candidates. Talk to your healthcare provider about any concerns you may have, and we will develop a treatment plan just for you.
