RF Microneedling

Treatment

RF Microneedling

RF microneedling combines fine needles with radiofrequency energy. The needles deliver heat into the deeper skin layer to prompt new collagen and smoother texture.

Benefits

Suitable Candidates

Procedure

A numbing cream goes on for 30 to 45 minutes. Your doctor then passes the handpiece across the skin. Fine needles enter the skin and release radiofrequency energy at a set depth. The session takes 30 to 45 minutes after numbing.

Recovery

Expect redness and mild swelling for 1 to 3 days. Small marks from the needles fade within days. Skip makeup for 24 hours. Use SPF 50 daily and skip retinol and acids for 5 to 7 days.
