What Is RF Microneedling?
RF microneedling is a cosmetic treatment that combines the benefits of traditional microneedling with the added boost of radiofrequency energy. The treatment aims to encourage healing and regeneration within the skin by prompting processes that your body does anyway but in a more localized area. RF microneedling can promote smooth, firm, and youthful skin throughout several treatments.
Microneedling and How It Transforms the Skin
When the fine needles of RF needling penetrate your skin, they create tiny microchannels. This controlled perforation triggers your body’s wound-healing response, which includes increased blood flow and the release of growth factors. These factors encourage the production of new collagen and elastin fibers, essential proteins that provide structural support to the skin. As the skin repairs itself, you’ll notice improved texture, reduced fine lines, and a more even skin tone.
Radiofrequency and Its Effect on the Skin
Microneedling with RF delivers immediate and long-term benefits to your skin. Right after treatment, the heat generated by radiofrequency energy causes the skin tissues to contract, resulting in an instant tightening effect. Over the following weeks, as collagen and elastin production increases, you’ll experience continued improvements in skin firmness and elasticity. This helps tighten and lift sagging skin and provides a more youthful appearance over time.
What Can RF Microneedling Be Used to Treat?
- Sagging Skin: This treatment can help tighten loose skin by stimulating collagen production and contracting existing fibers. The heat generated by RF microneedling enhances skin firmness and provides a subtle lift to sagging areas.
- Acne Scars: Using radiofrequency microneedling for acne scars can improve the texture and appearance of the skin. The microchannels break down scar tissue and trigger healing, while the radiofrequency energy promotes new collagen growth.
- Rough, Dry Skin: RF microneedling treatment can rejuvenate rough, dry skin, encourage cell turnover, and enhance moisture retention for smoother, more hydrated skin.
- Wrinkles and Fine Lines: The combination of microneedling and radiofrequency reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Healthy collagen and elastin make the surface of the skin smooth and firm, supporting the skin from the inside so wrinkles are less visible.
- Large Pores: Reducing the size of large pores is another benefit. The treatment tightens the skin around the pores, making them less visible and contributing to a smoother complexion.
- Rosacea and Redness: This treatment can also help manage rosacea and reduce redness. As blood flow increases and skin is strengthened, visible blood vessels and irritation are both reduced.
Types of RF Microneedling Treatments
Secret™ RF Microneedling
The Secret RF microneedling device stands out from others because of its customizable treatment depths and energy delivery. It precisely targets skin concerns, from fine lines to deeper acne scars, and treats many different skin types. The adjustable settings allow each treatment to suit the patients and provide optimal results with minimal downtime.
RF Microneedling With PRP
RF microneedling with PRP takes skin rejuvenation to the next level by incorporating platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into the treatment. After the microneedling and RF process, PRP, derived from your blood, is applied to the skin. The growth factors in PRP enhance the healing process and boost collagen production even further. By integrating PRP with microneedling and RF, patients can achieve more dramatic and longer-lasting results.
A Closer Look at the Process
Prepping the Skin
Before RF microneedling, we cleanse the skin to remove dirt, oil, or makeup. A topical numbing cream is sometimes applied to the treatment area to help reduce any sensations during the treatment.
Treating the Skin
The microneedling and radiofrequency device features several rows of tiny needles that all penetrate the skin simultaneously when the device is placed on the skin. One section at a time, we treat the skin with the needles and the radiofrequency energy. The process is comfortable for most patients, with some prickling sensations and warmth. We continually check in with you to make sure you are comfortable and to make any adjustments as needed.
The Healing Process
Post-treatment, your skin may appear red and feel warm as your body responds to the treatment. This means the treatment has initiated your body’s healing process. Over the next few days, any redness, peeling, or scabbing will begin to fade and your skin will begin to look more refreshed. Keep your skin hydrated and protected from the sun to support the healing process.
RF Microneedling Results
Results from RF needling typically start to become visible within a few weeks as new collagen forms and the skin heals. You will notice improvements in skin texture, firmness, and overall appearance. For optimal results, multiple sessions, spaced several weeks apart, may be recommended. The benefits of RF needling continue to develop over several months, providing long-lasting rejuvenation and a more youthful complexion.
