The microneedling radiofrequency (RF) treatment is designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles on the face, as well as firm up sagging skin and improve skin texture. By increasing the production of collagen, the skin becomes more elastic and youthful. It works by using RF technology and microneedling techniques to target the dermis. The device delivers heat energy into the dermis, causing the tissue to tighten and firm. It is safe for all skin types and does not harm the surface of the skin as the needles are insulated. It is effective on the neck, face, chest, and tummy but can be used on other areas as well.

WHO CAN BE TREATED
microneedling radiofrequency (RF) treatment can be used on all skin types because the needles bypass the surface of the skin to target the dermis underneath. By avoiding the epidermis, post-treatment pigmentation is reduced significantly, and patients of Asian, African, and Hispanic descent can also enjoy the benefits of the procedure.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE
The microneedling radiofrequency (RF) treatment can take about 45 mins to treat the area or more if the area is larger.
Is Use Of Radiofrequency In Medicine Safe?
Radio frequency RF energy has been used in medicine in various applications for many decades safely and effectively.
Non-ablative RF was FDA approved for treatment of wrinkles and skin tightening in 2002.
Radio frequency essentially heats up the skin causing a controlled “burn” which triggers the skin’s healing response, eventually minimizing wrinkles, scars and tightening the skin in two distinct ways:
Immediate collagen contraction visible at the time of the treatment.
New collagen production and remodeling with further skin thickening and tightening which continues for months after treatment.
