What Is RF Microneedling?

RF microneedling treatments utilize very fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface and deliver radiofrequency (RF) energy to reach the deeper levels of the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production and new skin growth. With advanced radiofrequency technology, RF microneedling delivers superior microneedling results with minimal downtime and discomfort.

Dr. Sanniec and his expert team will develop a personalized RF microneedling treatment plan to target your unique skin concerns, including:

  • Smoothing fine lines and wrinkles for a more youthful look
  • Firming and tightening loose or sagging skin for a more contoured appearance
  • Minimizing scar visibility, including acne scars, stretch marks, and other scarring
  • Improving skin tone and texture, including hyperpigmentation for a brighter complexion and enlarged pores for smoother skin

RF microneedling creates minimal discomfort and requires minimal downtime. Most patients can resume most daily activities shortly after the procedure and report mild side effects, such as redness or swelling, that typically resolve within a few days. As RF microneedling is customizable, the treatment is suitable for all skin types and tones and can address each patient’s unique needs and aesthetic goals.

To achieve optimal results, most patients require 3 to 6 RF microneedling treatments scheduled about4-6 weeks apart. Our experts may recommend maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months to sustain its rejuvenating effects. As RF microneedling is a versatile treatment, it can safely treat areas like the face, neck, décolletage, and hands to enhance overall appearance.
