Radiofrequency Microneedling FAQ

Radiofrequency microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that uses needles in combination with fractional radiofrequency energy.

The treatment involves insulated gold-plated microneedles that penetrate into the skin at a certain depth and deliver a radiofrequency impulse into the targeted area.
This way of delivering radiofrequency gives off more uniform heating of the deeper skin layers thus causing collagen contraction and stimulation.
Thus it helps to stimulate the body’s own production of collagen and elastin over the next few months, resulting in long-term skin tightening and rejuvenation.

The most common side effects of radiofrequency micro-needling are temporary and include:

Redness and swelling.

Bruising and tenderness.

Dryness and flaking.

After the treatment, you may experience some redness and swelling, which should resolve within a few hours to a couple of days.
It is important to avoid sun exposure and wear sunscreen for the first week following the treatment.
