Does Microneedling With RF Really Work?

If you have rosacea, acne scars, wrinkles, and other skin conditions, you don’t need to spend your time and money on skincare techniques that don’t work.

At Vibrant Dermatology & Skinbar MD, located in Dedham, Massachusetts, we provide this treatment to people living in the communities of Boston, Dedham, Westwood, Norwood, Canton, Sharon, Milton, Walpole, Foxboro, and Needham.

Does Microneedling With RF Really Work?

RF microneedling is a cosmetic treatment that uses state-of-the-art techniques to address rosacea, fine lines, stretch marks, wrinkles, and other skin issues. This minimally invasive treatment is extremely effective. This treatment’s combination of traditional microneedling methods with radiofrequency energy will affect your deeper tissues and create dramatic changes in your skin.

How It Works

During your microneedling treatment, we will use a specialized needling device to make very small injuries in your skin. The tiny wounds in your skin will disrupt your acne and surgical scars. As we create these injuries, we will also transmit radiofrequency energy into your body. This energy will gently heat up the dermal tissues in your target area.

These techniques are an extremely effective way to enhance the amount of collagen in your dermal tissues. This fibrous protein plays an integral role in supporting and firming the structure of your skin. As your body creates more collagen fibers, the skin in your target area will become smoother and brighter.

What Should I Expect During the RF Microneedling Process?

You’ll receive your RF microneedling treatment during a quick visit to our office. To help your skin respond to this treatment, we will provide you with some skincare rules to follow before your treatment session. For instance, we will ask you not to use topical retinoids like Retin-A for a few days.

During your treatment, we will clean your skin and gently move our microneedling device over your target area. As we bring the device across the surface of your body, it will send radiofrequency energy into your tissues. We will carefully monitor the flow of this energy as we perform your treatment.

Who Is This Treatment Right For?

Microneedling works on all skin types. Further, this treatment can be customized to address scarring, discoloration, stretch marks, and many other cosmetic issues. As a result, you will probably benefit from this cosmetic treatment.

That said, active infections in your skin and other health issues can prevent you from using RF microneedling. We will discuss any health issues that you have and assess the condition of your skin before you receive this treatment. This information will allow us to determine whether you are eligible for this skincare technique.

Change Your Look

Instead of spending your money on ineffective products and treatments, you should treat your rosacea, scars, wrinkles, and other skin problems with RF microneedling. This treatment is a fantastic way to address these issues and achieve a glowing, attractive complexion. Give us a call to schedule your consultation!
