Microneedling With RF: How Does It Work?
An RF microneedling treatment is the same as a traditional microneedling experience, where a specialized device is used to create micro-injuries in the skin that boost collagen production. The difference is that as the device is moved over the skin it simultaneously emits radiofrequency waves that heat deeper skin tissue layers.
This deeply penetrating heat triggers the body’s natural healing mechanisms, increasing cell turnover and resulting in intense collagen and elastin production. Since RF energy targets deeper layers of the skin, it’s more effective at addressing deep skin concerns like scarring and cellulite.

All About RF Microneedling: FAQs
Not at all! RF microneedling is comparable in comfort to traditional microneedling. Both are generally well-tolerated, and we can use a numbing cream to minimize any discomfort during your session.
RF microneedling is an excellent option for a wide range of skin types and concerns. It’s especially effective for deeper issues like mild skin laxity, stubborn scars, and uneven texture, making it more versatile than traditional microneedling. Our team will assess your skin during a consultation to determine if RF microneedling is right for you.
Traditional: Minimal downtime, but may cause more surface damage
RF: Even shorter downtime, with less damage to the skin’s surface
We recommend waiting 24-72 hours before applying makeup after your RF microneedling treatment. This allows your skin to heal properly and reduces the risk of irritation or infection. For best results, our team will provide specific post-care guidance tailored to your needs.
RF microneedling treatments have a slightly higher cost than traditional microneedling because the advanced technology used is more expensive to operate. However, RF microneedling may require fewer sessions to achieve noticeable results, which can make the cost difference per-treatment worth it in the end, depending on your skin concern. During your consultation, we’ll discuss pricing and work together to create a treatment plan that fits your goals and your budget.
