Can I combine RF Microneedling with other treatments?

During your consultation, our skin experts will discuss your unique skin goals, assess your skin, and develop a personalized treatment plan for your skin’s best results.
Is RF Microneedling suitable for all skin types?
Yes, RF Microneedling is safe and effective for all skin types and tones. This treatment is particularly beneficial for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture and tone, minimizing the appearance of acne scars, and tightening of the skin.
Are there any side effects?
Yes, there are some potential risks for side effects to the RF Microneedling treatment. They are generally mild and temporary, such as redness and swelling, which typically subsides within a few days. Mild bruising may occur in sensitive areas which may take up to a week to heal. Some dryness and peeling may occur a few days after the RF Microneedling treatment, as your skin begins to heal and regenerate. The treated area may be more sensitive to touch and sunlight for a few days post-treatment. These side effects are typically short-lived and should diminish as your skin heals.
Can I wear makeup after the treatment?
Abstain from applying makeup to the treated area until it fully heals. Your skin will need a minimum of 3-4 days to heal properly and reduce the risk of irritation or infection. After this initial period, you can gradually reintroduce makeup, but be sure to use gentle, non-comedogenic products to avoid clogging pores and exacerbating any potential side effects. Always follow any additional aftercare instructions provided by our staff for optimal results.
When will I see results?
You may notice initial results a few days after your RF Microneedling Treatment as your skin begins to heal and rejuvenate. However, the most significant results typically develop over several weeks to a few months, as your collagen production increases. To receive the best results, it is important to follow your provider’s treatment plan, ensuring optimal results depending on your skin and unique goals.
Is there downtime?
Downtime is minimal, with most patients experiencing mild redness and swelling that subsides within a few days. It is important to follow your provider’s aftercare instructions to ensure enhanced and quicker recovery,
Is RF Microneedling safe?

How many sessions will I need?
The number of RF Microneedling Treatments needed varies based on each person and their desired results. Generally, most clients achieve results within 3 to 4 sessions spaced between 4 to 6 weeks apart. For more severe skin issues, such as deep acne scars or significant signs of aging, additional sessions may be required.
During your initial consultation, our staff will work with you to build a personalized treatment to address your needs. Regular maintenance sessions may also be suggested to sustain and enhance the results over time.
