RF Microneedling Q&A

How is RF microneedling different from microneedling?

RF microneedling is a more advanced microneedling treatment. Microneedling uses a special pen with tiny needles to create controlled wounds on the surface of the skin. These wounds stimulate the production of collagen, a structural protein in the skin.

 

RF microneedling takes the cosmetic treatment one step further by adding radiofrequency energy, which heats the deeper layers of the skin for more dramatic results.

 

Coastal Regenerative Orthopedics & Wellness Center uses the Potenza RF microneedling tool, which features ultrafine needles and controlled heat to penetrate the skin at various depths.

 

The Potenza microneedling tool has Tiger Tip technology, enabling your provider at Coastal Regenerative Orthopedics & Wellness Center to treat both shallow and deep parts of the skin at the same time. 

What does RF microneedling treat?

The team provides RF microneedling to address many aesthetic concerns that affect the face and body, including:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Sagging skin
  • Stretch marks
  • Large pores
  • Acne scars
  • Surgical scars
  • Cellulite

RF microneedling tightens your skin and brightens your complexion. 

I’m afraid of needles. What does RF microneedling feel like?

You may feel some pressure but no pain during RF microneedling at Coastal Regenerative Orthopedics & Wellness Center. Your provider cleans your skin with an antiseptic agent and then applies a numbing cream to control discomfort.

Then, they place the RF microneedling pen on your skin to create tiny wounds. Treatment time varies, but RF microneedling usually takes less than an hour.

What can I expect after RF microneedling?

You may have some redness, swelling, and bruising following RF microneedling treatment at Coastal Regenerative Orthopedics & Wellness Center. However, these side effects resolve quickly.

Healing time is faster with RF microneedling than with traditional microneedling because the heat energy speeds up the skin’s repair process.

You may see improvements in your look within 4-6 weeks, but final results may take up to 12 weeks after you complete all your recommended sessions.

The team at Coastal Regenerative Orthopedics & Wellness Center recommends a series of 3-4 RF microneedling treatments every 3-8 weeks to get the best results.
