Microneedling with RF (Radio-Frequency)
Microneedling with RF is an advanced treatment that combines traditional microneedling with radio-frequency energy to enhance skin rejuvenation. This procedure effectively stimulates collagen production while delivering heat to the deeper layers of the skin, resulting in significant tightening and rejuvenation.
Anaesthesia
Topical anaesthesia is generally applied to enhance comfort during the procedure.
Side Effects
Possible temporary redness, swelling, and mild discomfort, which typically resolves quickly.
Treatment Time
Approximately 30-90 minutes, depending on the area treated.
Target Areas
Face, neck, and other areas needing skin tightening.
Downtime
Minimal; most patients can return to normal activities shortly after treatment, although some redness may last a few days.
