Is RF Microneedling Painful?

You might feel a slight prickling sensation from the microneedles and a warmness due to the Scarlet RF being used. However, a topical numbing cream will be applied, so the procedure should be pain-free.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

The number of appointments depends on what you want to achieve and on which body part the treatment is being performed. But one thing for sure is that you will need more than one treatment. If you are looking to treat wrinkles or stretch marks, you may need 4 to 6 microneedling treatments, whereas if you want to reduce scars, you may need 6 to 8 treatments. Furthermore, all these treatments are spaced every 4 to 6 weeks apart to ensure the safety of your skin.

How Long Until I See the Results?

This is a procedure with cumulative results, meaning you will see the results more after each successive session if you are getting multiple sessions. The results will only improve as the body’s collagen production ramps up and shows in your skin volume. The final tightening impact usually shows six months or so after treatment. Also, keep in mind that each session has a gap of four to six weeks.

Can I Combine RF Microneedling with Other Procedures?

Absolutely, you can! Our patients who have gotten RF microneedling in Chino have combined it with other facial refresher treatments such as PRP facial and dermaplaning. We recommend you discuss these ideas with Nina Gaetano, PA-C, during your initial appointment so that she can advise you on the best way forward for any combined procedures and, if so, include them in your treatment plan.

What Are the Risks Associated with RF Microneedling?

Even though RF Microneedling is a noninvasive procedure and the risks are barely present, it is important to disclose the risks that have been reported.

RF Microneedling Introduction

As we grow old, our skin also ages. It becomes loose and less elastic, and the main reason for this occurrence is the reduction in fibroblast cells, which are the building blocks of collagen proteins. This results in wrinkled skin sagging and makes our skin appear very dull, and this is exactly what we never want to face. Obviously, we can’t stop aging, but we can stop our skin from aging. All of us want our skin to look young and fresh even as we age. One of the most popular solutions for this is RF microneedling! RF Microneedling is also known as collagen induction therapy or skin needling, and it is a safe and chemical-free method that will trigger the production of new collagen. Owner and Physician Assistant Nina Gaetano prides herself in the quality of service at Bella Sol Med Spa.

What is RF Microneedling?

RF Microneedling therapy is spreading quickly, and more and more people are using this treatment to rejuvenate their skin. This procedure is very simple and uses a device with tiny, shallow needles to puncture your skin to create a controlled skin injury. Once at the desired depth in your skin, these microneedles then release Scarlet RF laser energy under the skin’s surface to catalyze collagen production. The freshly produced collagen in your body will rejuvenate your skin by filling the fine lines and plumping your skin, improving the texture and tightness, removing the wrinkles, scars, stretch marks, and much more, and this will make you look younger even as you age. Microneedling is not just restricted to the face but can be used on many body parts like arms, legs, neck, back, hands, and abdomen.

The microneedling process generally takes 30 minutes. Your skin will appear a little bit red, resembling sunburn, but eventually, your skin will become fairly normal in a couple of days. The natural growth of collagen doesn’t happen instantly but will take place over weeks and months, so this treatment won’t be an instant fix but will improve your skin over the longer term.
