What is Microneedling with Radiofrequency?
Microneedling with Radiofrequency (RF) is an advanced version of traditional microneedling, combining the benefits of microneedling with the skin-tightening effects of RF energy. While the microneedles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin to support collagen production, the RF energy penetrates deep into the dermis, further stimulating collagen development and tightening the skin from within.
This combination of technologies makes Microneedling with RF a highly effective treatment for addressing multiple skin concerns simultaneously. It improves skin texture, reduces fine lines, and enhances skin firmness, making it particularly effective for treating mild skin laxity.
The controlled micro-injuries from microneedling, combined with the heat from RF energy, trigger the skin’s natural healing process, increasing collagen and elastin production.
Microneedling with RF effectively minimizes fine lines and wrinkles by promoting collagen production, creating a smoother and more youthful appearance.
The dual action of microneedling and RF energy helps to even out skin tone and improve texture, addressing concerns like rough patches, large pores, and uneven pigmentation.
The treatment’s ability to deeply stimulate collagen effectively reduces acne scars, stretch marks, and other textural irregularities.
The RF energy targets the inner layers of the skin, promoting tissue contraction and providing a noticeable tightening effect.
The procedure works on all skin types and tones, as it doesn’t rely on light-based energy. It’s a versatile solution for anyone seeking non-surgical skin rejuvenation.
The Cutera® system combines microneedling, which creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, with RF energy that penetrates deep into the skin layers. The micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin production. The RF energy enhances this process by delivering heat to deeper layers of the skin, tightening and firming from within.
Before treatment, your skin is cleansed and numbed to ensure comfort. The Cutera® device is then passed over the treatment area, with microneedles creating precise channels in the skin while RF energy is delivered. The process usually lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, which depends on the area being treated. Post-treatment, patients may experience mild redness, similar to a mild sunburn, which subsides in 24-48 hours.
Before undergoing any medical-grade peel, a comprehensive skin assessment is conducted. This helps determine the perfect type of peel (e.g., superficial, medium, or deep).
The skin is thoroughly cleansed to remove any surface impurities and prepare it for the peel’s application.
The selected chemical peel is applied in a controlled manner. Depending on the strength of the peel, it may be left on for a specific period to help the active ingredients to be absorbed by the skin.
The peel is neutralized and gently removed after the desired time has elapsed.
A calming, hydrating mask or serum may be applied to soothe the skin.
Microneedling with RF is ideal for individuals looking to improve the following skin concerns:
It is safe for all skin types, making it an excellent option for clients seeking non-invasive skin rejuvenation without the risks of lasers or surgery.

Microneedling with Radiofrequency is generally well-tolerated by most patients. Before the treatment begins, a topical numbing cream is used to minimize any discomfort. While you may feel a mild prickling sensation during the microneedling process, the addition of RF energy typically produces a warming sensation rather than pain. In short, any discomfort is minimal and temporary, subsiding shortly after the procedure.
A typical Microneedling with Radiofrequency session takes 30 to 60 minutes, determined by the size of the treatment area. This includes time for the application of numbing cream and the procedure itself. During your consultation, our provider will give you a specific timeline based on your condition.
To prepare for your Microneedling with Radiofrequency treatment, avoid tanning beds, retinoids, and exfoliating products for at least a week before your appointment. Also, refrain from undergoing any aggressive skin treatments on the days leading up to your session. Making sure your skin is clean and moisturized will help ensure the best results.
The side effects of Microneedling with Radiofrequency are typically minimal and temporary. Most patients experience mild redness and tenderness immediately after the procedure, which resembles a mild sunburn. These symptoms generally disappear within 24 to 48 hours.
In rare cases, the patient may experience bruising or slight pinpoint bleeding, but these are also temporary and should resolve within a few days.
It’s generally recommended to avoid applying cosmetics for at least 24 hours after your Microneedling with RadioFrequency treatment to allow your skin to heal properly. This keeps your skin healthy and free of bacteria, which can help prevent irritation or infection. After the initial recovery period, you can resume wearing makeup, but use gentle, non-comedogenic products.
The results of Microneedling with Radiofrequency can be long-lasting, especially when you follow a proper skincare routine. Collagen production and skin tightening effects will continue to improve over several months after the treatment, with many patients seeing optimal results around 3-6 months post-treatment. A series of treatments every 6-12 months are recommended to sustain the results, depending on your skin’s condition and goals.
