About Microneedling + RF

Microneedling and RF work together to gently puncture the skin while delivering RF energy deep into underlying tissues. Microneedling is a collagen induction therapy that creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes. RF technology delivers targeted thermal energy to the dermal layer, inducing collagen contraction and stimulating the production of new collagen fibers to improve skin texture and elasticity. ⁽¹⁾ This dual-action will tighten your skin, diminish fine lines, and improve overall texture with minimal downtime.

Different Radiofrequency Offerings

Virtue RF Microneedling

Virtue RF Microneedling combines the precision of microneedling with the skin-tightening benefits of radiofrequency energy. It uses a unique multi-layered approach, employing fine needles to create tiny micro-injuries, which allow RF energy to penetrate deeply. This treatment refines skin texture and tone, lifts and tightens the neck, defines the jawline, reduces acne scars, and diminishes stretch marks. As the skin heals, you will notice a rejuvenated, firmer, and smoother complexion.

Profound RF Skin Tightening

Profound RF skin tightening is a non-surgical skin tightening treatment that combines radiofrequency energy with advanced microneedling technology to rejuvenate the skin from within. By stimulating the natural production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, Profound RF enhances skin tone, texture, and elasticity to address common signs of aging. This treatment is FDA-approved and is safe for all skin types, resulting in transformative results for both the face and body.

Preparation

Effectively preparing for your microneedling + RF treatment allows you to maximize your results and minimize your overall downtime. We recommend that you:

Dr. Rednam or Dr. Harirchian may provide additional preparation instructions, depending on your specific treatment plan and target concerns. Closely follow all information you receive to facilitate a smooth procedure with optimal outcomes.

Procedure

At the beginning of your procedure, Dr. Harirchian, Dr. Rednam, or another myEvergreen specialist will thoroughly wash your face to remove any impurities, and you will receive topical numbing cream to help reduce any discomfort. After your numbing takes effect, your specialist will adjust the device settings, including the needle depth and energy levels. Next, they will pass the handheld microneedling device over your skin, gently puncturing the skin. Simultaneously, RF energy will enter deeper skin layers. ⁽²⁾ They will carefully and strategically pass the device over your target areas multiple times to ensure even collagen and elastin stimulation. Once they complete this step, they will wipe your skin and immediately apply a cooling mask.

Recovery

After your treatment, you may notice mild swelling and redness, similar to a mild sunburn, which will generally subside in a day or two. Applying a medical-grade moisturizer and avoiding touching your face will allow for a quicker recovery. After two to five days, you may wash your face with a gentle facial cleanser, but you must still avoid makeup application, strenuous workouts, and sweating. You may notice your skin beginning to peel during this time; it is crucial that you allow it to shed on its own without peeling it off. Applying a broad-spectrum mineral sunscreen daily and avoiding direct sun exposure will help ensure a smooth, healthy complexion as your skin repairs itself.

Results

As your skin repairs itself and collagen builds, you will begin to appreciate a smoother, tighter, more vibrant complexion. Although you will see some improvements immediately, results refine as skin tissues rebuild. Patients frequently report heightened confidence with their complexion, and they can preserve their results with daily sunscreen use and effective skincare regimens.

Corresponding Procedures

Botox®

Botox reduces the appearance of facial wrinkles by relaxing facial muscles with botulinum toxin type A. Botox effectively clears forehead lines, crow’s feet, lip lines, frown lines, chin wrinkles, and more.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that smooth wrinkles, restore volume, and enhance facial rejuvenation. Most contain hyaluronic acid, which draws moisture to volumize the skin. Dermal fillers help to contour the face by replacing or augmenting volume, and they are effective for enhancing the lips, cheeks, chin, and more.

Chemical Peels

Chemical peels are an effective and non-invasive skincare treatment that address a variety of skin conditions, from fine lines and wrinkles to hyperpigmentation and acne.
