RF Microneedling Austin, TX

You Are Generally Healthy

While the procedure is considered minimally invasive, patients who are immunocompromised, prone to infection, or who have active skin issues in their desired treatment areas may not be immediately approved for the procedure.

However, once these conditions improve, our provider can review the patient’s full medical history and determine if the procedure is safe for them.

You Are Experiencing Skin Laxity And Signs Of Aging

RF microneedling can jumpstart the skin renewal process. This treatment is designed to create a smoother, tighter, more youthful look. Due to the nature of the procedure, there are some limitations to what the treatment can accomplish. RF microneedling may not be the best treatment option for discoloration caused by hyperpigmentation, pigmented lesions, or visible blood vessels (e.g., capillaries). Laser treatments are often more effective for achieving these goals. RF microneedling can be combined with a Broadband Light treatment (BBL). A combination of BBL and RF microneedling treatment can address pigment and vascular reduction, along with the benefit of radiofrequency microneedles. Nonetheless, patients should have realistic expectations of what a non-surgical treatment can achieve.

You Are Willing To Commit To Multiple Treatment Sessions

Our provider will most likely recommend a treatment plan for at least four RF microneedling appointments spaced 4-6 weeks apart. This promotes optimal, long-lasting rejuvenation. Our providers often recommend adding BBL to the treatment. The BBL assists with pigment or vascular reduction and increases collagen production.

RF microneedling is safe for use on a wide variety of skin tones. There is also no specific age restriction. Women and men alike can benefit from the treatment. However, for patients who are pregnant or on certain acne medications, it is not recommended to undergo RF microneedling.
