About the treatment
RF microneedling combines needles with radiofrequency energy delivered into the skin. Treatment goals and settings depend on the particular device and the patient's assessment.

What to expect
A qualified medical provider assesses the skin and selects a treatment plan. Downtime and the course of treatment vary; improvement is not immediate or guaranteed.

Suitability and important considerations
Risks include burns, scarring, fat loss and nerve injury. The FDA has reported serious complications with certain uses. Discuss the exact device, practitioner experience, alternatives and recovery before deciding.

Your consultation
Discuss your goals, health history, allergies, medicines and previous treatments before deciding on a plan. Your provider will explain alternatives, likely recovery and individual aftercare. Results vary. A consultation does not commit you to treatment.
