What Is RF Microneedling?
Microneedling uses a tool to create tiny punctures in the skin. This mimics an injury and stimulates the body's natural process of producing collagen and elastin. Radio waves enhance the effects of microneedling and they are often used together for the best results. The microneedling tool looks like a pen with a group of tiny needles at the end. Areas where your skin is thinner may be more sensitive to the needles, but you should not be in pain during a treatment. The handheld tool allows us to target fine lines, wrinkles, and visible scars.
After a microneedling treatment, we apply recovery gel to the skin. Follow all the aftercare instructions from your dermatologist for the best results, and you will see the full benefits of your microneedling treatment after 2-4 weeks when swelling has subsided.
What Are the Benefits?
When you make a radio frequency microneedling appointment in Baton Rouge, LA, stimulating collagen production has several benefits. Your body reacts the same to a tiny wound as it does to a large wound, triggering the healing process and producing lasting effects, as the body continues to produce collagen and elastin for up to three months.
Microneedling is a minimally invasive way to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and stretch marks. It is most commonly performed on the face to reduce wrinkles and acne scarring and improve skin texture, but it can also be used to reduce stretch marks in areas like the legs, chest, or butt. If you want to improve the texture of your skin or reduce scars, you could benefit from a microneedling treatment.
