RF Microneedling with Morpheus8 and VirtueRF
As we age, our skin loses its fresh and smooth appearance because we lose collagen, develop areas of hyperpigmentation from sun exposure, and form wrinkles and creases. Today more people than ever are avoiding invasive plastic surgery procedures like the facelift because there are effective non-surgical options that allow them to return to work quickly with little downtime and discomfort.
Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is a groundbreaking technology that can restore the youthful look through skin resurfacing and tightening. These devices are safe and effectively treat skin laxity while removing excess fat. Energy is deposited into the deep layers of the skin that stimulates natural regeneration of collagen and elastin, as well as tightens the skin and reduces skin laxity by shrinking collagen and removing subdermal fat. The end result is a more youthful look with increased volume and suppleness.

Is treatment with RF microneedling painful?
At Studio R Aesthetics, we ensure that our patients have access to treatments without fear of intolerable discomfort. We apply the strongest topical anesthetic available to the treatment site for at least 60-90 minutes prior to performing the procedure, which desensitizes the nerve endings in the epidermis and reduces sensations from RF microneedling.
We can administer Pronox, which is a self-delivery nitrous oxide system that increases physical and emotional comfort for our patients.
Are there any side effects after treatment with RF microneedling?
Side effects of RF microneedling may include transient redness and swelling. It is possible that some patients may experience temporary bruising. The microneedling aspect of treatment may leave tiny points on the skin that crust and flake off. Mild tenderness or soreness may result from the absorption of RF energy and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication. Our team will discuss the side effects you might experience during your consultation and decision regarding the extent of your treatment plan.
