Am I a Candidate for RF Microneedling?
September 10, 2023
Looking for an effective skin rejuvenation treatment that won’t disrupt your busy lifestyle? Radiofrequency microneedling at the Langdon Center may be the perfect fit.
What is RF Microneedling?
RF microneedling is a cosmetic procedure that combines the benefits of radiofrequency energy and microneedling to improve the appearance of your skin. This non-invasive treatment effectively addresses various skin concerns and signs of aging.
RF microneedling stimulates collagen production and triggers the skin’s natural healing process by using tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries and deliver radiofrequency energy deep into the tissue. This results in improved skin texture, reduced acne scarring, tightened and rejuvenated skin, and a more even skin tone. RF microneedling can help you achieve smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
What Skin Conditions Can RF Microneedling Treat?
RF microneedling is a versatile treatment that can effectively address a variety of skin concerns. Some of the skin conditions that RF microneedling can treat include:
- Acne scarring
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven skin texture
- Hyperpigmentation and discoloration
- Stretch marks
- Mild skin laxity
Who is a Good Candidate for RF Microneedling?
If you want a convenient, effective way to rejuvenate your skin, you may be a good candidate for RF microneedling. This innovative procedure is suitable for all skin types and tones. RF microneedling can help improve the appearance of uneven skin tone, tighten and firm sagging skin, and rejuvenate your overall complexion.
RF microneedling may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions or active skin infections. Additionally, candidates should not be pregnant or nursing. Dr. Langdon will help you determine if this is the right treatment for you during a detailed consultation.

What to Expect During and After Radiofrequency Microneedling
Before the procedure begins, we will apply a topical numbing cream to minimize any discomfort. Our aesthetic specialist will then use a handheld device to create controlled micro-injuries in your skin while delivering radiofrequency energy.
After the treatment, you may experience some redness, swelling, or mild sensitivity in the treated area. These side effects are temporary and should subside within a few days. Most patients can return to their daily activities immediately after the procedure.
When Will I See Radiofrequency Microneedling Results?
Your skin will gradually improve over time as it produces more collagen. Most patients enjoy a brighter complexion within two weeks of their RF microneedling treatment. It may take a couple of months and a series of treatments to see optimal results that are long-lasting. Some complexion concerns, like acne scars and wrinkles, take longer to treat than others.
I had an express face lift 13 years ago. At the time I was very happy with the results. I looked younger and fresher, but the effect was also natural. Now 13 years years later, at the age of 68, I still look great. When I tell people my age, they express disbelief. I would recommend this procedure to anyone who wants to look younger.
