The power of RF microneedling

With the launch of the Level 5 RF microneedling qualification, Annalouise Kenny, founder of Skin Philosophy Training, examines how the treatment works, side effects and whether you should be offering in your clinic

Radiofrequency (RF) needling involves using a device with fine needles that create micro-injuries while emitting radiofrequency energy, heating the deeper layers of the skin.

The controlled micro-injuries prompt skin renewal, while the RF energy enhances the tightening and lifting effects by heating the underlying layers, leading to more substantial and longer-lasting results.

A thorough skin consultation is necessary to ensure you are treating the areas that are required. After having the treatment done myself, I have noticed the biggest impact along the jawline for lost elasticity, which is usually tough to treat.

Benefits of RF microneedling:

1. Enhanced skin tightening: The combination of microneedling and RF energy significantly boosts collagen and elastin production, resulting in firmer, tighter skin.

2. Improved skin texture: This treatment effectively reduces the appearance of acne scars, large pores, and fine lines, leading to smoother skin.

3. Minimally invasive: Unlike traditional surgical facelifts, RF microneedling is minimally invasive, offering substantial results with minimal downtime.

4. Safe for all skin types: The treatment is suitable for various skin types and tones, making it a versatile option for many patients.

5. Quick recovery: Patients typically experience mild redness and swelling, with most returning to normal activities within a day or two.
