Microneedling RF
Radio Frequency Microneedling
What Is Microneedling RF, or Radio Frequency Microneedling?
This treatment improves the appearance of irregular texture, large pores, scars, laxity, and wrinkles.
Very thin, medical-grade needles create tiny, microscopic injuries while delivering radio waves deep in the skin. This gives a uniform warming effect to the deep tissue to prompt your body’s natural healing response and helps to stimulate new collagen fibers to grow, leading to significant improvement to skin quality and texture.
This treatment is safe for all skin types.

How does the treatment feel?
A numbing cream will be applied an hour prior to the treatment to maximize your comfort level. Most client give 5 on a scale from 1 to 10.
How long is the downtime?
There is an initial redness and swelling which substantially subsides after 24-36 hours. It can take up to a week for this to completely resolve. Most people resume normal activities within 48 hours.
How long before I see results?
You can expect to see some changes as soon as a day or two after the procedure. However, your body will continue to rebuild the collagen and elastin for several weeks after that, so you will see improvement over the next six months.
How long will my results last?
Unlike many other procedures, Genius has long lasting results since it is your own body that is at work. The effects could last for years.
How many treatment will I need?
Many see results after just 1 treatment but it typically takes 3 treatments spaced 6-8 week apart to get optimal results as opposed to 6 treatments as with many other treatments.
