Revitalize your skin with collagen stimulation

RF microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that combines the benefits of microneedling and radiofrequency energy. At Serotonin Centers, we utilize EXION Fractional RF to deliver heat deep into the skin, creating micro-injuries that stimulate the natural production of collagen and elastin. This synergy may help improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, minimize acne scars, and promote firmer, more youthful-looking skin. It’s a powerful solution for those seeking non-surgical skin tightening and rejuvenation.

How does RF microneedling work?

RF microneedling uses tiny, insulated needles to create micro-injuries in the skin while delivering controlled radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis. This combination stimulates the body’s natural healing response, triggering the production of collagen to enhance skin firmness, texture, and elasticity. The heat from the RF energy also promotes tissue remodeling, helping to reduce wrinkles, tighten skin, and refine tone. By working at multiple skin levels, RF microneedling may help rejuvenate your complexion and support lasting results.

What happens during the RF microneedling treatment

During RF microneedling, a trained specialist will cleanse your skin and apply a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort. The EXION Fractional RF device is used to create tiny, controlled micro-injuries while delivering targeted radiofrequency energy deep into your skin. You’ll feel a gentle warmth and mild pressure during the process. The combination of microneedling and RF energy stimulates your skin’s natural healing response, promoting collagen production and tightening for a smoother, firmer, and more rejuvenated appearance.

Side effects and recovery after RF microneedling

After RF microneedling, you may experience mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity in the treated area, similar to a mild sunburn. These side effects typically subside within 24 to 72 hours. You can resume most normal activities the next day, but it’s essential to follow aftercare instructions, such as avoiding excessive sun exposure and applying soothing products. Most clients experience minimal downtime and can return to their regular routine quickly.

How many RF microneedling sessions will I need?

You’ll typically need a series of 3 to 4 RF microneedling sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart for optimal results. Your treatment plan may vary based on your skin concerns and goals. During your consultation at Serotonin Centers, we’ll assess your skin and customize a plan to help you achieve a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance.

How long do the results last?

The results of RF microneedling may last several months, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and skincare routine. Collagen and elastin production can continue for weeks after each session, resulting in sustained improvements. To maintain your results, you may benefit from maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months as recommended by your provider.

Tips to optimize the results of RF microneedling:

  • Follow a consistent skincare routine with gentle, hydrating products
  • Use broad-spectrum sunscreen daily to protect treated skin
  • Avoid excessive sun exposure and tanning beds
  • Stay hydrated and maintain a balanced, nutrient-rich diet
  • Avoid harsh exfoliants or active ingredients like retinoids for a few days post-treatment
  • Schedule maintenance sessions as recommended by your provider
  • Refrain from picking or touching treated areas
  • Support collagen production with topical peptides or hyaluronic acid
  • Minimize alcohol and smoking, which can hinder skin regeneration
  • Get adequate sleep to support your skin’s healing process
