Microneedling is one of the most popular facial rejuvenation treatments for a reason. It uses your body’s natural anti-aging mechanism to help you get youthful results. Now, you can supercharge the microneedling treatment with radiofrequency that targets the deeper dermal cells.
RF Microneedling
What is RF Microneedling?
Radiofrequency microneedling is a new age treatment that uses the healing properties of radiofrequency energy to destroy old and diseased cells, tighten skin tissue, and reduce the appearance of marks and scars.

How Does RF Microneedling Differ from Conventional Microneedling?
Traditional microneedling involves making tiny micro injuries to the surface of the skin. The micro wounds don’t go past the dermis layer so that collagen and elastin production is stimulated only at the surface level, resulting in a reduction of minor facial lines.
But when we add radiofrequency to the procedure, we are able to target the dermal tissues located deep in your skin – which is where most of the long-term damage actually exists. The radiofrequency waves heat the tissues in the skin, causing the damaged cells to disintegrate. This boosts cellular regeneration. Any scar tissue or pigmentation on the skin will reduce considerably because new dermal cells are formed in the place of the old, damaged ones. The heat energy also stimulates the tissues to contract, thereby reducing the appearance of sagging.
How Is the Procedure Performed?
RF microneedling is a safe and minimally invasive procedure that starts with an evaluation of your cosmetic needs. Absolutely anyone experiencing signs of aging can undergo RF microneedling, provided:
- You don’t have any lesions, cysts, or skin infections that can worsen because of RF microneedling
- You don’t have super-sensitive skin that can result in burns after the treatment
The procedure is performed in our Twin Falls office. Any makeup you have on is removed and your face is cleaned with a gentle cleanser. A topical anesthetic is applied to make the treatment comfortable.
Once you are ready, specially designed micro needles will be used to create micro injuries on your skin. These needles transport radiofrequency energy directly into your skin, where the waves heat the skin and stimulate tissue contraction and cellular regeneration. You may feel your skin mildly warming up in these spots.

What You Need to Know
The treatment can be completed in under an hour and you can return to work right after. Immediately after the procedure, your skin may look slightly red and tender and feel dry. But these symptoms should subside in a few hours. You may also have minor flaking, which will reduce in a few days. Don’t touch or pick at the flakes, as doing so may lead to infection.
It’s advisable not to wear any makeup for 2-3 days to allow your skin to heal. Afterward, you need to use skin-sensitive cosmetics that have hydrating agents. It’s best to stay out of the sun for a few days as well since direct exposure can be harsh on sensitive skin.
Results
RF microneedling will not only stimulate collagen production, but it will enable the release of growth factors and healing proteins, which help you restore your timeless youthfulness. The results of RF microneedling can last for up to 2 years, after which you’ll need to have the procedure done again. Contact Majestic Aesthetics & Wellness to schedule your session today.
