RF Microneedling

What is RF Microneedling?
RF Microneedling (Radiofrequency Microneedling) is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate deeper collagen production, tighten skin, and improve overall texture.
The device uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries while simultaneously delivering radiofrequency heat energy into the skin’s deeper layers.
RF Microneedling Devices
At Medrein Health & Aesthetics, we utilize a variety of advanced RF microneedling devices to customize treatments to your specific needs and goals.
These include:
- Morpheus8: This device combines microneedling with fractional radiofrequency energy to remodel collagen and improve skin tone and texture on both the face and body. It is particularly effective for treating deep wrinkles, acne scars, and sagging skin.
- Sylfirm: This device uses continuous wave radiofrequency microneedling to stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving skin laxity, texture, and tone. It is a gentle treatment suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
- Potenza: This device combines microneedling with monopolar and bipolar radiofrequency energy to provide customized treatments for a variety of skin concerns. It can be used to improve skin tone and texture, reduce acne scars, and tighten the skin.
- Lutronic Genius
Lutronic Genius is an advanced RF microneedling system that uses intelligent real-time feedback technology to deliver precise energy to targeted skin layers. This AI-driven approach ensures consistent, effective treatments with minimal discomfort and downtime. It is ideal for skin tightening, wrinkle reduction, acne scars, and overall skin rejuvenation.
Lutronic Genius
The Lutronic Genius is what Dr. Haritha Mikkilineni calls “the next-gen radio-frequency microneedling procedure.”
This treatment has more impressive results with fewer side effects and little to no downtime. Radiofrequency microneedling is the go-to procedure of Medrein Health & Aesthetics. The first phase of the treatment is microneedling to create microscopic, quick-healing wounds deep in the dermis. “When you put needles in the skin, it induces a cascade of events for your skin to respond to produce more collagen and elastin,” Dr. Haritha Mikkilineni explains.
Then, Lutronic Genius takes skin plumping and tightening one step further by pairing up the painless pinpricks with radiofrequency to heat up the skin and create thermal damage. As a result, the whole process “expedites the production of collagen and elastin,” causing skin to contract, tighten, and improve fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging, Dr. Haritha Mikkilineni says. The best results appear after a series of three treatments, timed one month apart.
On the day of the procedure, you can expect your face to be covered in some “point marks of blood” and minimal scabbing, Dr. Haritha Mikkilineni says, while she recommends patients skip wearing makeup for 24 hours to let the needle wounds heal. In the three to five days following, redness and a bit of peeling may occur, too.
In general, radiofrequency microneedling devices offer “the best bang for someone’s buck” as their results pack very little downtime and maximum efficiency without causing “an enormous amount of trauma” to the skin.
What are the uses for RF Microneedling?
- Fine Lines & Wrinkles – Stimulates deep collagen production to smooth and firm the skin.
- Skin Tightening & Lifting – Improves skin laxity by boosting elastin and collagen.
- Acne Scars & Surgical Scars – Reduces the appearance of atrophic (indented) scars.
- Hyperpigmentation & Uneven Skin Tone – Helps fade dark spots and sun damage.
- Enlarged Pores – Tightens skin and minimizes the appearance of large pores.
- Stretch Marks – Improves skin texture and elasticity in areas like the abdomen and thighs.
- Neck & Décolletage Rejuvenation – Firms sagging skin and reduces crepey texture.
- Jawline Contouring – Helps define and sculpt the lower face.
- Body Skin Tightening – Commonly used on areas like the abdomen, arms, and knees.
Healite (Infrared Light)
MFR produces good results in treating skin laxity, wrinkles and skin rejuvenation of the head, neck, and décolleté, as well as in other areas of the body. 830 nm LED has proven efficacy in stand-alone skin rejuvenation and enhanced wound healing with prophylaxis against hypertrophic scar formation.
If these 830 nm LED-LLLT-associated benefits were to be added to good results already achieved with MFR, the author believes that an excellent synergy would be achieved delivering an outcome far superior to the effect of each modality used on its own, to the benefit of both clinicians and of course their patients.
