Introduction
As the Founder and Managing Director of an aesthetic chain in Singapore, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing the remarkable transformations and benefits of aesthetic treatments first-hand. Radiofrequency microneedling has emerged as a game-changer in the realm of skincare and aesthetics.
Unlocking the Potential of Radiofrequency Microneedling
As someone with a CIDESCO certification and specialized training in Beauty Therapy & Salon Management from Brentwood College UK, I’ve seen how this innovative treatment can revitalize skin, offering results that are both impressive and enduring.
In this article, I’ll delve into the essentials of radiofrequency microneedling – a cutting-edge technique combining the benefits of microneedling with the thermal energy of radiofrequency. This treatment is especially popular among young adults in their 20s and 30s in Singapore, who are increasingly interested in non-invasive ways to enhance their aesthetic appeal. I’ll provide insights on how to maximize the benefits of this treatment, ensuring that you get the most out of your investment in your beauty and well-being.
What is radiofrequency microneedling?
This innovative Microneedling procedure combines the traditional microneedling process with the cutting-edge technology of radiofrequency energy. Let me break it down for you:
- Microneedling Explained: This technique uses tiny needles to make small wounds in the skin. These wounds trigger the body’s healing response, ramping up collagen and elastin. This helps rejuvenate the skin.
- Radiofrequency (RF) Integration: When RF is added, these micro-injuries are also exposed to controlled RF energy. This heats the deeper layers of the skin, enhancing the skin’s tightening and remodeling response.
- Dual Action: The combination of microneedling with RF energy results in a dual action. The mechanical stimulation from microneedling promotes surface rejuvenation, while the thermal energy from RF enhances skin tightening from within.
- Ideal Candidates: It’s particularly beneficial for those looking to address fine lines, wrinkles, skin laxity, and even acne scars, offering a minimally invasive solution with noticeable results.
From the great results from our customers who’ve tried RF microneedling, it’s clear that radiofrequency microneedling is a game-changer in the realm of non-surgical skin rejuvenation, offering a balanced blend of safety, efficacy, and minimal downtime.
“You can maximize the results of your RF microneedling treatments by committing to a regular routine and always following your provider’s instructions.”
How does radiofrequency microneedling work?
In my journey through the aesthetics industry, I’ve come across many advanced treatments, but radiofrequency microneedling stands out for its effectiveness and innovation. Here’s how it works, from my perspective:
- Precision Meets Technology: Radiofrequency microneedling combines the traditional practice of microneedling with cutting-edge radiofrequency energy. Tiny needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, which naturally stimulate the body’s healing process.
- Enhanced Collagen Production: As these micro-injuries heal, the process promotes collagen production. Collagen is key to maintaining youthful, resilient skin. The addition of radiofrequency energy enhances this process, delivering heat to deeper layers of the skin without affecting the top layer.
- Tailored Depth and Intensity: One aspect I find particularly impressive is the ability to adjust the depth and intensity of the treatment. This customization makes it suitable for various skin types and concerns, addressing issues from fine lines to deeper wrinkles and even scars.
- Minimal Downtime, Maximal Results: Compared to more invasive procedures, radiofrequency microneedling offers the benefit of minimal downtime. (It’s also because of this, we can advise customers not to use numbing cream prior to the treatment)
Who can benefit from radiofrequency microneedling?
I’ve seen a diverse range of individuals reap the benefits of radiofrequency microneedling. This innovative procedure is not just limited to a particular age group or skin type; it has a broad appeal due to its versatility. From my interactions and research, here’s who I believe can benefit the most:
- Those Seeking Skin Rejuvenation: Individuals in their late 20s to 40s looking to combat early signs of aging, like fine lines and mild skin laxity, find this treatment particularly beneficial.
- People with Acne Scars: I’ve seen remarkable improvements in clients with acne scarring. The combination of microneedling and radiofrequency helps in remodeling the skin’s surface and deeper layers.
- Individuals with Uneven Skin Texture or Tone: Radiofrequency microneedling can improve overall skin texture, making it smoother and more uniform.
- Those Looking for Minimally Invasive Treatments: For those wary of surgical procedures, this offers a less invasive alternative with minimal downtime.
- Clients Interested in Long-Term Results: While not an instant fix, the results develop over time and can be quite long-lasting with proper skin care post-treatment.
What are the side effects of radiofrequency microneedling?
Based on my experience and interactions, here are some common side effects:
- Redness and Swelling: Immediately after the treatment, it’s typical for the skin to appear red and feel a bit swollen. This usually subsides within a few days.
- Skin Sensitivity: The treated area may feel sensitive to the touch, similar to a sunburn sensation. This sensitivity is usually temporary.
- Minor Bruising: Occasionally, clients may experience slight bruising, especially in more sensitive skin areas.
- Dryness and Flaking: As the skin heals and rejuvenates, some dryness and flaking can occur, which is a normal part of the skin renewal process.
- Temporary Skin Tightening: A feeling of tightness in the treated area is common, reflecting the skin’s natural healing response.
How to get the most out of radiofrequency microneedling
If you’re thinking about getting a RF microneeding treatment, or are about to come in for a microneedling session, take a look at these additional steps you can take before your visit and when you get home to maximize your results:
- Exfoliate Before Microneedling – Exfoliate several days before microneedling. Exfoliating several times in the weeks leading up to skin needling will improve your results by shedding the dead skin from the surface. According to Dr. Melissa Doft, a plastic surgeon, it’s important to avoid over-exfoliation or anything harsh before microneedling. She advises having your skin in its most calm state beforehand1. Another expert, facial plastic surgeon Kelly V. Bomer, MD, suggests that the skin should be calm and exfoliated, but not peeling prior to the treatment for the best outcome.
- Avoid the Sun – Microneedling makes your skin more sensitive to sun damage. Constantly apply sunscreen during the first two weeks after having a treatment, especially during the hours when the sun’s rays are most intense. Limit your exposure as much as possible to prevent discoloration, dryness, and other side effects of ultraviolet radiation.
- Hydration is key – Keep your skin well hydrated and nourished following microneedling. After you’ve had skin needling, it’s the perfect time to add in extra hydration and use topical anti-aging products, since they will be absorbed more effectively. Many patients like to use serums containing hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and sheet masks on the same day that they’ve had this treatment.
- Wash your hands before touching your face – Reduce your risk of infections by washing your hands before you touch your face and applying antibiotic creams if your dermatologist prescribes them.
- Avoid activities which make your sweat – Your skin needs time to heal, so be gentle with it. You’ll want avoid activities that cause you to sweat and open your pores. Protect your skin during the first 72 hours by avoiding swimming pools, saunas, and heavy workouts at the gym.

What is radiofrequency microneedling?

This energy is delivered deep into the skin via the tiny microneedles, stimulating collagen and elastin production for improved skin tone and texture.
What are the benefits of combining radiofrequency with microneedling?
Adding radiofrequency to traditional microneedling can enhance results by delivering energy directly into the deeper layers of the skin. This stimulates more collagen and elastin production, leading to reduced fine lines and wrinkles, improved skin tightness, and minimized pore size.
Is radiofrequency microneedling safe?
Yes, when performed by certified professionals like our team at Wellaholic, radiofrequency microneedling is considered a safe and effective treatment for various skin types and concerns.
