Frequently asked questions about radiofrequency microneedling

FAQ

• How does radiofrequency microneedling work?

  During RF microneedling treatment, the microneedles penetrate the skin and emit heat impulses. This heat promotes skin regeneration and effectively combats wrinkles, scars and sagging skin. Dermacare Vienna offers a comparable method to the Morpheus 8 treatment, which is known for its impressive results.

• Which skin problems can be treated with RF microneedling?

  RF Microneedling is versatile and can be used for a variety of skin problems, including:

  • Wrinkles
  • Sagging skin
  • Scars (including acne and surgical scars)
  • Stretch marks
  • Pore reduction
  • Pigmentation disorders
  • even fat deposits (such as an annoying double chin)

• How does the RF microneedling treatment at Dermacare work?

  Before the treatment, the skin is thoroughly cleansed and an anaesthetic cream is applied. The Fusion Tip device is then used to ensure an even depth of treatment. Microneedles deliver radio frequency pulses into the skin to stimulate collagen formation. After the treatment, a soothing mask is applied to nourish the skin and reduce irritation.

• Is RF microneedling painful?

  Thanks to the anaesthetic cream, treatment with Dermacare is virtually painless. Patients usually only feel a slight sensation of warmth during the treatment. The special 3D microneedles and Fusion Tip technology ensure gentle treatment without any major discomfort.

• How long does an RF microneedling treatment take?

  A session usually lasts between 20 and 45 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. Thanks to the efficient treatment technique, the procedure is quick yet thorough.

• How often should I have an RF microneedling treatment?

  To achieve the best results, 2-3 sessions at intervals of 4-8 weeks are recommended. For long-term maintenance, a radiofrequency microneedling refresher treatment is recommended about once a year.

• What care is necessary after RF microneedling?

  After the radiofrequency microneedling treatment, it is important to take good care of the skin and protect it from UV radiation. At Dermacare, a soothing Hyaluron Hydra Facial mask is applied after the treatment to hydrate and soothe the skin.

• When will I see the first results?

  The first improvements are often visible immediately after the first radiofrequency microneedling treatment. However, the final results, such as firmer and younger-looking skin, develop over a period of 2-3 months, as collagen production is continuously stimulated.

• Are there any side effects with radiofrequency microneedling?

  Slight redness, swelling or a feeling of warmth may occur after the treatment, but these usually subside within 12 to 48 hours. In rare cases, skin irritation or minor bruising may occur. It is important to take good care of the skin after the treatment and to protect it from direct sunlight.
