RF Microneedling Treatment by The Skin Clinic in Houston Texas

RF Microneedling in Houston, TX: Smooth, Tighten, and Rejuvenate Your Skin

At The Skin Clinic in Houston, TX, we offer RF microneedling, a powerful skin-rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. This advanced procedure tightens, firms, and revitalizes the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin deep beneath the surface, making it one of the most effective non-surgical options for smoother, youthful-looking skin.

If you’re looking for a safe, proven way to address wrinkles, sagging skin, or texture issues, RF microneedling in Houston delivers dramatic results with minimal downtime.

What Are the Benefits of RF Microneedling?

RF microneedling enhances traditional microneedling by adding radiofrequency energy that gently heats the skin’s deeper layers, triggering collagen remodeling and tissue tightening.

Key Benefits Include:

  • Firms and Tightens Skin: Reduces sagging and improves elasticity.
  • Smooths Texture and Fine Lines: Improves skin tone and overall radiance.
  • Reduces Acne Scars and Enlarged Pores: Helps refine uneven texture.
  • Stimulates Natural Collagen Production: Encourages long-term skin renewal.
  • Minimal Downtime: Faster healing compared to ablative lasers like CO₂.
  • Safe for Most Skin Types: Effective year-round with less risk of pigmentation.

How Does RF Microneedling Work?

Your RF microneedling treatment at The Skin Clinic begins with a personalized consultation and skin assessment.

  • Preparation: Your provider applies a numbing cream to ensure a comfortable experience.
  • Treatment: Using our FDA-cleared RF microneedling device, ultrafine needles create microchannels in the skin while delivering controlled radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis.
  • Collagen Activation: The heat stimulates collagen remodeling, tightening and lifting the skin from within.

Most clients notice improved tone and smoothness after one session, with optimal results after a series of treatments.

Device Used at The Skin Clinic

At The Skin Clinic, we use the latest generation RF microneedling technology designed for precision, safety, and consistent results. Our device allows for adjustable depth and energy levels, ensuring we can customize each session to your specific skin type and concern areas, whether that’s sagging cheeks, acne scars, or fine lines around the mouth and eyes.

This advanced system ensures uniform heat delivery, stimulating collagen without damaging the surface layer of your skin.

RF Microneedling Treatment by The Skin Clinic in Houston Texas

Microneedling is a skincare treatment that uses needles to create micro-injuries on the skin. This technique stimulates the body’s natural healing response, which increases the production of collagen and elastin.

In radiofrequency microneedling (RF), the addition of energy is added for increased collagen promotion, fat destruction, and skin tightening. Microneedling with radiofrequency is also a fantastic treatment for acne scarring.

  • Avoid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs like aspirin, Motrin, Advil, ibuprofen, or any other product that isn't Tylenol or acetaminophen) for two weeks before treatment to reduce the risk of bruising.

  • Take antiviral medication beginning one day before and continuing for the duration of your treatment if you have a history of cold sores.
  • Stop all topical acid-based treatments (such as glycolic, alpha, or beta hydroxy acids), retinol, Retin-A, or other similar products one week before your treatment, and for one week after your treatment.

RF Microneedling FAQs

You can expect 48 hours of swelling and redness. Do not exercise or conduct any other activity that could raise your core body temperature for 24 hours following your treatment, including super-hot showers or getting into a sauna. Do not apply make-up for 24 hours.

Patients may experience redness and swelling after treatment, which usually subsides within 24-hours or less.

  • Excess submental volume (double chin)
  • Neck laxity (skin tightening)
  • Forehead wrinkles
  • Acne scars
  • Jowling (marionette lines)
  • Under eyes
  • Arm skin tightening
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Stretch marks

The number of treatments recommended depends on our treatment goals. For most patients, 3 treatments are recommended. For acne patients, up to 6 treatments may be desired.

Visible results can be seen within a few days, but typically after 4-6 weeks the most noticeable results appear. Improvements continue up to three months after treatment.

  • Pacemaker or internal defibrillator
  • Superficial metal or other implants in the treatment area.
  • Current or history of skin cancer, including pre-malignant moles.
  • History of any kind of cancer.
  • History of keloids.

Because RF microneedling stimulates your own body to build collagen, the effects are long-lasting, or “semi permanent.” Your results wont go away over night, but the treatment wont stop aging, and you can still gain weight in the treatment areas.

No! We love microneedling with rf due to its effective, natural results. The treatment will rejuvenate the tone, texture, and complexion of the skin.

RF Microneedling treatments are not recommended if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
