Frequently Asked Questions
How many days should I plan to recover after RF microneedling?
Most people return to normal activities within 24-48 hours. Your skin might look slightly pink, like a mild sunburn, but this fades quickly. Many people are back to their regular routine the next day, though we recommend avoiding intense workouts for 48 hours.
Will I need special skincare products after my treatment?
For the first few days, simple is better. We’ll recommend gentle, hydrating products to use during recovery. After that, products with growth factors or peptides can enhance your results. You don’t need to buy a whole new skincare line – we’ll help you adapt what you already use.
Is Genius® RF microneedling better than regular microneedling?
While both treatments create micro-channels in the skin, Genius® adds radiofrequency energy that heats the deeper skin layers. This combination stimulates up to three times more collagen production compared to traditional microneedling, making it particularly effective for skin tightening and scar reduction.
Can Genius® RF microneedling help with active acne?
We typically recommend waiting until active breakouts have cleared. However, the treatment works wonderfully on acne scarring and can help regulate oil production over time, potentially reducing future breakouts. We can suggest complementary treatments to clear active acne before starting your RF microneedling sessions.
How long do the results from Genius® RF microneedling last?
Most clients enjoy improvements that last 1-2 years. The collagen your body produces after treatment is yours to keep, but natural aging continues. Many people choose to have a maintenance session once yearly to preserve and enhance their results.
