What is RF Microneedling with Erbium Glass Laser?

RF Microneedling with Erbium Glass Laser is a US FDA-approved treatment that combines two non-ablative fractional technologies into a single device. This powerful synergy can be used together or separately, offering tailored solutions for different skin types and concerns.

While both RF Microneedling and the Erbium Glass Laser can be effective individually, combining them is recommended for optimal results. The treatment begins with RF microneedling to stimulate collagen and the growth of new tissue, followed by the Erbium Glass laser for targeting the inner epidermis and enhancing the effects of the treatment.

How Does RF Microneedling with Erbium Glass Laser Work

RF Microneedling uses gold-plated, medical-grade microneedles to deliver controlled RF energy at various depths (ranging from 0.5mm to 3.5mm). As these needles penetrate the skin’s surface, they create controlled micro-injuries, triggering the body’s natural healing process and stimulating collagen production.

The result is firmer, smoother skin with improved texture and elasticity. The customizable needle depths also enhance the treatment’s efficacy for issues like scarring and photoaging on the face and body.

Benefits include:

  • Skin tightening
  • Non-surgical facelift
  • Wrinkle reduction
  • Pore reduction
  • Improvement of acne scars and other types of scarring
  • Treatment for spider veins and stretch marks

The 1540 nm fractional Erbium Glass Laser is a subdermal skin resurfacing treatment that targets the skin’s inner layer without damaging the epidermis. It uses fractional laser beams that are delivered as multiple columns, which then create controlled micro-injuries in the dermis and stimulate collagen faster.

This helps with skin renewal, removing old and damaged skin and allowing more collagen to grow in the deeper layers. It can improve scars, wrinkles, and blemishes in small to large skin areas. The Erbium Glass Laser also allows for a gentler skin resurfacing procedure that enables the treated area to heal faster.

Benefits include:

  • Non-ablative skin resurfacing
  • Skin lifting and tightening
  • Wrinkle reduction
  • Improved skin tone and texture
  • Treatment for active acne, acne scars, and atrophic scars

FAQs

Is RF Microneedling with Erbium Glass Laser safe?

Yes, the procedure uses factional tissue heating instead of bulk heating (a non-fractionated approach that applies heat to the skin or dermis). This only means that your skin is protected from the heat. There is also the use of the fine medical-grade microneedles that can help improve treatment efficacy.
The Erbium Glass fractional laser, furthermore, delivers laser beams deep into the skin. It induces dermal collagen remodeling while having no ablative effect or damage done to the epidermis.

Does the procedure hurt?

Before the treatment, a topical anesthetic or numbing cream will be applied to the skin to improve patient comfort. The procedure is not a painful process, but there may be some sort of discomfort depending on the patient.

Is there downtime?

There is some mild redness or swelling following the procedure. Patients can expect the redness to subside quickly in the first hour of the treatment. The remaining redness and swelling will go away in the next 24 to 36 hours.
All side effects are temporary and should resolve within a few days. This means that patients can immediately go back to their indoor or work activities immediately and return to outdoor activities or exercising after five to seven days.

How many treatments will I need?

While many patients are able to see improvements after just a single session, the recommended number of treatments for optimal results is 3 to 5, scheduled a month apart. A consultation with our aesthetic doctor will let you know how much treatments are required for your individual concerns.

What result can I expect?

RF Microneedling with Erbium Glass Laser patients usually experience continuous improvement for six months after the last treatment. Within a month of treatment, patients are likely to experience improvement in elasticity, firmness, smoothness, and texture.
