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.
