What Is RF Microneedling?

Microneedling uses a tool to create tiny punctures in the skin. This mimics an injury and stimulates the body's natural process of producing collagen and elastin. Radio waves enhance the effects of microneedling and they are often used together for the best results. The microneedling tool looks like a pen with a group of tiny needles at the end. Areas where your skin is thinner may be more sensitive to the needles, but you should not be in pain during a treatment. The handheld tool allows us to target fine lines, wrinkles, and visible scars.

After a microneedling treatment, we apply recovery gel to the skin. Follow all the aftercare instructions from your dermatologist for the best results, and you will see the full benefits of your microneedling treatment after 2-4 weeks when swelling has subsided.


What Are The Benefits?

When you make a radio frequency microneedling appointment in Baton Rouge, LA, stimulating collagen production has several benefits. Your body reacts the same to a tiny wound as it does to a large wound, triggering the healing process and producing lasting effects, as the body continues to produce collagen and elastin for up to three months.


Microneedling is a minimally invasive way to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and stretch marks. It is most commonly performed on the face to reduce wrinkles and acne scarring and improve skin texture, but it can also be used to reduce stretch marks in areas like the legs, chest, or butt. If you want to improve the texture of your skin or reduce scars, you could benefit from a microneedling treatment.

As a dermatologist, I’m always looking at the bigger picture when it comes to the health and appearance of my patients. Recently, many people have been turning to weight loss medications like Ozempic, and while I think these medications are a great tool for those looking to lose weight and improve their overall health, there’s one side effect that’s been getting a lot of attention: facial volume loss, or what some are calling “Ozempic Face.” “Ozempic Face” refers to the noticeable reduction in facial fat that can occur as a result of rapid weight loss. While shedding pounds can be a great achievement, it can sometimes leave the face looking hollow, gaunt, or less youthful. This happens because fat naturally cushions and shapes the face, and when weight is lost too quickly, the face can lose that fullness, leading to an aged or tired appearance. As someone who works closely with my patients to achieve both their aesthetic and health goals, I’m always eager to offer solutions for this. The good news is that the loss of facial volume can easily be addressed with dermal fillers. These non-invasive treatments are incredibly effective at restoring the volume that may be lost in the cheeks, under-eye area, and jawline. Dermal fillers can help bring back the youthful contours of the face, enhancing the overall appearance without the need for surgery. Dermal fillers are a safe and highly effective way to restore a fuller, natural look to the face, helping my patients look as great as they feel after their weight loss journey.  So, if you're experiencing volume loss in your face after weight loss with medications like Ozempic, don’t worry. With a simple dermal filler treatment, we can bring back that youthful, vibrant appearance you desire, while still supporting your overall weight loss and health goals.
