As we age, our skin’s natural processes slow down, leading to signs of aging such as sagging skin, slower healing responses, age spots, and unwanted texture. Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is a safe and proven method of skin rejuvenation that promotes collagen and elastin production to combat these signs of aging.
By creating microinjuries in the skin and superheating it with radio frequency energy, RF microneedling stimulates collagen production and tightens skin tissue, leaving you with a smoother, healthier-looking complexion.

Longview’s Top-Rated Advantages of RF Microneedling
RF microneedling is a state-of-the-art technology that combines the benefits of microneedling with the power of radio frequency for intense cell restoration. With minimal downtime and a comfortable, stress-free experience, RF microneedling is a great option for anyone looking to improve the appearance of their skin.
How Does RF Microneedling Work?
The RF microneedling process involves using a hand-held device with tiny needles to create very fine holes in the skin. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, leading to tightened skin, repaired scars, and reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
RF treatment takes it one step further by applying radiofrequency waves to the skin, which are absorbed as heat. This causes the lower layers of the skin to tighten, promoting future production of collagen and elastin, resulting in outstanding results. RF microneedling can treat a variety of skin conditions, leaving you with brighter, smoother skin that looks more youthful and radiant.

Longview’s RF Microneedling FAQs

Radiofrequency (RF) energy is a versatile treatment option that can address various skin concerns. RF is primarily used to treat skin laxity and is most effective for individuals with mild to moderate sagging of facial tissues, typically in their mid-thirties to fifties.
With RF energy, the forehead can be lifted and tightened, the under-eye area thickened and smoothed, and the cheeks lifted and refined. The skin of the neck can also be tightened, reducing wrinkles and sagging.
RF can enhance other treatments, such as photo-rejuvenation, acne treatment, and cellulite reduction, making it a valuable tool in aesthetic medicine.
To be a good candidate for microneedling, you should be in relatively good health, not have an active acne breakout, and not have any underlying health conditions. Additionally, you should not be pregnant or taking anticoagulants, as these conditions may contraindicate the treatment.
While RF can produce significant results, it may not be suitable for individuals with significant amounts of redundant or sagging skin, typically seen in older patients over 65. A consultation is often the best way to determine whether or not you are a good candidate for RF microneedling.
The number of treatments needed for RF treatment of the face and neck depends on the individual patient’s needs. Six to eight sessions are typically required for the neck, and four to six sessions are recommended for the face. Results from RF treatment typically begin to accrue around the third or fourth treatment.
When combined with microneedling, bipolar RF can produce even better results, particularly for patients with textural issues and laxity, with three to four treatments usually being the most effective.
When radiofrequency (RF) energy is applied to the skin, it can cause heat to be produced at the site of maximum resistance, which can be used to cut or coagulate tissue. This heat can also be used to tighten and improve the underlying tissue structure, resulting in changes to skin texture and reduced fine lines and wrinkles. As the RF energy penetrates deep into the skin, it can affect the deeper dermis and subcutaneous layers, leading to improved skin appearance and texture.
