What is Radiofrequency Microneedling?
Dr. James Leffingwell uses an exceptional technique known as radiofrequency (RF) microneedling that creates gorgeous outcomes for our patients in Midlothian, TX. RF remedies have been around for many years and are popular in the cosmetic industry for their skin tightening effects. This particular type of therapy utilizes heat to promote the creation of collagen deep within the skin to reveal a firmer, smoother surface. This technique is combined with microneedling in order to optimize the results of both treatments. At Refining Beauty, we frequently incorporate this new process into our patients' skin treatments using state-of-the-art Morpheus8™ technology to produce healthier skin, a smoother texture, and a luminous complexion.

How is RF Microneedling Performed?
Microneedling uses a tool with small needles on the end that's rolled carefully against the skin to puncture and create microinjuries that disrupt the tissues and produce collagen. Some also refer to this as collagen induction treatment. New skin begins to grow as the skin heals, leaving the surface looking and feeling brighter, smoother, and more rejuvenated. The procedure itself is quite simple. The handheld Morpheus8 device works by providing short bursts of RF energy via a collection of 25 sterilized, golden microneedles. This energy is transmitted through the needles, which concurrently puncture your skin and return the electrodes into the skin. The RF energy warms at levels that offer cumulative and ongoing results.
RF Microneedling With Morpheus8 FAQ
Does RF microneedling with Morpheus8 hurt?
Because a topical anesthetic will be applied to the treatment area, you should have minimal discomfort during the treatment session. During the procedure, we will make sure to ask you if you are comfortable. After the numbing agent wears off, you may experience mild soreness for a short time as your skin is healing itself.
Can I have RF microneedling if I have darker skin?
Yes. RF microneedling can safely treat all colors and types of skin without increased risk of side effects, provided you are healthy enough and qualify for the procedure.
How many RF microneedling treatments should I get?
The ideal number of Morpheus8 treatments will vary by patient. Some Midlothian, TX area individuals may need more sessions compared to other patients. On average, most patients receive 3 – 4 treatments at one-month intervals.
Can I combine RF microneedling with other treatments?
Yes. You might consider combining a Morpheus8 treatment plan with wrinkle relaxers or dermal fillers, which can give you an even more radiant look on top of your improved complexion from RF microneedling. During your consultation with Dr. Leffingwell or a member of his team, you will be asked about all your aesthetic goals.
