RF Microneedling

RF Microneedling for Lifted, Refined Skin

Tighten, smooth, and rejuvenate with precision heat and collagen stimulation—crafted by Nexa experts for visibly firmer, radiant results.

What Is RF Microneedling?

RF Microneedling (radiofrequency microneedling) pairs ultra-fine needles with fractionated radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen and elastin at deeper skin levels. The microchannels initiate renewal at the surface, while controlled RF heat tightens and firms below—creating smoother texture, refined pores, and a more lifted, youthful look with minimal downtime.

Why Clients Choose RF Microneedling

  • Firming + Tightening: Heat-stimulated collagen for visible tone and elasticity
  • Texture Refinement: Improves acne scars, enlarged pores, and crepiness
  • Smoother, More Even Skin: Softens fine lines and surface irregularities
  • Minimal Downtime: Advanced results without aggressive recovery

Customizable Depth & Energy: Tailored by Nexa specialists for your skin and goals

How It Works (The Nexa Method)

  1.  Consult & Plan – A thorough skin assessment to define goals, map treatment depth and energy, and set a series plan.
  2. Precision Microneedling – Ultra-fine needles create microchannels at calibrated depths.
  3. Targeted RF Energy – Radiofrequency delivers controlled heat below the surface to contract tissue and stimulate new collagen.

Soothe & Protect – Cooling care, hydrating serums, and SPF send you off refreshed.

Optional Enhancements: Dermaplaning for a glassy canvas, LED light for calm and recovery, neck & décolletage add-ons, and targeted peptide/HA boosters.

What It Treats

  • Mild to moderate skin laxity (jawline, cheeks, neck)

  • Fine lines and etched texture

  • Acne scars and uneven texture

  • Enlarged pores and dull tone

  • Crepiness (cheeks, under-eyes*, neck, and décolletage)


*Under-eye eligibility assessed during consultation.

Treatment Experience & Timeline

Time: ~45–75 minutes (depending on areas)

Comfort: Topical numbing; sensations of pressure/heat are common and well tolerated

Downtime: Pinkness + warmth 24–48 hours; light flaking can occur

Results:

  • Immediate: Subtle post-treatment glow

  • 2–4 weeks: Smoother texture, refined pores

  • 8–12+ weeks: Progressive firming and lifting as collagen rebuilds

Series: Typically 3 sessions spaced ~4–6 weeks apart, with annual maintenance for longevity

RF Microneedling vs. Traditional Microneedling & Lasers

  • RF Microneedling: Mechanical + heat for tightening and texture with minimal downtime; suitable for a wide range of skin tones.

  • Traditional Microneedling: Excellent for texture and pores with no heat-based tightening.

Resurfacing Lasers: Powerful for pigment and surface changes; may involve more downtime and sun precautions.
Many clients
alternate or combine modalities for comprehensive results guided by Nexa providers.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is RF Microneedling?

    RF Microneedling—short for radiofrequency microneedling—is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that combines micro-precision needling with radiofrequency energy. The tiny needles create controlled micro-injuries that trigger natural collagen production, while gentle heat from RF energy tightens skin at deeper levels—refining texture, tone, and firmness for a smoother, lifted appearance.

  • What skin concerns does RF Microneedling treat?

    This treatment targets multiple signs of aging and skin imbalance, including:

    • Fine lines and wrinkles
    • Mild to moderate skin laxity (jawline, cheeks, neck)
    • Acne scars and textural irregularities
    • Enlarged pores and uneven tone
    • Crepiness and thinning skin
    • Dull or tired-looking complexion
    BOOK NOW
  • Is RF Microneedling safe for all skin types?

    Yes. Because RF Microneedling doesn’t rely on heat absorption by pigment (unlike many lasers), it’s generally safe for most skin tones and types. Your Nexa provider will assess your skin during consultation to ensure the safest, most effective treatment plan.

    BOOK NOW
  • Does it hurt?

    Comfort is a priority at Nexa. A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment, making the procedure highly tolerable. You may feel mild warmth or light pressure, but discomfort is minimal and temporary.

    BOOK NOW
  • What is the downtime after RF Microneedling?

    You’ll notice a fresh, luminous glow within days, with progressive improvement in texture and firmness over the next 4–12 weeks as new collagen forms. Results continue to build with each session.

    BOOK NOW
  • How soon will I see results?

    You’ll notice smoother, more radiant skin within 1–2 weeks. As new collagen forms, firmer, tighter, and more refined results continue to develop over 8–12 weeks, with improvements lasting several months or more.

    BOOK NOW
  • How many sessions will I need?

    A series of 3 treatments, spaced about 4–6 weeks apart, is typically recommended for optimal collagen remodeling. Many clients schedule maintenance sessions once or twice a year to preserve long-term results.

    BOOK NOW
  • Can RF Microneedling be combined with other treatments?
