SCARLET RF MICRONEEDLINGin San Diego

Scarlet RF microneedling takes the innovative, collagen-building art form of microneedling and elevates it to a whole new level by introducing the power of radiofrequency energy. The treatment is a transformative solution for lines, wrinkles, sagging skin, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, and acne scarring.

Collagen, the all-important elixir of youth, is a protein made naturally by the body. It promotes skin softness, hydration, and resilience. As we age, our production of collagen slows down, and the complexion may grow dull and depleted. Microneedling on its own helps to stimulate collagen production, but by adding radiofrequency energy to this tried and true cosmetic procedure, Scarlet RF microneedling in San Diego takes skin rejuvenation and regeneration to new heights.

What is Scarlet RF microneedling?

Scarlet RF microneedling combines traditional microneedling with brief pulses of radiofrequency energy beneath the skin’s superficial layer to dramatically reduce the signs of aging. Minimally invasive and effective, Scarlet RF achieves an array of aesthetic goals by harnessing the body’s innate collagen-producing mechanism. Not only is it instrumental in correcting wrinkles and loss of skin elasticity but it also helps to fade scars and stretch marks.

How does Scarlet RF microneedling work?

Scarlet RF is a revolutionary, FDA-approved treatment option for restoring radiant, firm, youthful skin. The device’s advanced engineering provides optimal skin toning without downtime, discomfort, or side effects. The proprietary “Na Effect” means the Scarlet RF system relies on alternating bipolar signal energy that creates independent tissue coagulation around each needle electrode. This electrocoagulation method helps regenerate new stores of collagen and elastin, which in turn maximizes the skin’s firmness and resilience. Scarlet RF microneedling in San Diego is ideal for treating a range of aesthetic concerns, including drooping eyebrows, crow’s feet, acne, acne scarring, rosacea, stretch marks, melasma, lines, nasolabial folds, and more.

What happens during my microneedling session?

During your Scarlet RF treatment, your skin will first be numbed, allowing your procedure to be undergone in complete comfort. The session itself takes around 30 minutes to perform on the face and around 15 minutes to perform on the neck. Your provider will pass the device over the treatment zones, gently stamping the skin to boost collagen output. Patients may feel mild pressure or warmth during their session. However, Scarlet RF is considered painless and non-invasive.

What can I expect after Scarlet RF microneedling?

After Scarlet RF, there is little to no downtime, so patients can quickly get back to their normal activities. Minor swelling or redness may occur but these side effects will dissipate within around 24-72 hours. Visible skin tightening may occur immediately after your session, but up to three treatments are suggested for optimal results. Changes last 6-12 months on average.

Who is a good candidate for microneedling?

Unlike numerous other microneedling and laser solutions, Scarlet RF microneedling is designed with all skin types in mind. Every skin type on the Fitzpatrick scale can safely undergo treatment with Scarlet RF. There is no risk of pigmentation changes or uneven results. As with every cosmetic procedure, however, it’s essential that you undergo a detailed consultation with our knowledgeable and caring team. Many patients end up undergoing a combination treatment that involves Scarlet RF as well as other strategic aesthetic solutions in order to achieve comprehensive improvement in their skin’s tone, texture, and clarity.
