Microneedling
Radiofrequency Tightening Pixel8-RF at Ageless Health Group
Radiofrequency (RF) skin tightening technology meets microneedling skin rejuvenation in the new RF microneedling PiXel8-RF system, now available at Ageless Health Group, Ontario CA. The microneedling system included in this procedure allows for deeper penetration of RF energy, delivering its skin tightening benefits to three layers of skin: epidermis, dermis, and sub-dermis. Anti-aging and rejuvenation benefits are more dramatic than with RF or microneedling alone.
How Does RF Microneedling Work?
RF Microneedling combines radiofrequency skin tightening technology with microneedling treatments. Micro-needles penetrate the skin to deliver RF energy deep into three dermal layers, stimulating collagen and elastin regeneration. The micro-injuries stimulate collagen production and the body’s natural healing processes, reducing the appearance of scars, fine lines, and uneven skin tone. The RF energy also stimulates collagen while lifting and tightening the skin.
Your Procedure
After we apply a topical numbing cream, we will use our PiXel8-RF wand to deliver the RF energy deep into the three layers of skin.The treatment itself takes 20-30 minutes; with pre-procedure numbing and aftercare, the entire visit will take about 1 hour.
RF Microneedling Expected Results and Follow-up
PiXel8-RF patients can expect minimal downtime. Facial redness, some tenderness, minor swelling and bruising, and skin shedding are the most common after-effects of RF microneedling. The microneedling portion stimulates skin cell turnover, which causes the skin to peel and flake. This only lasts 1-3 days. The other side-effects will subside during that time as well. Your skin may feel like you have a mild sunburn.

If you have questions about this procedure, please contact us to schedule a consultation and speak with our team. It’s important to discuss any procedure with a professional to understand what to expect for your individual needs, as no treatment is right for everyone. In the meantime, you can gain a general understanding of our new PiXel8-RF device below.
How is PiXel8-RF different?
Traditional radiofrequency (RF) treatments, such as Thermage, provide patients with amazing skin tightening results. It’s good for virtually any area on the body. The RF energy is delivered via a handheld wand that is applied topically. The energy penetrates through the top layer of skin without any physical penetration.
Traditional microneedling creates micro-injuries to the skin, stimulating the body’s natural healing processes. It jumpstarts the production of collagen and elastin, smoothing skin tone and texture. Skin nourishing ingredients also more deeply penetrate the skin via microneedling, improving results of those skin care products. Acne scars, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and other imperfections can be treated using a series of microneedling treatments.
