RF microneedling is the use of an energy device that contains a grid of tiny microneedles. After your skin is numbed, the microneedles are inserted into the skin at the depth set by your trained provider. In a matter of seconds, a small amount of “energy” in the device is delivered to that area of skin. The combination of the microneedles and energy delivery cause micro-injuries in the area, which stimulates collagen to be formed. The results are tighter skin, fewer fine lines & wrinkles, and even smaller fat areas (like under the chin).
This will vary depending on the type of RF microneedling device is used at the medspa you visit. At Elevated Aesthetics, our device is Candela’s Profound Matrix Pro, and we are proud to say that this technology comes with little to no downtime! It is set apart from other competitors by having the smallest microneedles on the market, and only requires one pass to achieve reaching all 3 depths of the skin. Other devices require up to 3 passes on the treatment area due to their inability to treat all 3 depths simultaneously. Don’t let the little downtime fool you though; the results are equally amazing or in many instances are better!

Typical results will last 6-12 months, sometimes longer if other modalities are used in combination with RF microneedling or in between treatments, such as PRF, Sculptra, neurotoxins, and/or filler.
We love combining Matrix RFM with the surface-level benefits you reap from the Sublative RF treatment! This combination package is called Matrix Duo, and we have several ways to book and benefit from this powerful duo:
- Matrix Duo – Face OR Neck. Matrix Duo is the Matrix Pro RF Microneedling Treatment AND the Sublative Radiofrequency Treatment combined. This ultimate collagen-stimulating & wrinkle-reducing treatment is safe for all skin tones & types. Please note this is ONLY for full face or neck, NOT both.

- Melanin-Smart™ Skin Renewal Treatment. Designed with melanated skin in mind (but appropriate for ALL skin types), this energy-based treatment reverses the signs of aging, tightens skin, & stimulates collagen while maintaining safety in skin of color with full face & neck Matrix Duo.
Topical boosters are also highly recommended. Take advantage of the micro-channels created by the RF microneedling process and get some incredible add-ons at the same time, depending on your goals. These boosters include:
- Ariessence PDGF
- Platelet-Rich Fibrin
- VAMP
We use a topical numbing cream to keep it comfortable. Most patients’ discomfort ranges from a 0-5 out of 10, and it is usually described as a “zing,”or “zap.” Some areas can be “spicy” like above the lips. However, we’ve never had anyone abandon treatment due to discomfort!
