Radiofrequency microneedling can be a good next step if your skincare routine isn’t working and your skin still feels “stuck”—for example, if it has uneven texture, big pores, early laxity, or acne marks that won’t go away. It uses radiofrequency energy and microneedling to make controlled changes in the deeper layers of skin. This encourages collagen remodeling, which makes the skin look smoother, firmer, and more even over time.
Dr. Ahmad Othman doesn’t use a one-size-fits-all approach to radiofrequency microneedling at Derma One Aesthetic Center. Instead, he customizes the treatment to how your skin really works. We change the depth, intensity, and technique based on how sensitive you are, how quickly you heal, and what you want to improve. This way, the results look natural and not over-treated.
People often use this treatment for problems with “skin texture,” especially when there are a lot of them at once. Radiofrequency microneedling may enhance the appearance of:
At Derma One Aesthetic Center, they will look at your skin and see if it is healthy enough for a combined plan, like skin boosters or professional facials, to work better.
Microneedling creates micro-channels that activate the skin’s repair response. Radiofrequency energy adds controlled heat at targeted depths. Together, they encourage collagen and elastin renewal in the deeper layers, which is why the results are not immediate but improve progressively.
The key is precision. Too superficial may limit results, too aggressive can increase irritation and downtime. This is why planning with Dr. Ahmad Othman matters.
A skin evaluation and a clear plan will start your visit. Comfort measures are used when needed, and then the device is used in a set way to treat the target areas. The length of the session will depend on the size of the area and the method you choose to address your issues.
After that, you should expect some redness and swelling. Some patients report a warm feeling that is similar to being in the sun. These effects usually go away as the skin calms down.
Most patients can get back to their normal activities quickly, but your skin may be red for a little while, and you may be told to stay away from intense heat, heavy exercise, and active skincare ingredients for a short time.
Results get better over time. The first thing that many patients notice is that their skin feels smoother. After that, their pores look clearer and their skin surface looks more refined. As collagen remodeling continues, improvements in firmness and scarring often happen over the course of several weeks. Depending on how serious the problem is and how your skin reacts, you may need to go to a series of sessions.
Radiofrequency microneedling isn’t a treatment that works for everyone. The settings and the plan are all affected by the thickness of the skin, the risk of pigmentation, the pattern of scars, and the sensitivity of the skin. Dr. Ahmad Othman at Derma One Aesthetic Center puts a lot of emphasis on controlled, evidence-based parameters to get better results without being too aggressive.
The goal is still the same: skin that looks healthier, has a smoother texture, and results that look natural on your face.
