RF Microneedling in Sandy Springs
Microneedling with Radio-Frequency
Pixel8 RF is an advanced microneedling system that takes skin rejuvenation to the next level with radiofrequency technology. Like traditional microneedling, it creates tiny injuries to stimulate collagen and elastin production. However, unlike standard methods, it penetrates deeper, reaching all three layers of skin to enhance tissue remodeling. The Arctic Chiller feature cools the skin during treatment, providing a more comfortable experience.
And the best part about this treatment? It is safe for all skin types!

Frequently Asked Questions
How does RF microneedling differ from traditional microneedling?
RF microneedling builds on traditional microneedling by using radiofrequency energy to reach deeper skin layers. This extra level of stimulation helps accelerate collagen and elastin production, leading to firmer, smoother, and more refined skin over time.
Is RF microneedling safe for all skin types?
Yes, RF microneedling is safe across all skin types, including those prone to hyperpigmentation. The treatment uses carefully controlled radiofrequency energy, reducing the likelihood of burns or discoloration while promoting effective skin rejuvenation.
Will I experience pain during RF microneedling?
Most individuals in Sandy Springs experience minimal discomfort thanks to a pre-treatment numbing cream and the cooling effects of the Arctic Chiller. While some warmth or a light prickling sensation may be felt, the procedure is generally well-tolerated.
How long does it take to see results from RF microneedling?
Initial signs of improvement, such as tighter and more even-toned skin, often appear within weeks. Since collagen production continues, results will progressively enhance over several months, revealing firmer and more youthful-looking skin.
Can RF microneedling treat scars and stretch marks?
Yes, RF microneedling is an effective treatment for acne scars and stretch marks. The procedure enhances collagen production, which helps repair damaged skin and improve its overall texture and tone.
How many RF microneedling sessions will I need?
Most clients achieve noticeable improvements after 3-6 treatments, spaced about 4-6 weeks apart. The exact number of sessions depends on the severity of the skin concern and will be determined during your consultation.
Is there any downtime after RF microneedling?
Downtime is minimal. Mild redness, tightness, or sensitivity may occur for 1-2 days, similar to a light sunburn. Some individuals may develop minor scabbing, which heals quickly, allowing them to continue their normal routines.
