What is RF microneedling?

RF microneedling is an innovative skin rejuvenation procedure that combines traditional microneedling treatment with radiofrequency energy.

MidAmerica Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa uses the state-of-the-art Sylfirm X device. This treatment creates tiny punctures in the skin surface while simultaneously delivering radiofrequency energy to the dermis. This dual action stimulates your body's natural collagen and elastin production, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.

Sylfirm X offers advantages over traditional RF microneedling devices, providing impressive results with less downtime and discomfort.

Radiant Renewal

What is the RF microneedling procedure like?

Your RF microneedling experience begins with a personalized consultation with Dr. Diederich. He'll assess your skin and discuss your goals to create a tailored treatment plan.

On the day of your procedure, we'll prepare your skin by cleansing it and applying a topical numbing cream for your comfort. The treatment involves gently moving the Sylfirm X device across the targeted area, creating micro-injuries, and delivering RF energy to stimulate collagen production. Depending on the treatment area, the entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes. Once complete, we'll apply Benev exosomes to the treatment area. Rich in natural growth factors, exosomes amplify the skin’s natural healing process by enhancing collagen production, accelerating cell regeneration, and improving overall skin texture and elasticity. Together, RF microneedling and exosomes provide a powerful synergy for advanced skin rejuvenation.
