At Foglietti Fostyk Plastic Surgery, we are dedicated to offering the most advanced and effective skincare treatments to help our patients achieve radiant, youthful skin. One of the standout treatments we provide is ENDYMED RF + microneedling, featuring the cutting-edge Intensif RF microneedling system. This safe, quick, and innovative treatment combines the power of radiofrequency (RF) energy with microneedling to deliver transformative results.
What is ENDYMED RF + Microneedling?
ENDYMED RF with microneedling is a synergistic treatment that utilizes radiofrequency energy and microneedling to stimulate the skin’s natural healing process and promote the production of collagen and elastin. This combination not only enhances the texture and tone of the skin but also effectively addresses a range of skin concerns.
Intensif RF microneedling is at the heart of this treatment. It uses tiny, gold-plated needles to deliver patented 3DEEP RF energy into the dermal layers of the skin, without affecting the top layer of the skin. This targeted energy heats the underlying tissues, which initiates the production of new collagen and elastin.
The process begins with a thorough cleansing of the skin followed by the application of a topical numbing cream to ensure comfort. The Intensif handpiece is then moved across the target areas, allowing the microneedles to precisely penetrate the skin and deliver RF energy at controlled depths.
We typically recommend three treatment sessions to achieve optimal results.
Benefits of ENDYMED RF + Microneedling
- Skin Tightening and Lifting: As new collagen forms, patients notice a significant improvement in skin tightness and firmness. The skin appears more lifted, with a noticeable reduction in sagging.
- Texture Improvement: This treatment effectively reduces the appearance of scars, including acne scars, and smooths out textural irregularities like stretch marks, leaving the skin smoother and more refined.
- Wrinkle Reduction: Fine lines and deeper wrinkles are visibly softened, thanks to the enhanced collagen production, making this an excellent treatment for aging skin.
- Minimized Pore Size: The tightening effect of the collagen boost also helps in reducing the size of pores, which contributes to a smoother and more even complexion.
- Enhanced Skin Tone: By targeting the deeper layers of the skin, ENDYMED RF + microneedling helps in reducing hyperpigmentation and promoting a more uniform skin tone.
Who is a Good Candidate for RF Microneedling?

FAQs
What is ENDYMED RF microneedling?
ENDYMED RF microneedling is an advanced, non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment that combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with microneedling. The device uses ultrafine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin while simultaneously delivering RF energy deep into the dermal layers. This process stimulates collagen production, tightens existing collagen fibers, and helps improve the texture, tone, and overall appearance of your skin.
What skin concerns can RF microneedling treat?
RF microneedling can effectively treat a range of skin concerns, including:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars
- Skin laxity
- Stretch marks
- Uneven tone and texture
- Enlarged pores
It can be used on both the face and body and is safe for a broad range of skin types and tones.
How does RF microneedling work?
The treatment works by delivering radiofrequency energy through microneedles directly into the deeper layers of your skin. The controlled heat and micro-injuries stimulate your body’s natural healing response, leading to the generation of new collagen and elastin. This helps your skin appear firmer, smoother, and more youthful over time.
What should you expect during your treatment?
During your appointment, a topical anesthetic will be applied to ensure comfort, we also offer nitrous or “laughing gas” if needed. The procedure typically lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area. While you may feel a mild prickling or warming sensation, discomfort is usually minimal. Some redness and swelling can occur post-treatment and usually subside within a few days.
How many microneedling sessions are needed for optimal results?
Most individuals benefit from a series of 3 to 5 treatments, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Some improvement may be visible after a single session, but cumulative results develop as new collagen forms. Your provider at Foglietti Fostyk Plastic Surgery will design a customized treatment plan based on your specific skin goals.
Is RF microneedling safe for all skin types?
Yes, RF microneedling is considered safe for most skin types and tones, including darker complexions. Because the energy is delivered below the skin’s surface, there’s minimal risk of hyperpigmentation or surface damage.
What is the downtime after treatment?
Most patients experience mild redness and slight swelling for 24 to 72 hours. You can typically return to normal daily activities within 1 to 2 days. Gentle skincare and sun protection are recommended during the healing process.
