About RF Microneedling
Our esthetician's use the minimally invasive PiXel8-RF to perform radiofrequency (RF) microneedling under the direction of Mark Petroff, MD. This device produced outstanding results for patients seeking smoother, softer skin. RF remedies have existed for a number of years and are popular in the cosmetic industry for skin tightening. This specific type of treatment incorporates heat to encourage the creation of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin and creates a more even, smoother surface. PiXel8-RF microneedling may be used in conjunction with other facial treatments to optimize end results and speed the healing process. At Premier Laser + Skin, we frequently add this new process to our Lake Oswego, OR patient's skin treatments to produce firmer skin, a much smoother texture, and a glowing complexion.
Ideal Candidates
Patients who are 40 years of age or older and are starting to notice age spots, discoloration, wrinkles, fine lines, and other skin flaws (including sunlight exposure) may be ideal candidates for treatment with the nonsurgical PiXel8-RF protocol. RF microneedling is a wonderful choice for those who want to:
- Tighten the skin, producing a more refreshed appearance
- Boost skin feel, tone, and pigment
- Heal skin imperfections, like blood vessels and discoloration
- Minimize the appearance of age spots and sun damage
- Treat acne scars and other forms of scarring
- Create a smoother look and feel for the skin
- Rejuvenate the skin for a younger, more luminous look
What to Expect
RF microneedling sessions take place inside the Premier Laser + Skin facility and begin with the application of a topical numbing cream to help minimize any discomfort. During the procedure, the handpiece will be directed over the target area, repeating the process until the desired results have been reached. Patients should anticipate minute pinpoint scabs to appear within 24 – 72 hours after treatment, which will naturally shed when the inherent skin has recovered. However, the PiXel8-RF process generally requires very little downtime. While some patients notice smoother, softer skin after the initial RF microneedling procedure, the results typically become visible as the skin heals over the next few weeks. To optimize outcomes, a series of up to four treatments may be completed about 3 – 4 weeks apart.
Petroff Center Plastic Surgery and Medi-Spa Reviews
Dr Petroff is an extremely professional and highly skilled plastic surgeon. I took two years to do research before choosing him to perform a face and neck lift, along with brow lift and upper/lower blepharoplasty. His work is stellar, and I am very pleased with the outcome.His entire staff is top notch. They were warm, patient, and compassionate toward me as I went through my healing process. It's been almost two years, and I am continually impressed by the natural results. I look even better than I did ten years ago!Thank you Dr Petroff and all the staff at Petroff Center.
It has been such a wonderful experience working with Dr. Petroff and his staff. I had surgery in August 2024 and I could not have asked for a better team to take care of me, from the office staff, to the anesthesiologist and nurses, to Dr. Petroff's extreme skill in surgery and creating a natural outcome, not to mention the roses they sent home with me after surgery ( what a nice, thoughtful touch ) I could not be more happy with my results, and I would highly recommend the Petroff Center, if you are thinking of any facial surgery. They are the best, and I did my research :)
Dr. Mark Petroff has given me excellent results after 16 years of surgery. He produces a natural look that lasts and I've been delighted with his skill and terrific staff.
I received HALO on my face and neck about a week ago with Kelsey. She and the entire staff were warm and professional. I’m looking forward to the final results and enjoying a refreshed look.
I have been a client / patient here for a few years. First for non-invasive procedures, then for a lower face lift, neck lift & lip lift.. I researched several surgeons, several times until I finally decided on Dr Petroff. He helped me assess what I wanted & guided me on what to expect. On the day of my surgery, Dr Petroff & his surgical staff ensured I was comfortable & helped calm my pre-op anxiety. I'm 6 months postop & very happy with the results.

Procedure Technique
The nonsurgical PiXel8-RF microneedling procedure method is quite easy. The handheld device, which emits bi-polar radiofrequency energy, works by delivering brief bursts of RF energy and heat deep within the layers of the skin through microneedles. This process stimulates the production of collagen and regenerates elastin while offering hemostatic and tissue coagulation effects. The size of the microneedles and energy transmitted through them can be customized to meet the needs of each patient.
Rejuvenate Your Face
If you're looking to reduce the look of aging or sun-damaged skin and reduce laxity, acne scars, or wrinkles, PiXel8-RF microneedling is a great treatment with proven outcomes. The combination of bi-polar radiofrequency energy and microneedling has created this outstanding skin repair procedure, which has increased in popularity and continues to be a top-rated, minimally invasive treatment for our Lake Oswego, OR patients. We invite you to contact Premier Laser + Skin to learn more.
