What Is 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 and Skin, we frequently add this new process to our patient's skin treatments to produce firmer skin, a much smoother texture, and a glowing complexion.
What Are the Benefits of RF Microneedling?
This innovative treatment at Premier Laser and Skin is ideal for patients seeking a comprehensive solution to improve skin texture, tone, and firmness. RF microneedling combines the collagen-boosting effects of traditional microneedling with the added benefits of radiofrequency energy to present the following benefits:
- Tightens and firms sagging skin by stimulating deep layers with radiofrequency energy
- Reduces fine lines and wrinkles for a smoother, more youthful appearance
- Improves the appearance of acne scars and other types of scars
- Enhances skin texture and minimizes enlarged pores
- Treats hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone
- Boosts collagen and elastin production for long-term skin health
- Provides noticeable results with minimal downtime
- Customizable to target specific skin concerns for different areas of the face and body
Who Is a Candidate for RF Microneedling?
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
How Does RF Microneedling Work?
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.

How Long Do RF Microneedling Results Last?
Patients undergoing RF microneedling treatments at Premier Laser and Skin 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.
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 patients. We invite you to contact Premier Laser and Skin to learn more from Dr. Petroff and his skilled team.

Petroff Center Plastic Surgery and Medi-Spa Reviews
Great experience… he takes time to listen
Dr. Petroff, his nurses and staff were nothing short of extraordinary. I was so impressed at every step of this process with Dr. Petroff’s office. They communicated well, followed up, very organized and the nurses made me feel so comfortable and safe during my procedure. I would highly highly recommend Dr. Petroff.
I had a facelift with Dr Petroff in 2008 and I'm still very happy with the results. I recently had to call with a question about the details of the facelift and I was emailed the information I needed by Bree, very quickly and efficiently. Thanks Bree and the Petroff Center staff. Excellent services as before! Melissa Hernandez
Dr. Deniz Gerecci did my septorhinoplasty at the Petroff Center and I would choose her again in a heartbeat. I came in nervous, with a deviated septum and a long list of questions, and she took every bit of it seriously.My nose still looks like mine, just refined and straightened, which is exactly what I asked for. I am about a month out with a little swelling left and I already could not be happier.She was honest from the start about what my anatomy would and wouldn't allow instead of telling me yes to everything. She also took my ten-year-old septum and nostril piercings seriously, which I truly was not expecting. She helped me get my nostril piercing back in once the skin allowed, and she is going to re-pierce my septum at week six. That was never something I assumed I would get help with, and it has made me feel extremely cared for.Jasmine took my sutures out and was so gentle about it, and the front desk staff were so kind and responsive every single time I reached out. The care around the surgery matched the surgery itself.If you are looking for a rhinoplasty or septoplasty surgeon in the Portland area, she is who I would send my own friends to. Thank you for taking such good care of me, Dr. Gerecci!
