Join us for a fun educational event to learn about these non-evasive treatments!
Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling is a cosmetic procedure to revitalize your appearance – firming, tightening, smoothing and sculpting your face and skin.
The process involves using a small hand held device that has tiny needles. These needles are inserted into the tissue at a specific depth (with minimal discomfort) to deliver radiofrequency energy to your tissue. This creates controlled microtrauma that stimulates your skin to rejuvenate.
Dr. Valerie H. Chen, an ophthalmic plastic surgeon, is pleased to offer this non-invasive treatment to her patients for common trouble areas on the face such as crows feet, smile lines, and other fine lines due to aging.
Scarlet and Agnes are two methods of RF microneedling technology that address different aesthetic issues of the face: skin appearance and fat.
Dr. Chen applies a numbing gel to the treatment area making this treatment virtually painless. The length of the treatment depends treatment area and the desired results. Most Scarlet SRF and Agnes RF treatments take between 30 and 60 minutes.
Scarlet SRF and Agnes RF are safe and effective treatments with minimal side effects. Some people may experience mild redness or swelling in the treatment area, but these side effects typically resolve within a few hours. There is no downtime associated with Scarlet RF, and you can return to your normal activities immediately after the treatment.
The number of Scarlet RF and/or Agnes RF treatments you will need will depend on your individual goals and the condition of your skin. During your consultation with Dr. Chen, she will discuss your areas of concern and recommend a personalized treatment plan tailored to your individual needs. Most people see significant improvements in the appearance of their skin after just one treatment, but multiple treatments may be necessary for optimal results. Treatments are normally scheduled approximately 6 weeks.
Scarlet SRF and Agnes RF are non-invasive treatments that is suitable for most people. However, it is important to have a consultation with Dr. Chen to determine if Scarlet RF is the right treatment for you. She will consider your individual goals, skin type, and overall health to determine if Scarlet RF is a safe and effective treatment option.
If you are interested in improving the appearance of sagging or loose skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, or rejuvenating the overall appearance of your skin, Scarlet RF and/or Agnes RF may be good treatment options for you.
