Sublative is also known as eMatrix. It uses fractionated radiofrequency to improve the skin. Typically, treatments can be performed at 3-6 week intervals.
eMatrix is a fantastic laser for acne scars and wrinkles. I generally have patients return once a month for treatment and avoid sun during this process. There is no need to wait 3 months in between treatments. For the bet cosmetic results please consult a board certified dermatologist with experience with eMatrix.

You have got it! Stop any retinol topically before the eMatrix treatment to reduce irritation. Then recommence 4-6 days after. Start slow, then increase. All the best. Video in the reference reviews eMatrix and what it is best used for. Dr Davin LimBrisbane, Australia.
Retinoids can help stimulate collagen and helps exfoliate the skin. Although retinoids are useful adjuncts, they may cause hypersensitivity of the skin during RF treatments. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
