Answer: Radio frequency after tummy tuck I have not heard that RF treatments accelerate healing. I do know that it may provide additional tightening and when combined with microneedling may help with the texture of the skin. I do not know the benefit toward recovery but certainly speak with your plastic surgeon about what specifically he or she is trying to accomplish with it.
