What is the most effective RF treatment for tightening facial skin following prolonged filler use, particularly the under-eye and cheek areas. I've had one session of microneedling with PRP, which worked great, but the under-eye area wasn't addressed. Any recommendations for effective treatments? Also is there risk of permanent scarring if the procedure is performed by an inexperienced professional. In my area, there are many new clinics with inexperienced staff.

Answer: Ablative Laser vs RF Skin tightening on the face is best addressed non-surgically by either ablative lasers for loose skin around the eyes or mouth, or RF microneedling (around the mouth). Lateral skin (jowls) can also be helped with muscle stimulation (TriLift/EmFace). Always be sure that the medical director of your spa is abl board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist to ensure those overseeing your procedure avoid untoward complications.

Answer: Effective Rf Treatment Thanks for your question. We have seen great results with the Morpheus8 which is RF with Microneedling. The microneedling penetrates high depths then your regular microneedling which is used more for skin tone and texture. The Morpheus8 also has a different tip that works great for the undereye area. I would always recommend someone who is highly trained and experienced in using the machine, improper use of any device can cause scarring or burns. Providers at our office do almost upwards of 30 Morpheus treatment per week so they are very comfortable and experienced using the machine.
