If the rf microneedle machines are color blind then why do docs prefer insulated over non insulated? Color blind means that it will not cause any pigmentation. Thanks

Answer: RF microneedle I use a non-insulated machine and love the results. The insulated refers to the needle tips. A non-insulated generates heat along the entire needle. An insulated machine has the base of the needle covered, with only the tip exposed. This allows all the energy to be sent to the tip only. The goal is to create micro-channels and to stimulate the dermal layer to make collagen. There are concerns of skin burns with a non-insulated machine, but this probably results from too much energy as opposed to the insulation.Good luck to you,Dr. Powell
