Esthetician instead of nurse for RF microneedling RF?

Question

I had some scars from a recent fall and am trying to do non invasive modalities. I had to cancel a few appointments beyond my control for IPL and RF microneedling. They have now scheduled me with an esthetician instead of the nurse I was previously scheduled with. Should I do that?

Iman Bar, MD · Answer

In order to prescribe the treatment of Microneedling RF patients must assessed properly by a Licensed Provider vs just Microneedling can be done by an esthetician. The major factors are the depths and heat that is emitted by the RF microneedling. Without the proper care a patient can get burned or have their scarred.
