RF Microneedling for facial hyperhidrosis?

August 17, 2020
Asked By:Independent315881 in California, CA

I'm interested in getting this done for the reduction of facial sweating, but the doctor I spoke to was only familiar with using RF microneedling for the reduction of fine lines/pores/etcetera. Is there a difference in the way RFM is performed for the treatment of overall skin complexion vs. the destruction of sweat glands? For example, I can imagine that the settings (depth, intensity) might not be the same. Or is RFM just always RFM, regardless of the specific treatment goals. Thanks!
