Can I get RF microneedling without making my rosacea worse?

Question

I have Rosacea alongside acne scars and sun damage. Looking to treat the scars and sun damage. Is it possible to do without making my Rosacea skin worse?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

A combination approach will give the most improvement. A combination of Cosmelan, lasers, microneedling/prp, subcision, salt facials. It may take a series of treatments and may need some treatments to maintain. For rosacea, I like a combination approach, using lasers (ProYellow, Pulsed Dye/Vbeam, Excel V(, BBL)), peels and botox to the cheeks. This makes dramatic changes in color and symptoms. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an acne scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question. I would not recommend regular microneedling in patients with Rosacea. However, our Radiofrequency Microneedling treatment will improve your sun damage and scarring while also potentially improving your rosacea. We have a protocol for Rosacea treatment that will help prevent flare ups. I would recommend an in-person consultation and examination with an experienced physician where a customized treatment plan can be created for you. Hope this helps!

Morpheus8 is by far the very best of all the radiofrequency treatments and does so much more than any other one.  It can coagulate telangiectasia of rosacea as well as improve scars and sun damage.

Possible as RF is deep, however if there is a flare up simple vascular lasers can help get your rosacea under control. Dr Davin Lim.
