Does RF melt hyaluronic acid fillers?

October 30, 2018
Asked By:SarahTy in Asheville, NC

Can I get RF to encourage collagen production if I had been injected hyaluronic acid fillers 6 months ago? The reason I am asking is because I heard that RF can deplete the HA fillers do it will can of defeat the purpose? I love my HA fillers but it just works for volume and doesn't really encourage my own skin to produce its own collagen while RF does.
