Microneedle Radiofrequency (MRF) treatments can be performed after a lower facelift, but it's essential to consult with a Profound expert. MRF therapy can help enhance skin tightening and rejuvenation, potentially complementing the results of your facelift, but it's crucial to ensure proper healing and avoid any interference with the surgical process.

Hello,
After facelift surgery you can get Profound RF as soon as you recover from early surgery side effects like swelling and bruising (about 1 months after surgery). Profound RF is an excellent device and can add more lifting in lower face and upper neck but it’s so much less effective compared to the lifting effects of surgery. So with Profound  you should not expect to see more results than a good facelift surgery. 
Best regards,
Dr Ali Sajjadian

Hello M,
Sorry to hear that your face results did not meet your expectations.  You may have Profound Rf 8 months after facelift surgery.  I would treat your face and neck with Profound RF and PRP, additionally I would inject your neck with hyperdilute Radiesse at the same time to stimulate collagen production in your neck.  We're not in Miami, but if you ever get out to Los Angeles, I will be happy to help you.  Good luck and be well.
