Do all RF microneedling devices leave track marks?

Question

There has been extensive commentary from people who get RF Microneedling about track marks and grid makes that last weeks after treatment. My question is, is this a risk for all types of Microneedling RF devices or do some not carry this risk?

Michael I. Echavez, MD · Answer

The RF micro needling device that I use is Morpheus8 and I have not had any of my patients experience grid marks after the treatments.

Brandon Richland, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question.Lasting grid marks are a risk for all RF Microneedling devices for many reasons; skin color, skin reactivity, not following post-care recommendations, etc. I prefer to prescribe hydroquinone to help reduce this risk but there are several other steps that can be taken in order to lessen the possibility of unwanted side effects. I would recommend discussing your concerns with an experienced practitioner prior to booking a procedure. Best of luck.
