Does the strength microneedling RF matter if someone is not able to tolerate the pain at a certain high power?

Asked By:contraflame86 in Singapore, Singapore

If someone is not able to tolerate the pain of RF microneedling at a certain high power, does performing 2 passes of same RF power at 2x the needle withdrawal speed equivalent to 1 pass of the same power at normal withdrawal speed? Similarly, does performing 2 passes of half RF power equivalent to 1 pass of the original RF power? Is the effectiveness the same in both situations? Thanks!
