Hello Polite303904,

Thank you for posing this question, as I'm sure there are others who are also wondering about this. SylfirmX and other radiofrequency-microneedling treatments can be wonderful for all skin types, but only if performed by a properly trained and educated professional. Whether the person is prone to keloids, acne, discoloration, or anything else, the provider must know the appropriate settings to use in order to achieve the desired result without causing any harm or negative side effects. Our practice uses several devices, and providers are trained extensively by the company as well as by our medical director. Our medical aesthetician has been working in this industry for over 10 years. Our advice is do your research, and ask lots of questions! Best of luck in your search! If you would like to learn more or see how we would approach your concerns, please feel free to contact our office and schedule a consultation. We would love to meet you! All the best, Genie Alexander, RN BSN for Dr. Anna Petropoulos, MD FRCS Center for Classic Beauty 80 Lindall St. Danvers MA 396 Commonwealth Ave. Suite A1 Boston, MA 978-739-9500
