Hello cinbloxer,It should not make any difference at all whether you have the RF Microneedling before or after weight loss. The effects on your skin will be the same in any case. You might consider before and after weight loss. We recommend three treatments for the best result, six weeks apart. In fact in some ways if your facial skin is more plump before weight loss the micro needling may work a little better.
Microneedling with radio frequency is a good non-surgical method for tightening skin with minimal downtime. Results are usually seen after three months. Tightening occurs as your tissue remodels after it is selectively damaged by the Microneedling with RF. The amount of tightening you will get is relative to the amount of elasticity you have where the treatment is to be performed. As you lose weight, the amount of skin laxity you have may increase, and this may improve slightly once your weight is stabilized. Having a Microneedling procedure as you are losing weight will centainly not hurt you, But you might be disappointed that the result you see are not quite as robust as you expect. The procedure can however be repeated to improve the outcome. It is important that your expectations for Microneedling with RF are in line with what the procedures can provide to you. Large amount and of skin laxity are not going to be corrected with this type of procedure. Typically, relative to surgery, Microneedling with RF should give you about 20 to 25 percent of the tightening that you could expect from the surgical thigh lift. For people with minimal laxity, this can be a great solution. The best first step towards successful rejuvenation of your inner thighs are to have an in person evaluation by a board certified plastic surgeon. Hope This helps.

All good, in fact you can even have laser with doxycycline. This is because the action spectrum for photo reactions lie in the long wave UVA band. Laser are past this action spectrum. There is no interaction with doxycycline / antibiotics. Dr Davin S. Lim, Brisbane. Australia.
If the skin is already tanned it is okay to do microneedling. After microneedling we suggest that you stay out of the sun as the skin that was treated with the needles may hyperpigment. Tanned skin is damaged skin. Please use sun protection.
