Can Secret RF on the abdomen induce facial erythema?

jane___doeDec 21, 2022
I hope someone can clear this up for me, so to speak. I used to have issues with facial erythema, but they've largely resolved. Ever since having Secret RF done on my abdomen The same specific patches (same shape, borders, etc. this is also a new development,) on each cheek will turn red with the most minimal triggers. No procedure was done on my face and the treated skin healed without incident. Am I having some odd inflammatory response? Thank you in advance.

Secret is best used when the whole area is treated. If only a small area is treated, then the response will be small and not as lasting.

Treatment like Renuvion where the heat is actually placed under the skin with a wand instead of through the skin with tiny needles would give better results. However, the tummy tuck will be the best way to have a flat and tight abdomen.

Surgery will give your best results because the excess skin can be removed. If you go with micro-needling with radiofrequency, I use Secret, you will need several treatments.
