Acne may be temporary — but the scars it leaves behind can last for years. If you struggle with uneven texture, pitted scars, or enlarged pores, RF microneedling at Concierge Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery offers an advanced, non-surgical solution designed specifically to rebuild smoother, healthier skin.
Unlike surface-level treatments, RF microneedling works deep within the skin where acne scars form, stimulating powerful collagen remodeling for long-term improvement.
Why Acne Scars Require Advanced Treatment
Acne scars develop when inflammation damages collagen during the healing process. When the skin cannot fully repair itself, depressed scars — such as rolling or boxcar scars — remain. Because these scars are structural, effective treatment must address the deeper dermal layers rather than just exfoliating the surface.
RF microneedling is uniquely designed to do exactly that.
How RF Microneedling Improves Acne Scars
RF microneedling combines two proven technologies:
-
Microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries that trigger your body’s natural healing response.
-
Radiofrequency (RF) energy is delivered through the needles into deeper layers of skin, gently heating tissue to stimulate collagen contraction and regeneration.
This dual-action approach breaks down damaged scar tissue while promoting new collagen and elastin production. Over time, depressed scars become smoother, skin texture improves, and pores appear smaller.
Because the energy is delivered beneath the surface, the outer layer of skin remains largely intact — which means less downtime compared to more aggressive resurfacing procedures.
What Types of Acne Scars Respond Best?
RF microneedling is especially effective for:
-
Rolling scars
-
Boxcar scars
-
Enlarged pores
-
Mild to moderate textural irregularities
While very deep ice pick scars may require combination therapy, many patients see significant overall improvement in skin smoothness with a customized series of RF microneedling treatments.
What to Expect at Concierge Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery
Your treatment begins with a personalized consultation to evaluate your skin and create a customized plan. On the day of your procedure, a topical numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort.
The RF microneedling device is then passed over the treatment area, delivering precise needle depth and controlled radiofrequency energy. Most sessions take about 45–60 minutes.
After treatment, you can expect mild redness and slight swelling for one to three days — similar to a mild sunburn. As collagen rebuilds over the following weeks, skin gradually becomes smoother and firmer. A series of three to four treatments spaced about four weeks apart is typically recommended for optimal results.
