Revitalize Your Skin with RF Microneedling Using the Rohrer Pixel 8 Device
In the world of skin rejuvenation, RF (radiofrequency) microneedling has emerged as a highly sought-after treatment for its ability to combine the benefits of traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy. When performed using the advanced Rohrer device, this treatment takes skin revitalization to a whole new level, delivering smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin. Here, we explore the numerous advantages of RF microneedling, how to prepare for your session, post-treatment care, and what you can expect from the experience.
Why Choose RF Microneedling with the Rohrer Device?
RF microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that leverages the precision of fine needles to create micro-injuries in the skin. When combined with radiofrequency energy, these controlled injuries trigger the skin's natural healing process, stimulating collagen and elastin production. The Rohrer device stands out due to its unique design that ensures deeper penetration, uniform energy distribution, and customizable intensity levels for tailored results. Here are the key benefits:
- Dual Action: Simultaneously promotes collagen production and tightens the skin with RF energy.
- Customizable Treatment: Adjustable depth and energy levels cater to all skin types and different skin concerns.
- Reduced Discomfort: The Rohrer device is designed to maximize comfort during the procedure.
- Minimal Downtime: Achieve impressive results with less recovery time compared to more invasive procedures.
Pre-Procedure Care: How to Prepare for Your RF Microneedling Session
To maximize the results and ensure a smooth treatment, it’s essential to prepare your skin appropriately:
1. Skin Prep! Preparing your skin with Alastin's Procedure Enhancement System is crucial for optimizing cosmetic treatment outcomes. The system's TriHex Technology® supports the skin's natural ability to produce new, healthy elastin and collagen, enhancing treatment results and reducing recovery time.
By strengthening the skin prior to procedures, it minimizes the risk of complications, reduces down time, and promotes a smoother, more youthful appearance post-treatment.

2. Avoid Sun Exposure: For at least a week prior, limit direct sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen.
3. Stop Retinoids: Discontinue the use of retinoids and other exfoliating products at least 5-7 days before your session.
4. Stay Hydrated: Keep your skin well-hydrated and drink plenty of water.
5. Avoid Certain Medications: Refrain from taking blood-thinning medications (e.g., aspirin) unless directed otherwise by your healthcare provider.
6. Communicate with Your Provider: Ensure you share your medical history, skin concerns, and any active skin conditions.
What to Expect During and After the Procedure
During the treatment, a numbing cream is applied to minimize discomfort. The Rohrer device’s precision needles create micro-channels in the skin, and the simultaneous RF energy deeply penetrates to stimulate collagen and elastin. The procedure typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Post-procedure, you may experience mild redness, swelling, or a warm sensation, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects generally subside within 24-48 hours.
Post-Procedure Care: Optimizing Your Results
To achieve optimal results and promote healing, follow these aftercare steps:
1. Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your skin with a high-SPF sunscreen and avoid direct sun exposure for at least a week.
2. Gentle Cleansing: Use a mild, non-abrasive cleanser for the first few days.
3. Moisturize: Keep your skin hydrated with a suitable moisturizer to support the healing process.
4. Avoid Exfoliants: Stay away from exfoliating products and harsh skincare ingredients for about a week.
5. Skip Makeup: Refrain from using makeup for at least 24-48 hours post-treatment.
Benefits of RF Microneedling
- Enhanced Skin Texture: Reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores.
- Scar Reduction: Effective for minimizing acne scars and surgical scars.
- Increased Firmness: Tightens sagging skin, providing a youthful lift.
- Even Skin Tone: Helps reduce hyperpigmentation and sun damage.
- Quick Recovery: Minimal downtime allows you to return to your regular activities within a day or two.
Understanding the Downtime
One of the major selling points of RF microneedling is its minimal downtime. While some redness and slight swelling are common, these side effects typically fade within 24-48 hours. Patients may notice slight flaking or dryness as the skin heals, but this is part of the natural recovery process.

RF microneedling with the Rohrer device is an excellent choice for individuals seeking comprehensive skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime. With its dual-action approach, customizable treatment settings, and proven efficacy, it’s no wonder this procedure has become a favorite for both patients and providers.
