Acne scars and large pores are two of the most common skin concerns that can affect women well into adulthood. While makeup and skincare routines may help improve their appearance temporarily, these solutions often fall short of delivering long-lasting results. That’s where RF microneedling comes in. This groundbreaking treatment combines two powerful skin-renewing technologies for dramatic improvements in texture, tone, and overall radiance.
At Brandilyn’s Aesthetic Boutique, we specialize in treatments that provide natural-looking results. With a background in dermatology and decades of experience in medical aesthetics, our team delivers the highest standard of care. If you’re looking for the best treatment for acne scars and a solution for persistent pore concerns, RF microneedling may be the answer.
What Is RF Microneedling?
RF microneedling is an advanced cosmetic treatment that blends two highly effective methods of skin rejuvenation: microneedling and radiofrequency energy. While each of these technologies is powerful on its own, together they create a synergy that transforms the way your skin repairs and renews itself.
- Microneedling: This technique uses ultra-fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin. These tiny punctures are not damaging. Instead, they’re therapeutic. They stimulate the body’s natural healing process, encouraging new collagen and elastin production. Over time, this helps the skin appear smoother, firmer, and more even.
- Radiofrequency (RF) energy: As the microneedles penetrate the skin, they simultaneously deliver gentle RF heat into the deeper dermal layers. This controlled warmth stimulates even greater collagen remodeling, tightens tissue, and enhances skin elasticity.
By addressing both the surface and deeper structural layers of the skin, RF microneedling achieves results that standard microneedling or traditional RF treatments alone cannot. The treatment is designed to resurface, renew, and rebuild. Patients can achieve significant improvements in acne scars, pore size, fine lines, and overall texture.
Why RF Microneedling is the Best Treatment for Acne Scars
Acne scars can leave lasting indentations or unevenness on the skin, often long after breakouts have resolved. Unlike creams or exfoliants that only treat the surface, RF microneedling targets scars at their root.
- Breaks down scar tissue: Microneedling creates microchannels that disrupt old scar tissue, allowing fresh, healthy skin to form.
- Promotes collagen remodeling: RF energy stimulates deeper layers to rebuild and fill in depressed scars.
- Improves skin smoothness: Over a series of treatments, acne scars fade significantly, leaving behind smoother, more even skin.
For patients who feel like they’ve tried everything without success, RF microneedling is often the breakthrough solution they’ve been waiting for.
Large Pores: Why They Form and How RF Helps
Large pores are another frustrating issue, often caused by genetics, excess oil production, or loss of elasticity with age. Topical skincare products may temporarily minimize pores, but they don’t address the underlying causes.
RF microneedling is uniquely effective because:
- It tightens surrounding skin: Heat energy contracts tissues, making pores appear smaller.
- It regulates oil production: By stimulating cellular renewal, skin balances oil levels more effectively.
- It builds stronger support structures: Collagen and elastin development keep pores tighter over time.
Patients often notice a significant reduction in pore size along with an overall refinement of their complexion.
What Do We Use for RF Microneedling?
At Brandilyn’s Aesthetic Boutique, we perform RF microneedling treatments with the Cartessa VirtueRF device, the first RF microneedling platform designed for ultimate precision, comfort, and versatility. VirtueRF combines the collagen-stimulating benefits of microneedling with the skin-tightening power of radiofrequency energy, making it one of the most advanced devices of its kind.
Microneedling with Gold-Coated Needles
The VirtueRF device uses 36 ultra-fine, gold-coated microneedles to create precise microchannels in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing response, kickstarting fresh collagen and elastin production.
Radiofrequency (RF) Energy Delivery
As the microneedles penetrate, the system delivers controlled RF energy into deeper skin layers. This heat contracts and tightens tissues while further stimulating collagen remodeling.
Advanced Customization
VirtueRF features three specialized handpieces—SMART RF, DEEP RF, and EXACT RF—allowing us to treat both delicate facial areas and larger body zones with unmatched precision.
LED Integration
Built-in red and blue LED lights provide additional benefits, such as calming inflammation, reducing bacteria that contribute to acne, and accelerating skin recovery.
This technology goes far beyond standard microneedling. By combining RF energy with precision microneedling, VirtueRF can effectively improve acne scars, minimize large pores, soften fine lines and wrinkles, and even address skin laxity and cellulite.
Who Is a Candidate for RF Microneedling?
RF microneedling with VirtueRF is an excellent option for women who want smoother, firmer skin without the downtime of more aggressive treatments. Ideal candidates typically include:
- Those with acne scars: Whether shallow or deep, RF microneedling can significantly soften their appearance.
- Patients bothered by large pores: Especially if pore-minimizing skincare has not delivered long-lasting results.
- Patients noticing early signs of aging: Fine lines, wrinkles, and mild laxity respond beautifully to collagen stimulation.
- Individuals with uneven texture or tone: Including rough patches, redness, or areas of dullness.
- Those seeking natural-looking results: The treatment enhances your own collagen production, so results look refreshed, not overdone.
Since VirtueRF is safe for nearly all skin types and tones, most patients between their late 20s and 60s are excellent candidates. During your consultation, we’ll review your goals, evaluate your skin, and customize a plan to ensure you achieve your best outcome.
