Most patients find RF microneedling to be a very tolerable treatment. The Refresh Dermatology staff will apply a topical numbing cream to help minimize any discomfort in the treatment area. For those who are more averse to discomfort, we provide a nerve block or even nitrous oxide (laughing gas).

Make Sagging Skin a Thing of the Past

Start Reaching Your Goals
Dr. Chilukuri and the Refresh Dermatology team are ready to guide you on your cosmetic journey.
1
Meet the Team
Patients will start by meeting with the Refresh Dermatology team for an initial consultation. Here, we can get a better sense of the specific challenges you’re dealing with and your goals for treatment. Dr. Chilukuri and the team can then put together a treatment plan personalized to your needs.

Treatments
Because each patient who visits Refresh Dermatology is unique, no two treatment plans will be the same. Patients may receive one or multiple different RF microneedling modalities. However, each treatment we offer uses precise microneedling techniques to create small micro-wounds in the skin before using radiofrequency energy to heat the deepest layers of the dermis.

Results
The combination of micro-injuries and radiofrequency heat will help the skin rebuild its collagen and lead to tighter, firmer skin over time. With proper aftercare, patients can expect to see sustained improvements in the weeks and months following their treatment.
