@aesthetic.lab1: There is a claim going around online that RF needling melts your facial fat pads. And if you have seen it, you probably want to know if there is any truth to it. 💥RF needling works by delivering radiofrequency energy through tiny needles into the dermal layer of the skin. That energy creates controlled heat, and that heat is what drives collagen remodelling. The concern people are raising is whether that heat, if delivered too deeply or at too high an energy setting, could unintentionally affect the fat layer sitting beneath the skin. 💥And here is the honest answer. In the wrong hands, with the wrong device, at the wrong settings, there is a basis for that concern. But in a properly trained somatologist's hands, using a device with precise depth control and calibrated energy settings, RF needling is doing exactly what it is supposed to do and nothing more. 💥Before your next RF needling session, ask three questions. What device is being used and does it have precise depth control? What settings are being used for your specific skin concern? And how much experience does your practitioner have with this treatment on the face specifically? If those questions get confident, clear answers, you are in the right room. If they do not, that tells you everything. 🔖 Save this before your next treatment consultation.
