RF microneedling treatment has gained popularity due to its ability to improve skin texture by reducing acne scars, stretch marks, and pore size. It’s a good alternative cosmetic procedure to invasive procedures that produce the same effect. But despite this positive feedback from patients, some are bothered by the track marks that RF microneedling seems to leave behind.
Why RF microneedling grid marks happen
Grid marks are usually not a sign that the treatment has failed. They are more often a sign that the skin has reacted strongly at the points where needles delivered energy, or where the hand piece was pressed and stamped.
Here’s what can cause them:
- Deeper Needle Penetration: Track marks are more common with deeper microneedling treatments (like RF microneedling), where needles go beyond the superficial skin layers.
- Overuse Of A Device: Using too much pressure or microneedling too frequently can cause noticeable marks.
- Skin Sensitivity: People with sensitive or thin skin may experience more pronounced marks post-treatment.
- Improper Aftercare: Not following proper aftercare steps can prolong healing and make track marks more visible.
