When home skin treatments fail but you aren't ready for surgery just yet, try nonsurgical and minimally invasive procedures for skin rejuvenation like Genius RF Microneedling. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Glenn Lyle is pleased to offer Genius RF Microneedling (also known as collagen induction therapy) at our office in Raleigh, NC. We also serve Apex, Cary, Holly Springs, Knightdale, Wake Forest, Durham and Chapel hill.
Genius RF Microneedling uses multiple fine-gauge needles to safely and effectively create micro-injuries in the needed areas of the skin. The micro-injuries trigger the body's natural production of collagen and elastin, two nutrients that improve the overall health and appearance of the skin. Schedule a consultation at Lyle Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Center to discover more about the benefits of Genius RF Microneedling and ways to customize the treatment for your skin concerns and goals.
What is RF Microneedling?
Our team uses a special approach that produces gorgeous outcomes for our patients using a treatment known as radiofrequency (RF) microneedling with innovative Lutronic Genius® technology. RF remedies have existed for many years and are popular in the aesthetics industry for their skin tightening effects. This particular type of treatment uses heat to encourage the creation of collagen in the deeper layers of the skin to reveal a tighter, smoother surface. This treatment can be used with microneedling to maximize the outcomes. We frequently incorporate this new process into our Raleigh, NC patients' skin care treatments to generate firmer skin, a smoother feel, and a glowing complexion. With Lutronic Genius, treatments can be carefully curated for multiple skin types and various areas of the body. Ask us about RF microneedling with Lutronic Genius during your initial consultation at our facility.
Ideal Candidates
You may benefit from Genius RF Microneedling if you have mild to moderate skin issues, like a decrease in firmness or an uneven texture. Genius RF Microneedling treatments can also improve the appearance of scars, pores, and stretch marks. You'll have to wait a while before seeing the benefits from your Genius RF Microneedling treatment since collagen and elastin need a month or longer to affect the skin, but you will see natural-looking results and gain healthier, stronger skin.
Procedure Technique
Genius RF Microneedling is done in one of our office procedure rooms in about 30 – 60 minutes with numbing cream or local anesthesia if desired, but patients typically experience moderate to mild discomfort. The skin being treated will be cleansed before the microneedling machine is passed evenly over. After the Genius RF Microneedling is complete, a topical treatment like platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or a vitamin-infused serum or exosomes can be applied for deeper penetration of the nutrients into the skin. A moisturizer will be massaged along with sun protection since your skin will be sensitive after the treatment.
FAQs
1. How many treatments of Genius RF are necessary?
Most patients will be best served with 3 sessions performed about 6 weeks apart to get the ideal outcome. Collagen continues to build after each treatment but generally by 6 months a noticeable change is apparent. Wrinkle reduction, smoother appearing skin and a clearer complexion will occur.
2. Is the Genius RF treatment painful?
Most patients experience mild to moderate discomfort. Topical numbing creams are applied and often a mild analgesic administered. There is a pressure and heating sensation as the tiny needles penetrate the top layers of the skin.
3. How long is Genuis RF the treatment?
This depends on the areas treated but most sessions last from 20 minutes to an hour.
4. What is the recovery of Genius RF microneedling?
The skin will appear red or pink and may be slightly swollen for several days. Most patients are back to normal in 48 hours, but it may take up to a week. Sun avoidance is recommended.
5. Can other treatments be added to Genius RF microneedling?
Yes, a popular combination is called Total Skin Solution™ and pairs Genius RF microneedling with LaseMD Ultra laser which gently resurfaces skin tone and texture. It is almost like "polishing" the skin after the microneedling.

What to Expect
You may develop light swelling and redness for about a day, but this should resolve on its own. It may take about 1 – 2 months as the collagen and elastin levels increase before you see visible improvements in the health and appearance of your treated skin. You should plan to get about 4 – 6 maintenance treatments every 4 – 6 weeks for the best results and long-term skin health.
