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.
Lyle Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics Center Reviews
I saw Kat for a chemical peel and had an amazing experience. She was very consultative and explained the treatment and what to expect in great detail. I got a VI peel for my acne and I think it definitely helped! I experienced a lot of peeling as pictured but by like day 7-9 I was good to go!
WOW! I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Lyle and his team! I had a breast augmentation done last month and the entire experience has been nothing short of wonderful! I was nervous beginning this journey, but Dr. Lyle and everyone at his practice made me feel very comfortable and were so supportive from start to finish. I honestly wish I could do it all over again! Dr. Lyle is very calming, listens to his patients, and truly is an artist at what he does! I have had several people ask me who my surgeon was and of course I am proud and excited to tell them Dr. Lyle and his wonderful team at Lyle Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics Center! I could not be happier with the results! My only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner!! I am an RN and had pretty high standards beginning this process but Dr. Lyle and his team far exceeded them! The office is absolutely beautiful as well, even my husband commented on how relaxed he felt sitting in the waiting room. They have an awesome Instagram page too with really good information and education about different types of procedures, aesthetic treatments, surgeries, etc. The whole experience has me wanting to become an aesthetic nurse! Thank you to Dr. Lyle and his incredible team!!
Team is amazing, surgery perfect, realistic expectations and after care. Had three consultations before hand. Made the right choice with Dr.Lyle! (Tummy tuck)
I had a fantastic experience at Lyle Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics! From start to finish, the staff was welcoming, professional, and made me feel completely at ease. I got lip fillers and the entire process was smooth and comfortable. My aesthetic nurse, Haley took the time to understand my goals and delivered beautiful, natural-looking results. I’m beyond happy with my experience and will definitely be returning for future treatments. Highly recommend!
Dr. Lyle and his staff members are amazing! While visiting his office, I met with an esthetician, financial advisor, nurses, PA's and Dr. Lyle himself. Every experience at this office has been fantastic, everyone is so nice and kind. I had a tummy tuck performed and my stomach looks better than it did in high school! I am so pleased with the outcome...and so is my husband 😊! I would highly recommend Dr. Lyle and will be returning for anything I might need in the future.

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.
