How is PiXel8-RF different from traditional microneedling?
Traditional microneedling only creates controlled micro-injuries to stimulate healing. PiXel8-RF takes it a step further by delivering radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis, enhancing collagen remodeling, tightening skin, and improving texture more effectively and quickly.
Can PiXel8-RF be used on the neck or body?
Absolutely. While it’s a favorite for facial rejuvenation, PiXel8-RF is also effective for tightening skin on the neck, décolletage, arms, abdomen, or above the knees—anywhere you’re experiencing laxity or texture concerns.
Does PiXel8-RF help with under-eye wrinkles or crepey skin?
Yes—its precision makes it safe to use under and around the eyes to target fine lines, crepey texture, and early skin laxity in delicate areas that are often difficult to treat with lasers.
How soon after the treatment can I resume using active skincare products?
Most patients can reintroduce retinoids, exfoliants, or vitamin C serums after about 5–7 days once the skin barrier is fully restored. We’ll give you a custom skincare plan to support healing and maximize your results.
Can PiXel8-RF help with stretch marks?
Yes. The combination of microneedling and RF energy makes PiXel8-RF a powerful option for reducing the appearance of stretch marks, especially when combined with a tailored treatment series and proper post-care.
How does PiXel8-RF compare to laser resurfacing?
Laser resurfacing removes outer skin layers, while PiXel8-RF heats the deeper dermis without disrupting the surface. This makes it better for patients who want rejuvenation with minimal downtime and a lower risk of pigmentation in darker skin types.
