What Is Radiofrequency Microneedling?
Your skin tells your story, and sometimes, it could use a little extra support. RF microneedling is a noninvasive treatment that combines microneedles with radiofrequency technology to refresh and tighten your skin. This technique can improve the look of fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and loose or thinning skin. At Wave of Wellness in Davenport, IA, we use the EXION® system for this advanced treatment. This includes EXION® FACE and the EMFACE® applicators, which allow us to treat delicate areas like the eyes, lips, and chin with precision and care. These add-ons enhance the treatment's effectiveness while remaining gentle for sensitive areas. We invite you to schedule a consultation at our Davenport clinic to see how radiofrequency microneedling could support your skin care goals.
How Does RF Microneedling Work?
Microneedling with RF works by creating small channels in the skin while delivering controlled heat using radiofrequency energy. The tiny needles reach below the surface and signal the skin to make more collagen and elastin. At the same time, the added heat from radiofrequency technology helps tighten and firm the skin even more deeply than microneedling alone. Our clinic uses the EXION RF microneedling device, which features EXION FACE for full facial rejuvenation and special applicators for the eye, lip, and chin areas. These precision tools are designed for comfort, targeting fragile or detailed zones without causing damage or discomfort. The EMFACE applicators support muscle tone and lift facial structures noninvasively, complementing the effects of microneedling.
- The eye applicator helps lift the brow area and soften Crow's feet while smoothing under-eye skin.
- The lip applicator gently tightens the area around the mouth to soften vertical lines and improve definition.
- The chin applicator sculpts the lower face by stimulating collagen and firming the tissue beneath the jawline.
EXION uses monopolar RF energy guided by artificial intelligence to reach up to 8mm deep without having to insert the microneedles fully. This allows for a deeper and more effective result while keeping sessions more comfortable. You can expect to feel a warming sensation as the device works, but most treatments are well-tolerated with minimal downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is RF microneedling painful?
Most patients describe the sensation as a light pressure with a warm feeling as the device moves across the skin. The system we use is designed for comfort, and our staff at Wave of Wellness ensures the treatment is as gentle as possible. We can also apply a topical numbing cream before the procedure to minimize any potential discomfort.
How should I prepare for my RF microneedling appointment?
To prepare for your treatment, we advise avoiding direct sun exposure and certain products like retinoids for about a week beforehand. It's also important to arrive at your appointment with clean skin, free of makeup or lotions. Our team in Davenport, IA, will give you a complete list of pre-treatment instructions during your consultation.
Is RF microneedling safe for all skin types?
RF microneedling is considered safe and effective for most skin types and tones, including darker skin. Because the radiofrequency energy targets the deeper layers, there is a lower risk of pigmentation issues compared to other treatments. Our team will assess your skin during your consultation to confirm it is the right choice for you.
