What this picture does — and does not — explain

This is conventional microneedling, without RF heat. Adding serums or medicines is a separate intervention whose safety cannot be assumed.

How to understand it

A microneedling device makes small punctures in the skin. Ordinary microneedling does not add RF energy. Combining a device with a serum or medicine is a separate question and is not automatically authorised.

What to discuss

Scar or texture concerns require assessment. Home devices and clinical devices are not interchangeable.

How it is delivered

Needles; no RF in this category.

Risks & questions

Bleeding, redness, infection and pigment changes are among concerns to discuss. Ask about sterile equipment and the device’s authorised use.

Planning recovery

Agree on skin care, sun protection and when to restart products or makeup.
