Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about RF Microneedling - Hyperhidrosis.

RF microneedling delivers controlled radiofrequency energy through micro-needles to heat and damage hyperactive sweat glands. Over weeks, treated glands shrink or are destroyed, reducing sweat production. The result is long-lasting decrease in localized sweating with gradual improvement after each session.

Most patients report mild discomfort during treatment; topical numbing is applied to minimize pain. Post-procedure tenderness or tingling typically resolves within a few days. Pain levels are generally low, and most resume normal activities soon after.

Treatment plans vary; many clients need two to four sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. Severity, treated area, and individual response affect the total. A consultation determines a personalized schedule to achieve optimal, long-lasting sweat reduction.

Aftercare includes gentle cleansing, avoiding heavy exercise, heat exposure, and harsh products for several days. Expect mild redness and swelling that fades within days. Most return to work immediately; complete results develop over weeks as glands diminish.

Common side effects are temporary redness, swelling, bruising, or mild sensitivity. Rare risks include infection or scarring if aftercare is neglected. Proper technique and pre/post instructions minimize complications; discuss medical history to assess risk before treatment.

Ideal candidates have localized primary hyperhidrosis, are in good overall health, and seek a minimally invasive option. Not suitable for active skin infections, certain autoimmune conditions, or pregnancy. A consultation evaluates suitability based on medical history and treatment goals.
