In this video, our expert Ranen is going to explore the world of radiofrequency needling, discussing specifically ways to ensure patients the best experience possible.

Radiofrequency needling treatments like Fractora or Morpheus8 are renowned for their effectiveness in rejuvenating the skin, However, we understand that some patients may have concerns about discomfort during these procedures. That’s why at Aesthetic Skin Chicago we’ve curated a range of methods to enhance your comfort and overall satisfaction.

One of the most effective ways to minimize discomfort is by applying a topical numbing cream before the procedure. This cream helps desensitize the treatment area, ensuring a more comfortable experience during the radiofrequency needling session. We typically recommend leaving the numbing cream on for about 15 to 30 minutes to ensure optimal effectiveness.

In addition to topical numbing, we also offer nitrous oxide, commonly known as laughing gas, to further enhance your comfort. This  helps redirect your focus away from the treatment itself, promoting a relaxed and calm state during the procedure. It can can significantly reduce any anxiety or discomfort you may feel, making your session more enjoyable.

Furthermore, we understand the importance of managing any potential post-treatment discomfort. That’s why we may recommend taking a dose of Tylenol before your radiofrequency needling appointment. This preemptive measure helps preemptively alleviate any minor discomfort that may occur after the treatment, ensuring a smoother recovery process.
