RF Microneedling & CO₂ Resurfacing

Rebuilding your skin’s foundation, one layer at a time

At Kamangar Dermatology, we reach for radiofrequency (RF) microneedling and CO₂ resurfacing when a patient’s goals go beyond the surface, targeting deeper lines, looser skin, or scarring that needs real structural rebuilding rather than just a glow. Both approaches prompt fresh collagen from within, so results can keep improving for months after treatment.

What These Treatments Help With

Fine lines and early wrinkles, loose or lax-feeling skin, acne scars and other scarring, large pores, uneven texture, and deeper sun damage or uneven tone with CO₂ resurfacing.

What to Expect

Treatment protocols vary and are tailored to each individual. Recovery can range from about 1 day to 7 days, depending on the approach and depth of treatment.

What Is RF Microneedling?

Tiny needles create micro-channels in the skin while delivering radiofrequency energy at precise, adjustable depths.

This combination triggers your body’s natural collagen-building response with less visible downtime than a laser alone, and can be customized layer by layer for your specific skin and goals.

What Is CO₂ Resurfacing?

A fractional CO₂ laser removes and renews controlled columns of skin, reaching deeper than microneedling alone. It’s a more intensive treatment with more downtime, reserved for more pronounced sun damage, scarring, or fine lines that need a bigger reset.

The Technology We Use

Secret Pro™ RFM

Cutera’s Secret Pro platform delivers RF microneedling with customizable depth and energy for texture, large pores, acne scars, and mild skin laxity with minimal downtime.

Secret Pro™ CO₂

The same Secret Pro platform offers a fractional CO₂ mode for deeper resurfacing when more significant sun damage, fine lines, and scarring need a dramatic reset.

ZenTite™ RFM

ZenTite’s STEP™ technology treats up to five depths in one session with an ultra-fine needle, designed for less discomfort and a short recovery window of about 24 hours.
