EVOLV Plastic Surgery & Medical Aesthetics in Toledo now offers the industry standard in radio frequency energy delivery.

Micro or skin ‘needling’ is a non-surgical skin treatment that utilizes and stimulates the natural rejuvenating powers of the skin tissues to restore healthy cell function, improve skin tone and youthfulness, and even improve scarring. Many patients searching for microneedling with radiofrequency near me choose this treatment because of its ability to deliver long-lasting results safely and effectively. Microneedling is often combined with topical growth factors or other medical skin care products, as well as performed with radio frequency (RF) energy (Infini Genius) to improve and enhance results.

This advanced treatment works by triggering the body’s own healing response, increasing collagen and elastin production—key components of firm, youthful skin. Whether addressing fine lines, skin laxity, enlarged pores, or acne scarring, microneedling in Toledo at EVOLV provides a safe, proven solution tailored to your needs. With minimal downtime and long-term benefits, it’s ideal for patients seeking visible improvement without surgery. Each treatment plan is personalized by EVOLV’s expert team and may include advanced RF microneedling technologies such as Sylfirm X or Infini Genius, which deliver deeper collagen remodeling, enhanced skin tightening, and targeted solutions for a variety of concerns, including stubborn pigmentation and vascular redness.

THE PROCEDURE

What It Is

Microneedling refers to the use of tiny needles to make micro-punctures in the skin surface at different depths to stimulate the comprehensive powers of natural wound healing and to also improve topical skin care product penetration. Skin needling may be done at variable depths. ‘Cosmetic’ micro-needling refers to more superficial penetration in the outer skin layers and can improve cell function and appearance as well as increase topical product absorption. ‘Dermal’ microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, refers to needling into the deeper layers of the skin (the dermis), and can significantly increase collagen, elastin, and growth factor production, and also improve scars on the skin surface. Combining topical products such as growth factors or platelet-rich plasma with microneedling can result in more dramatic and impactful overall improvement. Micro-needling can be done not only on the face and neck, but anywhere on the body to improve skin health, tone, and youthfulness.

This versatile treatment is safe for all skin tones and can be fully customized based on your skin’s unique condition and goals. Whether addressing early signs of aging, sun damage, or uneven texture, microneedling promotes long-term rejuvenation from the inside out. Each procedure in Toledo is paired with medical-grade skincare products to optimize healing and maximize results. Our advanced RF microneedling technology combines the collagen-stimulating effects of microneedling with targeted radiofrequency energy to tighten skin, remodel collagen, and address a variety of concerns, from fine lines and scars to pigmentation and redness.

How It Works

During a microneedling session at EVOLV in Toledo, tiny sterile needles create precise micro-injuries in the skin, triggering a natural healing response that boosts collagen, elastin, and fibroblast activity—key to firmer, smoother, and healthier-looking skin. When paired with topical growth factors or platelet-rich plasma (PRP), results are further enhanced, offering more visible rejuvenation. For patients seeking deeper skin tightening, improved texture, or correction of pigmentation and vascular concerns, RF microneedling technology delivers controlled thermal energy deep into the dermis, stimulating advanced collagen remodeling for longer-lasting, more comprehensive results—all with minimal downtime and high patient comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if microneedling is right for me?

During your initial consultation and evaluation at EVOLV, your professional provider will review all options that will address your concerns and goals. Dr. Barone and the EVOLV professional staff have extensive experience and many years of training in all state-of-the-art surgical as well as non-surgical treatment options that are clinically proven to be safe and effective. Your most important decision is finding an experienced and credentialed, board-certified plastic surgeon and professional support staff that you can trust.

What are other options besides microneedling procedures?

Your EVOLV professional staff have many years of experience in all clinically proven aesthetic treatment options and technologies which will be reviewed with you in creating a specific treatment plan to address your goals and concerns. Other effective skin rejuvenation or scar treatment options include RF Microneedling (Infini Genius), chemical peels and laser resurfacing which are also offered at EVOLV Medical Aesthetics and Plastic Surgery. Because EVOLV uniquely has experience and offers both non-surgical as well as surgical cosmetic treatment options, a comprehensive treatment plan involving the most effective option can be created for each patient’s goals and concerns.

How much does microneedling at EVOLV usually cost?

The overall cost for the microneedling will depend on many factors including the depth and extent of the treatment and adding other complimentary procedures such as PRP, topical growth factors, or medical skin care products. For deeper needling or collagen induction therapy, red light LED therapy has been proven to reduce recovery time and improve healing and may be considered. All costs will be itemized and discussed with you before planning any treatment by your provider or our EVOLV Patient Coordinator.

Are all microneedling options the same?

Not at all because the type and depth of needling, the quality of the needles and the technique involved can vary greatly as can results. Deeper wrinkles, scars or more advanced skin damage and aging may require more aggressive and additional treatments. In our experience overall many years and thousands of treatments, the results with microneedling, as with any aesthetic procedure or treatment, depend mostly on the training and experience of the provider. In addition, the use of topical growth factors, PRP and other bioactive products can also significantly affect the outcome in microneedling treatments.

What is the expected recovery time after microneedling procedures?

Recovery time after microneedling will depend upon the depth and extent of the needling as well as the quality and time of skin preparation before the treatment. At EVOLV, we have found that personalized medical skin care programs before treatment can significantly impact the quality of results as well as the recovery. Superficial microneedling or ‘cosmetic’ needling does not typically require any downtime whereas deeper needling or ‘collagen induction therapy’ as well as RF microneedling (Infini Genius) will usually involve several days of downtime.

How long do the results of microneedling last?

The longevity of the results with microneedling as well as any skin treatment procedure, will essentially depend upon multiple factors including continuing regular treatments and consistent use of a personalized medical skin care program allows for longer-lasting results and better correction of your skin issues.

Can microneedling help with acne scars or stretch marks?

Yes, microneedling is clinically proven to improve acne scars and stretch marks by stimulating collagen production in the dermis.

How many microneedling sessions are typically needed for the best results?

Most patients see optimal results with a series of 3–6 treatments spaced several weeks apart, depending on skin condition and goals.

What should I avoid doing after a microneedling treatment?

Avoid sun exposure, makeup, strenuous exercise, and harsh skincare for at least 24–48 hours post-treatment.

Can microneedling be performed at home, and how does it compare to professional treatments?

At-home microneedling tools are less effective and carry higher risks. Professional microneedling at EVOLV uses medical-grade equipment for safer, more impactful results.

How does microneedling differ from RF (radiofrequency) microneedling?

RF microneedling combines needling with heat energy for deeper skin remodeling, making it more effective for laxity and deeper wrinkles.
