RF microneedling at MDCS Dermatology, performed by Christos Dimitris Zouzias, MD, MBA, can be combined with other body-contouring treatments to tighten skin, improve tone, and enhance results for a smoother, firmer appearance.

At MDCS Dermatology, patients often ask how to get the most out of their body-contouring procedures. Christos Dimitris Zouzias, MD, MBA specializes in advanced non-surgical treatments and frequently combines radiofrequency (RF) microneedling with other body contouring methods for enhanced, natural-looking results.

What Is RF Microneedling?

RF microneedling pairs traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy. Tiny needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin while RF heat penetrates deeper layers, stimulating collagen and elastin production. The result: firmer, smoother, more youthful-looking skin with improved tone and texture.

Why Combine RF Microneedling with Other Body Contouring Treatments?

Body contouring procedures such as BodyTite, Morpheus8 Body, or CoolSculpting target fat reduction and tissue tightening. By combining these treatments with RF microneedling, patients can address:

  • Skin Laxity: Tighten and firm areas after fat reduction.

  • Texture & Tone: Improve stretch marks, scars, and crepey skin.

  • Comprehensive Results: Treat both the skin’s surface and underlying tissue for a more sculpted appearance.

Popular Combination Approaches

  • RF Microneedling + BodyTite: Enhances skin tightening after RF-assisted fat reduction.

  • RF Microneedling + CoolSculpting: Improves skin tone and firmness following fat-freezing treatments.

  • RF Microneedling + Morpheus8 Body: Targets both deep tissue and superficial skin issues simultaneously.

What to Expect During Treatment

Each plan is tailored to your goals. Treatments are typically spaced a few weeks apart to allow for healing and optimal results. Most patients experience mild redness or swelling for a few days following RF microneedling, but downtime is minimal compared to surgery.
