Better Med Spa & Wellness offers advanced RF Microneedling at our Lincoln Park location, 2117 N Halsted St, Chicago, IL 60614. This breakthrough skin rejuvenation treatment combines micro-fine needles with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen deep within the dermis - tightening, smoothing, and revitalizing your skin from the inside out. We serve clients from Lincoln Park, Old Town, Lakeview, Bucktown, River North, West Loop, and the Gold Coast.
RF Microneedling merges two proven technologies: precision microneedling and radiofrequency energy. As the device creates tiny controlled channels in the skin's surface, it simultaneously delivers RF energy deep into the dermis, heating underlying tissues to activate your body's natural collagen and elastin production.
This dual-action process triggers a powerful healing response that tightens and firms skin, smooths texture, and refines tone — all with minimal downtime. Most clients see visible improvement after their first session, with optimal results building over a series of 3–6 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart.

RF Microneedling
Many clients start with SkinPen Microneedling for general texture improvement, then graduate to RF Microneedling when they want more aggressive tightening and lifting results. Your provider will recommend the best option during your consultation.
Before treatment: A prescription-strength topical numbing cream is applied for 30–45 minutes to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
During treatment (30–45 minutes): Your provider uses the RF microneedling device across the treatment area, delivering controlled RF energy through ultra-fine needles. Most patients describe the sensation as a warm, prickly feeling — very tolerable with numbing.
After treatment: Expect mild redness and warmth (like a light sunburn) for 24–72 hours. Most clients feel comfortable returning to normal activities the next day. Avoid direct sun, active skincare products, and heavy makeup for 48 hours.
Results timeline: Initial glow within 1–2 weeks. Significant improvements in texture, firmness, and tone build over 2–3 months as new collagen matures. Optimal results after completing a full series of 3–6 sessions.
