The Difference Between Microneedling and Radiofrequency Microneedling
At Baltic Beauty Centre, we understand that every skin type is unique and so should be the treatments we offer. In the quest for flawless, youthful skin, microneedling has emerged as a popular anti-aging treatment. However, with advancements in technology, radiofrequency microneedling (RF microneedling) has also gained popularity as a powerful enhancement to the traditional technique. Both microneedling treatment methods have distinct benefits and can be pivotal parts of an anti-aging regimen.Â
In this comprehensive guide we will explore the differences between ProCell Microneedling (also known as Microchanneling) and Ematrix RF Microneedling, helping you understand which treatment—or combination of treatments—can best achieve your skincare goals.
Understanding Microneedling and RF Microneedling
Microneedling, specifically ProCell Microneedling, is a procedure that involves the use of a device equipped with small, fine needles to create tiny punctures in the top layer of the skin. This process initiates the body’s natural wound healing mechanisms, stimulating collagen and elastin production. The result is rejuvenated skin that appears more youthful, smooth, and can significantly reduce the appearance of scars, wrinkles, and large pores.
Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling takes this process a step further by combining the traditional microneedling technique with radiofrequency energy. The Ematrix system at Baltic Beauty Centre uses RF energy which is delivered through the microneedles. As the needles penetrate the skin, they emit RF energy into the dermis. This not only boosts the collagen production effect of standard microneedling but also tightens the skin as the RF energy stimulates deeper layers of collagen and supports the restructuring of elastin fibers.

Benefits of ProCell Microneedling
ProCell Microneedling is particularly effective for treating surface-level skin issues and enhancing skin texture and tone. Here are some of the key benefits:
- Improved Skin Texture and Tone: Regular treatments can significantly smooth the skin’s surface and improve overall skin tone, reducing the appearance of age spots and other pigmentations.
- Reduction in Scars and Pores: Effective in reducing acne scars and enlarged pores by promoting collagen production to heal and fill in these imperfections.
- Enhanced Product Absorption: The micro-channels created by the microneedles allow for better absorption of topical products, making them more effective.
- Safe for Most Skin Types: Since it doesn’t involve heat, ProCell Microneedling is generally safe for all skin tones without risk of hyperpigmentation.
Benefits of Ematrix RF Microneedling
While Ematrix RF Microneedling includes all the benefits of traditional microneedling, it also brings additional advantages thanks to the integration of RF energy:
- Tightening and Lifting Effect: The RF energy helps to tighten loose skin, making it ideal for treating skin laxity and fine lines, especially around the eyes and lower face.
- Deeper Collagen Stimulation: RF energy penetrates deeper into the dermis, enhancing collagen production more significantly than microneedling alone.
- Minimal Downtime: Despite the use of RF energy, the treatment has minimal downtime, similar to regular microneedling.
- Effective on All Skin Types: Like ProCell Microneedling, Ematrix is effective across different skin types and tones, providing a safe treatment option with minimal risk of side effects.
