RF Microneedling in Mason City, IA

Bare Sugar Salon & Med Spa offers both the Exion and Morpheus8 state-of-the-art RF microneedling systems. RF microneedling can be performed anywhere on the body where skin tightening, firming, and overall skin renewal are needed. Most often, Exion and Morpheus8 are applied on the face, neck, chest, upper arms, and back of hands.

• Exion. This single-pass microneedling system reaches up to 8mm deep without full needle insertion, reducing discomfort while maximizing results.
• Morpheus8. This uses a matrix of microneedles to renew the deeper layers of the skin for resurfacing and subdermal renewal.

RF microneedling causes minimal discomfort, and the great majority of our Bare Sugar patients find it extremely tolerable. Most recipients describe the treatment as feeling a warming sensation coupled with a slight pricking or scraping sensation. It’s sometimes also compared to having a small rubber band snapped against the skin. Most sessions last from 15 minutes to an hour, and generally patients need 1 to 3 sessions to accomplish their goals.

We offer optional topical numbing cream for those with especially sensitive skin. During your consultation, we will discuss all the details and ensure your maximum comfort during your treatment.
