Scarlet RF Microneedling in Marietta, GA

Scarlet RF takes microneedling a step further by delivering radiofrequency energy through the microneedles into the treated tissue.

At New You Aesthetic, Scarlet RF Microneedling is a medical aesthetic procedure used when we're looking for more than traditional microneedling alone. The device combines controlled needle penetration with radiofrequency energy delivered at selected depths, creating controlled thermal coagulation within the tissue.

Scarlet treatments are customized according to the treatment area, your skin, medical history and goals.

New You Aesthetic offers Scarlet RF Microneedling in Marietta, Georgia, serving clients throughout West Cobb and surrounding communities.

What Is Scarlet RF Microneedling?

Scarlet SRF is a professional radiofrequency microneedling device. Its sterile, single-use treatment tip contains gold-plated needle electrodes that penetrate the skin and deliver bipolar RF energy into the targeted tissue.

The combination of needle penetration and RF energy creates controlled zones of thermal coagulation at selected depths. This is different from standard microneedling, which creates controlled micro-injuries mechanically but does not deliver radiofrequency energy.

What Do We Use Scarlet RF For?

Scarlet may be considered when the goal is to improve the overall appearance and texture of the skin or when a provider believes RF microneedling is appropriate within a skin-rejuvenation plan.

Clients often ask us about Scarlet for concerns such as:

• The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven-looking skin texture
• Acne scarring
• Skin that appears less firm
• Overall facial and neck rejuvenation

Not every concern is best treated with RF microneedling, and not every aesthetic use discussed online is necessarily an FDA-cleared indication for a specific device. Your provider will evaluate what you're trying to improve and discuss whether Scarlet or another treatment makes more sense.

How Much Is Scarlet RF at New You?

Single Scarlet RF Microneedling treatment: $650

Package of 3 Scarlet RF treatments: $1,650

The package saves $300 compared with purchasing three individual treatments.

While an individual treatment may be appropriate for some clients, we often recommend a series of 3 when the goal is meaningful skin remodeling. RF microneedling works by creating controlled micro-injuries and thermal effects that initiate a healing and remodeling response. Those changes develop gradually rather than all at once.

Spacing a series of treatments gives the skin time to recover and remodel between sessions while allowing us to build on the treatment plan over time. Your provider will recommend the appropriate spacing based on your skin, treatment settings and goals.

Scarlet RF vs. SkinPen Microneedling

This is one of the most useful comparisons to understand.

SkinPen is traditional microneedling. It creates controlled microchannels in the skin to initiate a wound-healing response and collagen remodeling.

Scarlet RF combines microneedle penetration with radiofrequency energy, adding controlled thermal energy within the targeted tissue.

That doesn't make Scarlet automatically “better” than SkinPen. They are different tools. SkinPen may be exactly what we want for one client, while RF microneedling may make more sense for another.

What Happens During a Scarlet Treatment?

Your appointment begins with an assessment of your skin, medical history and goals. A topical numbing cream is typically applied before treatment for comfort.

During treatment, the Scarlet handpiece places the microneedle electrodes into the skin and delivers RF energy according to the settings selected by the trained provider. Treatment parameters can be adjusted based on the area being treated and your individual plan.

Your provider will give you specific post-treatment instructions before you leave.

Does Scarlet RF Hurt?

A topical numbing cream is typically used before treatment. You may still feel pressure, warmth or brief discomfort during the procedure. Sensation varies by person, treatment area and settings.

Tell your provider if you're uncomfortable during treatment so the experience can be managed appropriately.

What Is the Downtime?

Redness, swelling, warmth, tenderness, dryness or temporary changes in skin texture can occur following RF microneedling. Recovery varies according to the individual and treatment settings.

Plan treatment with enough recovery time before an important event rather than assuming you'll look completely untouched the next morning.

When Will I See Results?

RF microneedling is not an instant-result procedure. Changes related to tissue healing and remodeling develop over time.

Some clients may notice changes as initial redness and swelling resolve, while other changes may continue to develop during the weeks following treatment. More than one treatment may be recommended depending on your goals.

Individual results vary, and maintenance treatments may be appropriate over time.

Why Do We Often Recommend a Series of 3 Scarlet Treatments?

Scarlet isn't designed around an instant, one-and-done change. RF microneedling initiates a wound-healing and tissue-remodeling response, and those changes develop gradually after treatment.

For clients working on concerns such as texture, acne scarring, fine lines or skin firmness, we often recommend a series of 3 treatments. Repeating treatment at appropriate intervals allows the skin to recover between sessions while giving us multiple opportunities to address the treatment area and build on the overall plan.

That doesn't mean every person automatically needs three treatments. Your provider will consider your skin, concern, treatment area, previous procedures and response to treatment. But when Scarlet is being used as a corrective treatment rather than an occasional maintenance treatment, a series is often the approach we recommend.

Package of 3: $1,650 — a $300 savings compared with three individual $650 treatments.

Scarlet RF vs. Other New You Treatments

Scarlet is one tool within a much larger skin-treatment menu.

SkinPen: traditional microneedling without RF energy.

NeoGen PSR: a different energy-based treatment using plasma rather than needles and radiofrequency.

Chemical peels: use chemical exfoliation rather than microneedles or RF energy.

Facials: focus on customized professional skincare, cleansing, hydration and maintenance rather than controlled thermal injury.

Your provider can help determine which treatment actually matches the concern instead of simply choosing whichever machine currently has the most impressive acronym.

RF Microneedling Safety Matters

RF microneedling is a medical procedure, not an at-home cosmetic treatment. Proper patient selection, device settings, technique and provider training matter.

The FDA has reported serious complications with certain uses of RF microneedling devices, including burns, scarring, fat loss, nerve damage and other injuries. That does not mean these complications occur in every treatment, but it does mean the procedure deserves an appropriate medical assessment and an informed conversation about risks and benefits.

At New You, your provider will determine whether RF microneedling is appropriate for you and review treatment-specific risks, expectations and aftercare.

Who May Not Be a Candidate for Scarlet RF?

RF microneedling is not appropriate for everyone. Certain medical conditions, active skin infections or inflammation, implanted electrical devices, medications, pregnancy, healing concerns, recent procedures and other factors may affect candidacy.

Tell your provider about your complete medical history, medications, implants, allergies, active skin conditions and recent aesthetic treatments before your appointment.

Scarlet RF Microneedling Frequently Asked Questions

Is Scarlet the same as regular microneedling?

No. Scarlet combines microneedles with radiofrequency energy. Traditional microneedling such as SkinPen does not deliver RF energy.

Does Scarlet tighten skin?

RF microneedling creates controlled thermal effects in tissue, and clients commonly seek these treatments when skin firmness is a concern. The appropriate treatment and expected degree of improvement vary by individual, so we avoid promising a specific amount of “tightening.”

Can Scarlet help acne scars?

RF microneedling may be considered within treatment plans for certain scars and texture concerns. Your provider will assess the type and severity of scarring and determine whether Scarlet, SkinPen or another treatment is appropriate.

Does Scarlet shrink pores?

We don't promise permanent pore shrinking. Treatments that improve overall skin texture can affect how visible pores appear, but pore size is influenced by several factors.

Can Scarlet be used on the neck?

The treatment area and device settings must be selected by your trained provider. If the neck is one of your concerns, we'll evaluate the area and discuss whether Scarlet is appropriate.

How much does Scarlet RF cost?

Scarlet RF Microneedling at New You Aesthetic is $650 for a single treatment or $1,650 for a package of 3. The 3-treatment package saves $300 compared with purchasing three treatments individually.

Why is Scarlet often done in a series of 3?

RF microneedling results develop through healing and tissue remodeling over time. For clients treating concerns such as texture, acne scarring, fine lines or skin firmness, a series gives the skin time to recover between appropriately spaced treatments while allowing the treatment plan to build over multiple sessions. Your provider will determine whether three treatments are appropriate for you.

Is there downtime?

There can be. Redness, swelling, warmth, tenderness, dryness and temporary texture changes may occur. Your provider will explain what to expect based on your treatment plan.

How is Scarlet different from SkinPen?

Both use microneedles, but Scarlet also delivers radiofrequency energy into the targeted tissue. SkinPen is traditional microneedling without RF.

Is RF microneedling safe?

RF microneedling is a medical procedure with potential benefits and risks. The FDA has reported serious complications with certain uses of RF microneedling, which is one reason treatment should be performed by an appropriately trained, licensed healthcare professional after proper assessment.
