Microneedling vs. RF Microneedling… what’s the difference? 👀 Both treatments use tiny needles to stimulate collagen and can improve things like acne scars, texture, pores and fine lines. The difference is what happens beneath the skin: 🪡 Microneedling uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries that stimulate your skin’s natural collagen production. It’s a great option for improving texture, acne scars, pores and overall skin rejuvenation. 🪡⚡ RF microneedling combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy, which delivers controlled heat deeper into the skin. This adds another layer of collagen remodeling and can be especially helpful when skin laxity or tightening is also a concern. So, which one is right for you? That depends on your skin, your concerns and your goals, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer. Follow Eternal Dermatology for more real life skincare + treatment education, especially for skin of color. 🤎 Have a treatment you want Dr. Rodney to break down next?

Not every lump or bump is something to worry about but every new or changing bump is worth having your dermatologist take a look at. 👀 Two common examples are cysts and lipomas: ✨ Cysts are typically sac-like growths filled with fluid, keratin, or other material. ✨ Lipomas are benign growths made up of fat cells and often feel soft and movable under the skin. And when removal is appropriate, many of these bumps can be removed right here in the office with a relatively simple procedure. The important part? Don’t diagnose the bump yourself or assume it’s “just a cyst.” Let your dermatologist evaluate it and determine what it is and whether removal is necessary. Have a lump or bump you’ve been wondering about? Book an appointment with Eternal Dermatology, we’ll take a look. 🤎 #blackdermatologist #cystremoval #lipoma
