The FDA recently issued a public warning about the risks of radiofrequency microneedling, citing burns, scarring, fat loss, and nerve damage. Headlines blew up, social media panicked, and patients are left wondering: Is RF microneedling actually dangerous?
In this episode of The Trillium Show, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Hall breaks down the new FDA advisory in plain language. He explains what sparked the warning, what risks are legitimate, and what the FDA statement really means for patients and providers.
Dr. Hall covers:
- Why RF microneedling is considered a medical procedure, not a cosmetic service
- The complications the FDA highlighted and how often they actually happen
- Why experience, training, and device selection matter more than ever
- The difference between superficial treatments that build collagen and deeper devices that can destroy fat
- How informed consent and appropriate expectations minimize risk
- The “cowboy problem” with aggressive settings and one-and-done promises
If you’re considering RF microneedling (or offering it), this episode is essential listening.
