Pillar 2
This is a quick-reference guide for your first session with the Placeholder SKU C. Follow these exact steps and you will get a safe, effective first treatment.
| Step | Why this matters |
|---|---|
| Apply numbing cream 25 min prior | RF microneedling without numbing is uncomfortable. Lidocaine 5% is standard. |
| Cleanse face completely | Any oils or product residue can enter the channels. |
| Open new cartridge sealed bag | Single-use, sterile package. |
| Set depth to 0.5mm on first session | Establish your tolerance before going deeper. |
Use damp cloth. Skin must be dry for proper RF function.
Place the Placeholder SKU C on the side of your jaw. Press firmly so cartridge fully contacts skin. Activate. 3 stamps.
Forehead (10-12 stamps), each cheek (15 stamps), nose (5 stamps), chin (8 stamps), jawline (10 stamps each side).
Channels close in 30 minutes but maximum absorption is in the first minute. Apply hyaluronic acid serum.
Remove cartridge from Placeholder SKU C. Dispose in sharps container (or thick plastic container if no sharps available).
First 24 hours:
One cartridge covers the entire face once. For body areas, you may need 2-3 depending on area size.
Plan your sessions for the next 12 weeks.
