You may know exactly what bothers you about your skin and still have no idea which treatment name belongs beside it. RF microneedling, IPL PhotoFacials, and Aerolase® can sit close together on an aesthetics menu even though they use different technologies and Skinpedia & Co. gives them different treatment roles.
Skinpedia & Co. currently offers all three, including single and multi-session options for some services. The useful comparison starts with the concern you want to address, then looks at what each treatment actually does.

The biggest difference appears in the treatment method itself. RF microneedling combines needles with radiofrequency energy, IPL uses targeted pulses of light, and Aerolase® ACNE TREATMENT uses laser technology for acne-related concerns.
