Facial Contouring that Eliminates Under-Eye Bags, Double Chins, & More with Agnes RF Microneedling at EvolvMD
AGNES RF Microneedling is a unique form of microneedling that non-surgically contours the face permanently with surgical-like precision. AGNES RF results are permanent.
What makes this possible? Agnes RF uses radiofrequency energy to heat the cell membrane and destroy the fat cell. That dead cell is then removed by the lymphatic system; once a fat cell is dead it cannot return.
Radiofrequency also stimulates the fibroblast cells to produce collagen and elastin to improve the overall appearance of the skin. Initially, after targeting fat cells, you’re going to lose tightness. Agnes, on its own, has some tightening capacity, but we enhance those with treatments like Sylfirm.
In most cases, patients interested in Agnes RF are looking for a solution for double chin, under-eye bags, and hooded eyelids.
- Agnes RF delivers radiofrequency energy directly into the targeted fat cells under the chin. This reduces fat volume and tightens the surrounding skin, creating a more defined jawline. The stimulation also produces collagen and elastin, which can ultimately enhance skin firmness and reduce the appearance of sagging.
- The combination of micro-injuries and radiofrequency delivered by Agnes RF penetrates the delicate under-eye area, increasing the production of collagen and elastin while targeting puffy fat deposits and reducing their size.
- Similarly, the microneedling/radiofrequency combination of Agnes RF perfectly targets hooded eyelids, reducing fatty deposits and tightening the skin to lessen the hooded effect.

Agnes RF Microneedling for Cystic Acne
AGNES RF was created to be an alternative to Accutane. Agnes RF uses a combination of heat and microneedles to target deep, medium or superficial fat tissue in the face, which will stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin.
Agnes was developed over 20 years ago to destroy and eliminate sebaceous oil glands, which cause acne and blackheads. Agnes RF Microneedling treatments for acne will permanently destroy the glands that cause acne. The heat shrinks or destroys the sebaceous gland, leading to smaller pores and reduced cystic acne.
While we recommend Agnes RF as an option for cystic acne, we also recommend Aerolase Neo Elite. For more information on which option makes the most sense for your skin condition, contact us directly.
Frequently Asked Questions About Agnes RF Microneedling in Milwaukee, WI
AGNES can treat all ages and skin types effectively with little downtime.
Bruising and swelling are common post-treatment but are temporary. We recommend using natural remedies that include Arnica Montana, Bromelain, and Vitamin K for recovery. We carry a formulation in the office that is a combination of all 3 of these products and will help bruising dissipate in half the time.
In most cases, you can return to work the next day. However, we recommend giving yourself 1-2 weeks time to get comfortably healed before a big event like a wedding or major gathering. This will vary from person to person, but you should feel back to normal within a few weeks.
The number of treatments will vary based on individual concerns. Overall skin health, age, and baseline elasticity are a few variables to consider. Most people will benefit from a total of 2-3 treatments spaced 2 months apart.
While the fat is destroyed immediately it takes time for your body to remove it and heal. Initially, with the swelling, it is common for the area to look worse for the first few days. As the swelling dissipates and the collagen remodeling begins improvement will begin to be seen. Full results may take several months to develop.
The destroyed fat is a permanent result but the skin will continue to age as the years go by. To maintain results AGNES should be combined with medical-grade skincare such as Neocutis or Skinceuticals and treatments such as our Scarlet Radiofrequency Microneedling.
The biggest difference is that we’re not limited by the number of pulses we can use to target an area with Agnes RF. With Kybella, you’re buying it by the quantity so you’re limited unless you’re willing to spend the money to treat the area. Agnes RF is also not as inflammatory; there will still be swelling, but you can expect it to be on the milder side.
