Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure that uses high-frequency radio waves to precisely target and remove unwanted skin growths or imperfections. These radio waves generate gentle heat that vaporizes damaged or excess tissue while protecting surrounding healthy skin—making it a superior alternative to traditional treatments. With its ability to deliver excellent cosmetic results and minimal downtime, RFA has become a gold-standard option for skin rejuvenation.At HALOS Dermatology and Aesthetics in Aminjikarai, Chennai, we provide advanced RFA treatments using FDA-approved technology with a high level of medical precision. Designed for those who desire visible skin transformation without going under the knife, RFA stimulates collagen remodeling, improves skin texture, and firms sagging skin—delivering natural-looking results with minimal recovery time.

Under the expert care of Dr. Prasanthi G, MD, who brings over a decade of experience in aesthetic dermatology, every session is thoughtfully personalized. Whether you’re dealing with acne scars, sagging jawlines, stretch marks, or enlarged pores, our state-of-the-art RF tools are designed to reach deeper layers of the skin without affecting the surface. The results develop gradually but last impressively long—making RFA one of the most trusted treatments for healthy, radiant skin in Chennai.

Why Choose RF Ablation for Your Skin Concerns?

Precision Targeting: RF ablation offers highly accurate removal of skin lesions, protecting the surrounding healthy tissue and minimizing the chances of scarring.

Minimal Discomfort: The treatment is usually carried out under local anesthesia, making the experience comfortable. Most patients report minimal to no pain during or post-procedure.

Quick & Convenient: RF ablation sessions are often very brief—many completed in just a few minutes—making it a perfect option for those looking for a “lunchtime” treatment.

Excellent Cosmetic Results: This procedure encourages faster recovery and greatly reduces the likelihood of scarring when compared to traditional surgical techniques, resulting in clearer and smoother skin.

Reduced Bleeding: The heat generated by radio waves seals blood vessels during the procedure, resulting in minimal bleeding.

Versatile Treatment: It effectively treats a wide variety of benign skin conditions, including different types of warts, DPNs, and moles.

RF Ablation: What Skin Concerns Can It Address?

Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is a highly precise, minimally invasive procedure ideal for treating various benign skin conditions. From stubborn warts and moles to cosmetic concerns like DPN (Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra), RFA delivers safe and effective removal without scarring. Its precision ensures surrounding healthy tissue remains untouched, making it suitable even for delicate facial areas. With minimal downtime and excellent cosmetic outcomes, RFA is a trusted choice for skin lesion management.

Warts

Whether it’s common warts, plantar warts, or flat warts, RF ablation provides a highly effective solution by targeting the wart tissue directly. This technique minimizes damage to surrounding skin and is known to reduce recurrence rates when compared to cryotherapy or topical treatments.

Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (DPN)

DPNs are small, dark, benign skin growths typically found on the cheeks, temples, and neck—especially among individuals with darker skin. RF ablation offers a precise and safe method to remove these lesions, leaving behind clearer skin with minimal risk of pigmentation changes or scarring.

Moles

Benign moles or nevi that pose cosmetic concerns or tend to get irritated by clothing or shaving can be effectively removed through RF ablation. The procedure ensures accurate removal with minimal trauma to adjacent skin, preserving your natural skin texture and tone.

Afterward, there might be slight redness or puffiness, which usually subsides in a few hours.

Most clients start noticing skin improvements after the first or second session, with full results visible by 4–6 weeks. For best outcomes, we usually recommend a course of 3–4 sessions spaced a month apart.
