Frequently Asked Questions
What is Quantum RF? Quantum RF is a minimally invasive treatment that delivers radiofrequency energy through a small cannula beneath the skin, under local anesthesia. Per InMode’s device specifications, it reaches depths of up to 60mm and is indicated for soft tissue contraction.
How is Quantum RF different from Morpheus8? Quantum RF uses a cannula under local anesthesia to reach depths up to 60mm, treating the body, jawline, and neck. Morpheus8 combines RF energy with microneedling under topical numbing to treat the face and body at shallow depths.
Does Quantum RF require anesthesia? Yes. Quantum RF is performed under local anesthesia, administered by the treating provider before the cannula is inserted.
How many Quantum RF sessions are needed? The practice’s clinical experience is that many patients see meaningful results from a single session, with some pursuing 2–3 sessions for more pronounced contouring. The treating provider recommends a plan based on individual goals.
When will I see results? Some tightening is noticeable shortly after treatment as existing collagen contracts. Continued improvement typically develops over the following weeks to months as new collagen forms, with results varying by individual.
How long do results last? Duration varies by patient and can be long-lasting with appropriate aftercare, influenced by age, skin condition, and lifestyle. Touch-up sessions can extend results over time.
What areas does Quantum RF treat? Quantum RF treats the jawline, neck, arms, abdomen, thighs, back, chest, and knees. It is not performed on the upper face — cheeks, eyes, and forehead are excluded.
Is Quantum RF safe for dark skin tones? Quantum RF’s radiofrequency energy is not designed to target melanin, which differs mechanically from some laser treatments — though individual candidacy and settings are confirmed at consultation.
What are the risks of Quantum RF? Similar cannula-based RF devices report temporary swelling, bruising, and localized numbness lasting one to two weeks, with infection or scarring occurring in a small minority of cases. It is not a weight-loss treatment or a substitute for surgery for significant excess skin.
What is recovery like after Quantum RF? Most patients resume normal activity within about a week, though this varies by treatment area. Swelling, redness, or mild bruising is common in the days following treatment.
Who is not a candidate for Quantum RF? Patients who are pregnant, have certain medical conditions, or have metal implants in the treatment area may not be candidates. A consultation confirms individual candidacy.
How much does Quantum RF cost? Quantum RF starts at $3,000 for the under-chin area and $3,500 for one full area at Med Aesthetics Miami. Total cost depends on the number of areas treated.
