Quadessy Hybrid RFMN in Sacramento & Davis, CA

Quadessy is a next-generation radiofrequency microneedling treatment that delivers synchronized RF energy to three layers of the skin in a single pass, cutting typical treatment time by more than half while improving tightening, texture, and tone. Davis Dermatology now offers Quadessy for patients seeking faster, more comfortable RF microneedling.

Why Davis Dermatology Added Quadessy

Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Earlyn Noll has led Davis Dermatology to 15 consecutive years as Yolo County's top-voted dermatology practice by evaluating new technology on results, safety, and patient comfort rather than novelty. Quadessy earned a place at the practice because it solves a real problem with earlier RF microneedling devices: long treatment times that cut into both patient comfort and practice efficiency. Every Quadessy treatment at Davis Dermatology is performed or directly overseen by Dr. Noll.

What Is Quadessy?

Quadessy is a hybrid radiofrequency microneedling (RFMN) device that combines non-invasive surface RF with fractional RF microneedling in one pass. Its DualDepth pulse works in two stages:

Surface RF: Non-invasive energy delivers controlled bulk heating at the skin's surface, improving results and enabling smoother needle entry.
Fractional RF microneedling: Synchronized energy is then delivered simultaneously to the epidermis, papillary dermis, and reticular dermis.

Together, this multi-layer stimulation improves tightening, texture, tone, and elasticity in a single pass. Radiofrequency microneedling, as a category, is well established in dermatology, combining traditional microneedling with RF energy delivered into the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production and improve skin texture, tone, and laxity.

Benefits of Quadessy

Synchronized multi-layer RF energy delivery cuts treatment time by more than 50% compared to earlier RFMN devices
Adaptive Energy Control automatically adjusts RF output in real time based on skin impedance for consistent, safer energy delivery
Three interchangeable handpieces allow customization for different treatment areas, including precision zones like the mouth, eyes, and jawline
Improves tightening, texture, tone, and elasticity in a single treatment session

Are You a Candidate for Quadessy?

Quadessy is well-suited to patients dealing with early skin laxity, uneven texture, enlarged pores, or mild acne scarring who want a faster in-office treatment. A consultation with Dr. Noll will help confirm whether Quadessy is right for your skin type, concerns, and goals.

What to Expect Before, During, and After

Consultation

Dr. Noll will assess your skin and discuss which of Quadessy's three handpieces, or a combination of handpieces, best addresses your concerns.

Treatment

Quadessy's synchronized RF delivery allows a full face and neck treatment to be completed in a fraction of the time earlier RFMN devices required, often in well under an hour.

Recovery and results

Downtime is typically minimal, with some redness in the days following treatment. Collagen remodeling continues over the following weeks to months, and a short series of sessions may be recommended for optimal results.

Quadessy vs. Virtue RF Microneedling

Davis Dermatology also offers Virtue RF microneedling. Quadessy's advantage is its speed and ability to deliver energy to three skin layers simultaneously in a single pass, rather than requiring separate passes. Dr. Noll can help determine which RFMN option best fits your treatment area and goals.

Physician-Led for an Elite Experience

Speed shouldn't come at the cost of safety, and that's precisely why Dr. Noll evaluated Quadessy so carefully before bringing it to Davis Dermatology. Her willingness to move quickly with newer technology, paired with her insistence on personally overseeing every treatment, is what has kept patients returning to the practice year after year.

FAQs

Is RF microneedling safe?

When performed or supervised by a board-certified physician, RF microneedling has a strong safety record. In October 2025, the FDA issued a safety communication about serious complications reported with certain uses of RF microneedling devices, including burns, scarring, and nerve damage. In response, the American Academy of Dermatology reaffirmed that RF microneedling remains safe when performed under proper medical supervision. It emphasized that patients should seek treatment only from a licensed, trained provider. At Davis Dermatology, every Quadessy treatment is performed or directly overseen by Dr. Noll, a board-certified dermatologist.

How long does a Quadessy treatment take?

Quadessy's synchronized energy delivery significantly reduces treatment time compared to earlier RFMN devices, often allowing a full-face and neck session in a fraction of the time previously required.

What is the downtime after Quadessy?

Most patients experience mild redness for a day or two, with normal activities resumed shortly after treatment.

How many sessions will I need?

This depends on your skin concerns. Dr. Noll will recommend a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.
