Matrix Pro Treatment Overview
Controlled RF Stimulation for Skin Refinement
Matrix Pro uses ultra-fine microneedles combined with short-pulse radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production at targeted depths. Energy delivery is continuously adjusted based on tissue resistance, allowing consistent stimulation while protecting surrounding skin.
At Gerrish MedEsthetics, Matrix Pro is introduced when the skin benefits from uniform dermal stimulation rather than depth-specific correction or ablative resurfacing. Treatment planning emphasizes predictability, skin tolerance, and long-term integrity.
Every plan balances art and science. Not every skin concern requires aggressive intervention.
How Matrix Pro Is Used Within AGE Technologies™
Technology Is a Tool. Timing Is the Treatment.
Matrix Pro may be considered based on:
- Early to moderate skin laxity
- Fine lines or textural irregularities
- Acne scarring or uneven surface quality
- Overall skin resilience and recovery capacity
- Desire for stimulation without extended downtime
All decisions are guided by The AGE Method™, Dr. Gerrish’s proprietary diagnostic and sequencing framework. Matrix Pro is selected when consistent dermal stimulation is preferred over focal or structural correction.
Clinical Guardrails
What We Don’t Do Matters
We do not use Matrix Pro as aggressive resurfacing
We do not over-stimulate inflamed or compromised skin
We do not stack RF treatments unnecessarily
We do not sacrifice recovery for speed
We do not promise instant tightening
Matrix Pro works best when tissue response unfolds gradually.
What Can Be Addressed
Matrix Pro RF Microneedling may be appropriate for addressing:
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Mild to moderate skin laxity
- Acne scarring and uneven texture
- Dull or fatigued skin tone
- Loss of firmness without significant volume loss
Suitability is determined during consultation. Matrix Pro is not intended for deep fat modulation or structural correction.
What to Expect
Session Length: Approximately 30–60 minutes, depending on treatment area
Comfort: Topical numbing is used to support tolerance
Downtime: Mild redness or swelling may occur, typically resolving within 1–2 days
Aftercare: Gentle skincare and sun protection are recommended during recovery. AGE ClockWork™ homecare is introduced to support healing, protect skin integrity, and extend results between treatments.
Results develop progressively as collagen remodeling occurs.

Quick answers to questions you may have
Q: How does Matrix Pro differ from traditional microneedling?
A: Traditional microneedling relies on mechanical stimulation alone. Matrix Pro combines ultra-fine microneedles with short-pulse radiofrequency energy, allowing controlled dermal stimulation and collagen remodeling at precise depths with greater consistency and predictability.
Q: How does Matrix Pro differ from Agnes RF?
A: Matrix Pro is designed for uniform dermal stimulation and textural refinement. Agnes RF is used for depth-specific correction, such as targeting sebaceous glands or localized fat. The two technologies are selected based on the concern being addressed and are not interchangeable.
Q: When do results begin to appear?
A: Some patients notice early improvements in texture or firmness within the first few weeks. Continued refinement develops gradually as collagen remodeling unfolds over time.
Q: Is Matrix Pro appropriate for different skin tones?
A: Yes. When used thoughtfully and sequenced appropriately, Matrix Pro can be used across a wide range of skin types. Suitability is assessed during consultation.
Q:Can LaseMD be combined with other treatments?
A: In many cases, yes. LaseMD may be sequenced with other AGE Technologies™ or AGE Essentials™ when it supports the overall plan and skin readiness. This is where Dr. Gerrish and the team’s expertise matters most. Knowing how and when to layer treatments is essential to achieving results while protecting skin integrity.
Q: Does Matrix Pro require downtime?
A: Downtime is typically minimal. Temporary redness or swelling may occur and usually resolves within one to two days. Most patients resume normal activities shortly after treatment.
Is Matrix Pro Right for You?
Matrix Pro may be appropriate if you:
• Want gradual firming and texture improvement
• Prefer a conservative, physician-directed approach
• Are not seeking aggressive resurfacing
• Value predictable recovery and long-term skin health
Some concerns may be better served by other AGE Technologies™. This is determined during consultation.
