RF Microneedling
RF (Radio-Frequency) microneedling is an advanced skin tightening treatment that combines traditional microneedling with radio-frequency energy. This dual-action procedure effectively stimulates collagen production while tightening the skin, resulting in a firmer and more rejuvenated appearance.
Anaesthesia
Topical anaesthesia is generally applied to enhance comfort during the procedure.
Side Effects
Possible temporary redness, swelling, and mild discomfort, which typically resolves quickly.
Treatment Time
Approximately 30-90 minutes, depending on the area treated.
Target Areas
Face, neck, and other areas needing skin tightening.
Downtime
Minimal; most patients can return to normal activities shortly after treatment, although some redness may last a few days.

Frequently Asked Questions
The microneedling device creates micro-injuries in the skin while simultaneously delivering RF energy to the deeper layers. This process promotes collagen and elastin production, enhancing skin texture and elasticity.
Effective for treating fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and skin laxity.
Usually requires a series of treatments for optimal results, often spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
