RF Microneedling

Radio Frequency Microneedling

We are proud to be one of the only clinics in the area to offer advanced radiofrequency microneedling. This technology offers many benefits and significantly enhanced results compared to standard microneedling.

Focus Dual offers RF microneedling with HIFU, an advanced new treatment for achieving skin tightening, lifting, firming and contouring. Focus Dual uses a combination of radiofrequency and microneedling technology to create a controlled trauma which triggers the body’s healing response of collagen and elastin production. Both technologies used in this treatment stimulate collagen in different ways. Microneedling creates micro-traumas in the skin, thereby stimulating the healing response, while radiofrequency uses heat to tighten the skin from the inside out. With Focus Dual you receive two treatments in one, meaning that you will achieve a stronger treatment and more effective results than when compared to having microneedling and radiofrequency treatments individually. The result is firmer, tighter, smoother, more lifted and hydrated skin.

How does Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling work?

During this microneedling treatment ultrafine needles penetrate the skin to different depths whilst simultaneously releasing radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the skin in a controlled manner, stimulating a wound healing response leading to the production of new collagen and elastin.
Our patients love how natural their skin looks and the results get better and better over time. Read more about the advantages of RF microneedling over standard microneeding in our blog post here.

Can Radiofrequency Microneedling (RFM) be used on patients of all ages?

Yes, younger skin that doesn’t yet require lifting and tightening can benefit from Microneedling without the RF, where the focus is now more on refining pores, evening out texture and improving overall quality.
Older patients with laxity concerns benefit from the dual effect of the Microneedling with Radiofrequency. As the Focus Dual offers many different needle depths and intensity settings for RF, treatments can be easily customised for every different skin and level of concern.

How many sessions will I need?

Results can be seen after just one session. However, a minimum of 2 and up to 6 treatments, at 4-week intervals, deliver the best results, depending on the skin concern.

What results should I expect?

Most patients see an improvement 2 to 3 weeks after the first microneedling treatment. Results are natural and get better over time, peaking at 12 weeks following the final treatment.

Will there be downtime?

There is virtually no downtime. A slight swelling and redness are present immediately post-treatment and should subside quickly.
