RF Microneedling
Price range: £220.00 through £1,250.00
RF Microneedling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that combines the benefits of microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen production, tighten the skin, and improve overall skin quality. This minimally invasive procedure helps reduce fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, and skin laxity while promoting a smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking complexion.
Treatment Recommendations
RF Microneedling is an advanced collagen induction treatment that combines precision microneedling with controlled radiofrequency (RF) energy to rejuvenate the skin from within. During the procedure, ultra-fine insulated needles create controlled micro-channels in the skin while delivering RF energy into the deeper dermal layers. This dual-action approach stimulates collagen and elastin production, remodels existing collagen fibres, and tightens underlying tissue without damaging the surrounding skin. RF Microneedling is ideal for treating fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, mild to moderate skin laxity, stretch marks, and overall loss of skin firmness. As new collagen develops over time, the skin becomes smoother, firmer, more refined, and noticeably rejuvenated. The treatment is suitable for the face, neck, and selected body areas where skin tightening and texture improvement are desired.
Prerequisites
A consultation with a qualified practitioner is recommended before undergoing RF Microneedling to assess your skin concerns and determine your suitability for treatment. Please inform your practitioner of any medical conditions, pregnancy, breastfeeding, pacemakers or implanted electronic medical devices, bleeding disorders, autoimmune conditions, active skin infections, recent cosmetic procedures, or medications that may affect healing. Avoid excessive sun exposure, retinoids, chemical exfoliants, and other potentially irritating skincare products for several days before your appointment. The treatment should not be performed on areas with active acne infections, open wounds, or significant inflammation until the skin has fully healed.
Additional Information
An RF Microneedling session typically takes 45–75 minutes, depending on the treatment area and your personalised treatment plan. A topical numbing cream is usually applied beforehand to maximise comfort during the procedure. Mild redness, swelling, and a sunburn-like sensation are common immediately after treatment and generally resolve within 24–72 hours. Initial improvements in skin texture and radiance may be visible within a few weeks, while collagen remodelling continues for several months, leading to firmer skin, improved elasticity, softened scars, refined pores, and reduced fine lines. For optimal and long-lasting results, your practitioner may recommend a personalised course of treatments along with a professional skincare routine, daily broad-spectrum SPF protection, and healthy lifestyle habits to maintain smooth, youthful, and healthy-looking skin.

Make the most of your appointment
Before your appointment
RF Microneedling is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment, so proper skin assessment and preparation before the treatment are important. A consultation with a qualified practitioner is recommended to assess your skin concerns, treatment area, and suitability. Your practitioner will create a personalised treatment plan based on your individual skin goals.
Several days prior to treatment:
- Avoid excessive sun exposure and protect your skin with broad-spectrum SPF.
- Avoid retinoids and potentially irritating skincare products.
- Reduce the use of chemical exfoliants and other active skincare ingredients.
- Inform your practitioner about any medications or medical conditions that may affect healing.
- Avoid treatment over areas with active acne infections, open wounds or significant inflammation.
- Inform your practitioner if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- Inform your practitioner if you have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic medical device.
- Discuss any previous cosmetic procedures performed in the treatment area.
Your practitioner will advise you when to stop or restart specific skincare products according to your individual treatment plan.
Days 1–3
Mild redness, swelling and a sunburn-like sensation are common immediately after RF Microneedling and generally settle within 24–72 hours.
- Keep the treated area clean and follow your practitioner’s aftercare instructions.
- Avoid touching, rubbing or irritating the treated skin unnecessarily.
- Avoid harsh skincare products until your practitioner advises that they can be reintroduced.
- Protect your skin from direct sun exposure.
- Apply broad-spectrum SPF as recommended by your practitioner.
- Avoid activities or products that may unnecessarily irritate the treated area during the initial recovery period.
Following days
As the skin settles, you may gradually notice improvements in skin texture and radiance.
- Continue following your personalised skincare routine.
- Maintain consistent daily SPF protection.
- Avoid introducing strong active ingredients until advised by your practitioner.
- Allow the skin’s natural healing and collagen-remodelling process to continue.
From the following weeks onwards
Initial improvements may become visible within a few weeks, while collagen remodelling continues progressively over several months.
Continue your recommended professional skincare routine and maintain good sun protection to support your results.
For optimum results, we recommend following your practitioner’s personalised treatment plan and aftercare instructions consistently. RF Microneedling works through gradual collagen and elastin stimulation, so improvements continue to develop over time rather than appearing immediately.
Top tip:
Daily broad-spectrum SPF protection and a consistent professional skincare routine can help support healthy-looking skin and maintain the improvements achieved through your RF Microneedling treatment.
Your practitioner may also recommend a personalised course of treatments depending on your skin concerns and desired outcome.
ABOUT RF Microneedling
RF Microneedling combines the benefits of traditional microneedling with controlled radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen production and improve overall skin quality.
During the treatment, ultra-fine insulated needles create controlled micro-channels in the skin while delivering RF energy into the deeper dermal layers. This dual-action approach encourages collagen and elastin production, helps remodel existing collagen fibres and supports skin tightening without intentionally damaging the surrounding skin.
RF Microneedling can be used to address concerns including fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, mild to moderate skin laxity, stretch marks and loss of skin firmness.
As collagen develops over time, the skin can appear smoother, firmer, more refined and rejuvenated. The treatment can be performed on the face, neck and selected body areas, depending on the individual’s treatment goals.
Benefits of RF Microneedling
Stimulates collagen production
The combination of microneedling and RF energy encourages collagen and elastin production to support firmer and more youthful-looking skin.
Improves skin texture
RF Microneedling can help refine uneven texture and promote a smoother-looking complexion.
Helps reduce acne scars
The treatment can improve the appearance of acne scarring by encouraging collagen remodelling within the skin.
Refines enlarged pores
By improving overall skin quality and encouraging collagen production, RF Microneedling can help create a more refined appearance.
How It Works
Your practitioner will assess your skin concerns, treatment area and suitability for RF Microneedling before creating a personalised treatment plan.
The treatment area is prepared and a topical numbing cream is usually applied beforehand to maximise comfort during the procedure.
Ultra-fine insulated needles create controlled micro-channels in the skin while delivering controlled RF energy into the deeper dermal layers.
Following treatment, the skin begins its natural healing and collagen-remodelling process. Improvements in texture, firmness, elasticity and overall skin quality develop progressively over the following weeks and months.
