RF Microneedling, also known as radiofrequency microneedling, is an effective treatment for various skin concerns. It stimulates the skin’s natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin production, a process known as collagen induction therapy.
At DERM Lab, we use the advanced Secret PRO device, featuring adjustable needles that penetrate the skin to stimulate collagen production. This process tightens the skin and effectively treats scars, stretch marks, fine lines, and wrinkles.
Our dermatologists recommend a customized treatment plan tailored to your skin’s needs, using adjustable needle depths and intensity levels for optimal results.
Secret RF Microneedling is a versatile treatment, safe for all skin tones, and suitable for both facial and body concerns. It offers enhanced results compared to traditional microneedling by delivering radiofrequency energy as the needles penetrate the skin, leading to better outcomes and faster recovery with minimal downtime.
The Secret PRO device allows precise control over needle depth, targeting various skin layers to stimulate collagen and elastin production, improving texture, firmness, and elasticity.
Whether your goal is to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, uneven texture, skin laxity, scarring, stretch marks, or a combination of these concerns, Secret RF Microneedling at DERM Lab can provide effective results.
Results vary, but many patients notice improvements within a few weeks of their first RF Microneedling session, including smoother skin and a healthy glow.
For the best and most lasting results, a series of 3 sessions is recommended, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Each session enhances collagen production, with the cumulative effect peaking about 3 months after the final treatment, resulting in firmer and more radiant skin.
After completing the initial series, annual maintenance sessions are suggested to sustain collagen production and continue the benefits of collagen induction therapy.
To begin your Secret RF Microneedling journey, a cosmetic consultation is ideal. Here, you can discuss your goals with a dermatologist and learn more about what radiofrequency microneedling can achieve for you.
Secret RF Microneedling is a safe and effective procedure with minimal risks. The Secret RF technology at DERM Lab is designed for precision and safety, ensuring trusted results in skin rejuvenation.
Does microneedling hurt? The discomfort is minimal to moderate, thanks to our use of numbing cream before treatment. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild prick or warmth, which is well tolerated.
Secret RF Microneedling reduces downtime compared to traditional microneedling, with significantly less redness and swelling. Expect 1-4 days of downtime post-treatment, with some redness and swelling, particularly around the eyes or cheeks, which typically subsides within a few days.
We provide comprehensive post-care instructions and home care tips to ensure a quick recovery and optimal results.
To determine the most effective treatments for achieving your skincare goals, schedule a cosmetic consultation with our experienced team. During your consultation, we will assess your skin condition, discuss your desired outcomes, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs.
