Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling
Skin tightening&rejuvenation – restoring the youthful appearance of your skin
Are you looking to treat wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars and facial lines for flawless, rejuvenated skin?
Radiofrequency (RF) Microneedling is a minimally-invasive breakthrough treatment that delivers radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis layer of skin and stimulates the body's natural healing process to enhance collagen and elastin production for a younger, firmer and more youthful appearance
Through the creation of numerous microchannels, RF energy is delivered deep into the skin to heat the skin, thereby stimulating collagen production and encouraging tissue tightening.In addition to collagen production, tissue tightening also reduces wrinkles, fine lines, and acne scars, leading to an appearance of younger looking, rejuvenated skin.
RF Microneedling
RF Microneedling is a minimally invasive fractional bipolar electronic system that combines revolutionary RF technology with the latest Microneedling technology for significant skin rejuvenation and tightening effects.The system uses RF energy to tighten the skin with micro-needles in a minimally-invasive manner. The procedure is accomplished without surgery and there is little to no downtime.
In the course of treatment, heat is delivered deep into your skin to increase collagen and promote elastin regeneration. In order to achieve more youthful, thicker and firmer skin, the procedure targets skin imperfections and creates micro-injuries to release growth factors and activate collagen production.
Traditional Microneedling vs RF Microneedling
With conventional Microneedling, small puncture wounds are made in the skin to trigger the body's natural healing process. This in turn increases collagen and elastin production, which tightens the skin and reduces acne scars and fine lines.
Radiofrequency Microneedlingcombines tiny needles with radiofrequency energy (heat) for dramatic and fast results. The RF energy penetrates deep into the dermis layer of the skin. In the process of raising the temperature of the skin, radio frequency energy causes constriction, tightening, and stimulation of collagen and elastin production that helps reduce acne scarring and premature aging signs.
Who can receive this treatment?
All skin types and tones can benefit from RF Microneedling, a minimally invasive treatment that can address the following concerns:
- Fine lines and facial wrinkles
- Irregular skin texture and tone
- Enlarged pores
- Acne scarring
- Body skin laxity – stomachs/inner arms/knees
- Stretch Marks
- Surgical scars
- Mild to moderate skin laxity
How many treatments are needed?
The number of treatments needed depends on the nature of the patient's skin concerns and his or her response to the treatment. Full results can be achieved after 2-4 treatment sessions on average, with sessions every 4 to 6 weeks.
Is RF Microneedling painful and how long does it take?
Prior to starting the procedure, a topical anaesthetic is applied to ensure patient comfort. Some people may feel a prickling sensation and heat during the treatment but the procedure is generally painless. Treatment time varies based on the size of the treated area.
Are there any side effects?
Most patients experience mild redness or minor swelling for a day or two following the treatment. The recovery time for deep chemical peels and laser treatments is much longer. You can apply makeup after 24 hours.
How long is the downtime following the treatment?
Most patients have no downtime after RF Microneedling. They can return to their normal routine within a day. Any residual redness can be covered with makeup within 24 hours.If required, we combine this treatment with dermal fillers to achieve the intended results with no downtime. Please contact us to schedule a consultation so we can provide you with an estimate of your specific downtime.
What is the expected duration of the results?
After the second or third treatment, patients typically see complete results, although the longevity of results depends on the patient's natural aging process. Most patients achieve full results after their second or third treatment, although results can take between 1 and 6 months to become noticeable.

Threading
There is no doubt that threading has been used for centuries as a means of removing unwanted facial hair and body hair. This ancient art originated in South Asia and the Middle East. Threading has been a part of numerous cultures and traditions for centuries.
Threading, for example, was commonly practiced in Persia as a sign of womanhood. It was introduced to Western countries in recent decades as a cosmetic application for the removal and shaping of eyebrows.
Australia has seen a surge in popularity of Eyebrow Threading, Facial Threading, and Body Threading (Epilation). Threading services can now be found offered in shopping mall aisles and hairdressers.
Threading is primarily used for shaping and enhancing eyebrows, but it can also be used to eliminate unwanted hair on the jaw, cheeks, upper lip, neck, under arms, stomach, and fingers and toes.
The male grooming category is also experiencing a growth in threading, with gents threading their eyebrows and their (beard) hair lines into a neat finish.
So what is threading?
The threading technique consists of looping cotton thread whose end is directed by the therapist's hand and its other end is placed between the therapist's teeth to give it tension.
Despite appearing less glamorous or high-tech than electrolysis or laser hair removal, threading remains one of the safest, quickest, most thorough and accurate methods of hair removal currently available.
Eyebrow threading is particularly quick and easy, making it a great lunch-break appointment or even an after work touch up.
In comparison to eyebrow waxing, eyebrow threading provides a more precise and accurate shape. Unlike waxing, which uses chemicals on the skin, eyebrow threading is 100% natural - all it requires is thread and a trained practitioner.
