Collagen-rebuilding precision for refined pores, firmer skin and renewed texture.
Advanced Aesthetic Treatment
Advanced Skin Renewal with Radio Frequency (RF) Microneedling
Radio Frequency (RF) Microneedling combines controlled microneedling with targeted radiofrequency energy to create thermal stimulation within the deeper layers of the skin. This process triggers collagen remodelling and elastin production, helping to improve skin texture, minimise pores, and address concerns such as fine lines, acne scarring and laxity.
What Is RF Microneedling?
Two proven technologies. One precision treatment.
RF Microneedling is an advanced skin treatment that combines fine, controlled micro-injuries with targeted radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production. The device delivers heat at adjustable depths ranging from 0.5mm to 3.5mm, allowing precise targeting of different layers of the skin — from superficial concerns like fine lines and enlarged pores to deeper dermal remodeling for acne scarring and skin laxity.
How It Works
Micro-injury meets thermal coagulation — at exactly the right depth.
RF Microneedling combines two clinically validated mechanisms in a single pass: ultra-fine, sterile needles create controlled micro-channels that trigger the body's natural wound-healing response — neocollagenesis (new collagen formation) and neoelastinogenesis (new elastin fibre production) while simultaneous radiofrequency energy deposits targeted thermal coagulation zones within the same tissue layer.
What It Treats
Conditions treated by RF Microneedling
Insulated Needle Technology
Fine insulated needles bypass the epidermis and deposit RF energy exclusively at the needle tip within the dermis. This protects the skin surface, reduces post-treatment redness, and makes the treatment safe for all skin types including darker tones.
0.5–3.5mm Precision Depth Range
RF energy is delivered at programmable depths from 0.5mm to 3.5mm, allowing our dermal therapists to target the exact tissue layer most relevant to each concern. Shallow passes address surface fine lines and pore refinement; deeper passes stimulate fibroblasts — the collagen- and elastin-producing cells — for acne scarring, laxity, and structural remodelling.
Dual Mechanism: Physical + Thermal
Micro-channels from the needles trigger the wound-healing cascade; RF thermal zones accelerate and amplify the collagen synthesis response. The combined signal produces measurably superior results compared to either mechanism alone.
Customisable Depth & Intensity
Our dermal therapists tailors needle depth and RF energy levels to each area of your face and your specific skin concerns — deeper passes for acne scarring, lighter settings for periorbital fine lines or sensitive zones.
TGA-Registered Device (ARTG 371470)
The Focus Dual® is registered with Australia's Therapeutic Goods Administration for both safety and clinical efficacy — the regulatory benchmark for therapeutic devices in Australia.
The Benefits
Real outcomes. Lasting change.
Every benefit below is achieved without surgery, general anaesthesia, or recovery time — just advanced technology and expert hands.
Refined Pores & Smoother Texture
Thermal remodelling tightens enlarged pores and resurfaces uneven skin texture — one of the most visible and consistent outcomes of this treatment.
Acne Scar Remodelling
RF Microneedling breaks down fibrous scar tissue and replaces it with organised new collagen — producing meaningful improvement in rolling, boxcar, and shallow ice-pick scars.
Firmer, Tighter Skin
The collagen and elastin produced in the dermis progressively tightens loose or crepey skin on the face, neck, and body areas — delivering a firmer, more youthful structure.
Softened Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Targets the dermal layer where fine lines originate, stimulating the collagen fill that plumps lines from beneath — without injectable products.
Even Skin Tone & Reduced Pigmentation
The controlled healing response helps regulate melanin distribution, improving uneven tone, sun damage patches, and superficial pigmentation over the treatment course.
Minimal Downtime
Most clients experience mild redness and a sunburn-like sensation for 24–48 hours. There is no significant peeling, bruising, or prolonged recovery — most return to normal activities within two days.

Questions
A professional topical numbing cream is applied for 30–45 minutes before treatment, making the procedure well-tolerated for most clients. During treatment, you may feel mild warmth, pressure, or a light prickling sensation in certain areas. Our dermal therapists monitors your comfort throughout and adjusts settings accordingly.
We recommend a course of 2–4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, tailored to your specific skin goals and condition. Some clients with mild concerns respond well to fewer sessions, while those targeting acne scarring or significant laxity benefit from the full course. Our dermal therapists will design a personalised plan based on your individual skin assessment.
Expect 24–72 hours of mild redness and swelling — a normal part of the healing response. Most clients can apply makeup the following day and resume normal activities immediately. Avoid intense exercise, heat exposure (saunas, hot showers), and direct sun for 48 hours post-treatment, and hold active-ingredient skincare (retinoids, AHAs) for 72 hours. Our dermal therapists will provide a full aftercare guide at your appointment.
Some clients notice an initial improvement in skin texture and radiance within the first week after treatment. More significant tightening, smoothing and lifting develop progressively over 4–8 weeks as new collagen remodels. Results from a full treatment course continue to improve over several months as the collagen matures — outcomes are cumulative.
Yes. The insulated needle technology used in the Focus Dual® system deposits RF energy within the dermis — not through the epidermis — which significantly reduces the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. This makes RF Microneedling a safer option for Fitzpatrick skin types III–V compared to many ablative laser treatments. Our dermal therapists will confirm suitability at your consultation.
RF Microneedling works within the dermis (1.5–3mm) to improve texture, pores, scars, and surface firmness. HIFU reaches the deeper SMAS layer (4.5mm) to produce a structural lifting and contouring effect — similar to what a surgeon would achieve. They target different depths and address different concerns, but complement each other beautifully in a combined treatment plan.
Absolutely. RF Microneedling pairs exceptionally well with HIFU (targeting different depths for structural lifting), chemical peels (for enhanced surface correction), LED Light Therapy (for accelerated healing and collagen support post-treatment), or skin boosters for added hydration. Our dermal therapists will design a sequenced plan tailored to your specific skin goals.
Yes. Exomide™ Exosome Therapy can be applied immediately after RF Microneedling as a powerful add-on. The micro-channels created during treatment allow exosomes to penetrate deeper into the skin, where they support cellular repair, amplify collagen and elastin production, and accelerate recovery. This pairing produces a more comprehensive rejuvenation response — with improved texture, hydration, and firmness outcomes compared to RF Microneedling alone.
