Advanced Secret RF Microneedling Treatment in London

What Is Secret RF Microneedling?

Secret RF is a multi-layered treatment that combines radiofrequency with microneedling to target the deeper layers of the skin where the treatment is most beneficial. Unlike traditional techniques, Secret RF uses microneedles to deliver fractional radio frequency energy directly into the dermis triggering a powerful healing response.
‍
This new microneedling treatment that improves signs of ageing, acne scars, and sun damage is highly customisable. Whether treating the face and neck or body, it can be tailored to each individual's skin type and concern.
‍
Secret RF microneedling treatment is ideal for:

• Fine lines & wrinkles
• Skin laxity
• Acne scars & large pores
• Uneven texture & tone
• Sun damage & stretch marks

Using Secret RF technology, we can achieve superior results faster, deeper, and more safely than ever before—especially for patients who need a tailored treatment plan across various skin depths.

What Can Secret RF Treatment Improve?

Secret RF delivers RF energy below the surface to address a wide range of concerns. The treatment is ideal for improving:

Ageing skin

Smooths fine lines and tightens sagging areas.

Acne scarring

Breaks down fibrotic tissue and rebuilds structure.

Pigmentation and dullness

Enhances tone, texture, and glow.

Enlarged pores and roughness

Refines skin’s surface.

Laxity on the face and body

Promotes firmer, lifted skin.

Because RF uses microneedles to deliver energy deep within the skin, Secret RF provides long-lasting rejuvenation without damage to the outer layer. It’s suitable for all skin types and tones, including darker complexions.

Before and After Secret RF Microneedling

See the transformation for yourself. These real patient results show the visible improvements in skin texture, tightness, and tone after completing their Secret RF procedure. Many patients see an improvement after the second treatment, with optimal results appearing a few months after the last treatment.

How Does Secret RF Work?

The secret behind Secret RF lies in its unique combination of radiofrequency energy with microneedling. The Secret RF device, developed by Cutera, delivers radio frequency energy through microneedles to deliver fractional radio energy to the deeper layers where treatment is most beneficial.

Here’s how it works:

• Microneedles penetrate the dermis, creating micro-injuries that stimulate healing.
• RF energy heats the tissue, triggering collagen and elastin synthesis.
• This multi-layered treatment is tailored to target your specific depth and concern.
• Unlike other treatments, Secret RF does not damage the skin’s surface, making it a safer and more tolerable option for skin of colour.

This bespoke treatment offers powerful results with minimal discomfort and downtime. Secret RF delivers measurable skin tightening and rejuvenation from within.

Treatment Overview: What to Expect

Every Secret RF treatment begins with a tailored treatment plan designed to match your skin goals.

Prior to Treatment

We apply numbing cream to the treatment area to increase comfort during the treatment.

Treatment session

 The Secret RF procedure lasts 30–45 minutes depending on the treatment area. The treatment is safe, and patients typically describe it as tolerable with a warm or tingling sensation.

Post treatment

Expect mild redness or swelling that resolves in 24–48 hours. Makeup can usually be worn the next day.

Treatment frequency

We recommend 3 RF treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart. A second treatment is when most patients start to notice results, with full effects visible months after the last treatment. Maintenance is suggested every 12–18 months to maintain results.
