Fractional RF microneedling

Skin repairs better than it produces. Fractional RF microneedling is the most controlled way of asking it to repair.

How it works

Skin repairs better than it produces. Fractional RF microneedling is the most controlled way of asking it to repair.

After thirty, the body stops making collagen on its own initiative. It only makes it when asked. A head of very fine micro-needles enters the skin at a depth set to a tenth of a millimetre.

At the tip of each needle a radiofrequency pulse is released, heating the tissue at depth without burning the surface. The result is thousands of microscopic channels to repair. Skin responds exactly as it does to a wound — except the wound is so small it leaves no trace, and the response is new collagen, elastin and a denser dermis.

Who it’s for

For enlarged pores, acne scarring, fine lines around the eyes and a jawline that has started to soften. It works on every skin type and can also be done on the neck, décolleté or hands.

When we won’t do it

Not if you have an active infection in the treatment area, if you’re pregnant, or if you’ve taken isotretinoin in the last six months. We’ll tell you at the consultation.

What it feels like

We apply a numbing cream and wait twenty minutes. After that you’re left with warmth and small pinpricks over the bony areas — forehead, cheekbones, jaw. We tell you what’s coming before each pass, and the intensity can be adjusted at any point during the session.
