Secret RF Microneedling

Collagen Stimulation Meets Advanced Radiofrequency

At The Skin Doctors Clinic, we offer Secret RF, a TGA-approved medical-grade radiofrequency (RF) microneedling device from South Korea.

This innovative system combines precision microneedling with controlled RF energy to remodel collagen and rejuvenate the skin from within.

Secret RF provides a non-surgical, customisable approach to improving skin tone, texture, and firmness — with minimal downtime.

Each procedure is performed by qualified clinicians in a medical setting to ensure safety, precision, and comfort.

What Is Secret RF?

Secret RF is an advanced fractional microneedling platform that delivers RF energy through ultra-fine, gold-plated needles into the dermis.

This energy gently heats the deeper skin layers while preserving the surface, stimulating collagen and elastin production for smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.

By combining mechanical micro-injury with focused thermal energy, Secret RF promotes both surface rejuvenationand deep dermal remodelling, producing gradual, natural-looking improvements.

Adjustable Depth for Precision Treatment

The Secret RF system features adjustable needle penetration depths from 0.5 mm to 3.5 mm, allowing treatment to be tailored for different skin concerns and areas.

How the Adjustable Depth Works

Customisation: The depth is programmed into the device and can be adjusted in small increments (e.g. 0.1 mm) for precision.
Targeted Delivery: Controlled RF energy can be delivered at specific layers of the skin, ensuring each session addresses the client’s unique goals and skin characteristics.

Treatment Depth Examples

Superficial (0.5–1.0 mm): Surface rejuvenation and pore refinement.
Moderate (1.0–1.5 mm): Fine lines, texture irregularities, and early ageing.
Deep (2.0–3.0 mm): Tightening, lifting, and treatment of deeper wrinkles or scarring.

Factors Influencing Depth Selection

Skin Concern: Deeper settings activate collagen remodelling in lower dermal layers.
Treatment Area: Different depths suit varying skin thickness on the face, neck, or body.
Skin Type: For darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick IV–VI), insulated tips and depths > 1.5 mm are often chosen to limit surface heat and minimise post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).

This flexibility enables highly individualised treatments that are both effective and safe.

Technology Highlights

Secret RF offers multiple tip configurations for different concerns:

10-Pin Linear Tip – For localised scarring, including post-surgical scars.
24-Pin Tips (Insulated & Non-Insulated) – For facial rejuvenation and fine lines.
- Insulated: Focuses energy deeper in the dermis, reducing surface heat — often preferred for darker skin types.
- Non-Insulated: Emits energy along the full needle length, ideal for lighter skin or full-depth stimulation.
64-Pin Insulated Tip – Designed for larger areas such as the neck, décolletage, or body.

Treatment Areas

Secret RF can treat:

Face – to refine pores, smooth fine lines, and even out texture
Neck & Décolletage – to enhance tone and elasticity
Perioral & Periorbital Areas – for delicate wrinkle-prone regions
Body Areas – such as the abdomen, arms, or scars requiring collagen stimulation

Treatment Benefits

Secret RF may assist with:

Stimulating collagen and elastin for firmer skin
Improving acne or surgical scars
Refining texture and tone
Supporting skin tightening and rejuvenation

This non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment provides gradual improvements with limited downtime.

The Treatment Experience

Before Your Treatment

A medical-grade topical anaesthetic is applied to maximise comfort.

For clients seeking additional comfort, nerve blocks may be administered by the doctor to further minimise sensation.

Your clinician will select the most appropriate tip, energy level, and needle depth for your skin type and treatment area.

During Treatment

The handpiece gently stamps the skin while RF energy is delivered beneath the surface.

You may feel a controlled warmth or mild prickling.

Treatment time is typically around 60 minutes, depending on area and settings.

After Treatment

Mild redness, warmth, or sensitivity can occur for 24–48 hours.

To support comfort and recovery, iced hydrogel masks are commonly applied immediately post-treatment to gently cool the skin, reduce redness, and enhance hydration.

LED light therapy or an algae-based soothing mask may also be recommended.

Avoid active skincare (such as retinols or acids) for several days, and apply SPF 50+ daily to protect the skin.

Treatment Schedule

The standard protocol involves three monthly sessions to progressively stimulate collagen remodelling.

Maintenance treatments are typically recommended every 3–6 months, depending on the area treated and individual goals.

Your clinician will tailor a program to your skin condition and desired results.
