Fractional RF Needling: Revitalise and Renew Your Skin
Fractional Radio Frequency (RF) Needling is an advanced skin treatment that combines the benefits of radiofrequency energy and microneedling to trigger a powerful, natural healing response in your skin.
This innovative treatment targets a range of skin concerns including fine lines, wrinkles, loose skin, acne scarring, stretch marks, and enlarged pores.
By creating microscopic wounds in the skin, Fractional RF Needling stimulates collagen production and skin tightening, resulting in improved skin texture and a rejuvenated appearance.
The Power of Fractional RF Needling
Boost your collagen and elastin production for healthier, firmer skin. Fractional RF Needling works wonders to even out skin texture and visibly reduce scarring, leaving you with a smoother, more youthful looking complexion.
How It Works
Fractional RF blends the effects of radio frequency technology with skin needling using a specialised tip.
Microneedling creates tiny, controlled perforations or ‘micro-channels’ in the skin, stimulating the skin’s natural healing response and encouraging new collagen and elastin growth.
The radio frequency energy is delivered into the skin once the tiny needles are fully inserted via a dermal stamping method. This technique allows the RF energy to reach deeper layers of the skin.
This dual action targets the skin at multiple levels, stimulating Collagen Induction Therapy that leads to rejuvenated, tighter skin. It can improve the appearance of sun damage and remove dead skin cells.
Why Opt for HIFU?
HIFU is a leading treatment for sagging skin because it targets the dermis at the SMAS level (superficial musculoaponeurotic system). Treatment at this level is responsible for the most significant lifting and tightening effects. Another benefit is that HIFU is suitable for all skin types and involves minimal downtime. Post-treatment, you may experience slight redness, swelling, and rarely, bruising.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How is RF Microneedling Different from Other RF Treatments?
Most other RF treatments deliver energy to the surface of the skin. In contrast, RF microneedling delivers RF energy below the skin surface, enhancing collagen production and skin cell regeneration for deeper, more effective results.
Who is a Good Candidate for RF Microneedling?
Good candidates for RF microneedling should be in good health, exhibit signs of skin aging, and have realistic expectations. This treatment can address all skin types and colours, including tanned skin. However, individuals with active cold sores, skin infections, skin diseases like psoriasis, undergoing chemo or radiation, taking anticoagulant medications, pregnant, or having a history of poor scarring or wounding, are not suitable candidates.
Does the RF Microneedling Procedure Hurt?
The microneedling device uses ultrafine, sterile needles that puncture the skin causing minimal damage. To ensure your comfort, Face and Body Adelaide applies a topical numbing cream to the areas to be treated 30-45 minutes before your procedure.
What Are the Risks?
Possible side effects include peeling, itching, acne flare-ups, and cold sore outbreaks. However, these risks are generally minimal and temporary.
Is There Any Downtime?
Post-procedure, you can expect some inflammation, swelling, and redness similar to a sunburn lasting for 24-48 hours. Minor pinpoint bleeding and bruising may also occur. It’s crucial to follow aftercare instructions, including wearing sunscreen and avoiding sun exposure. Refrain from applying makeup for 24 hours post-treatment.
How Many Sessions Are Needed?
The number of treatments required depends on your skin’s condition and the specific concerns being addressed. Face and Body Adelaide will recommend a personalised treatment plan, typically involving 3 to 4 sessions for optimal results. Touch-up treatments can help maintain these results over time.
