Skin Tightening, Lifting & Strengthening
During the procedure, a device with a set of tiny needles is used to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin’s surface. These needles also deliver radio frequency energy to deeper layers of the skin, promoting collagen production to tighten skin.
Radio frequency skin tightening heats up the skin tissue, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential components of healthy skin. The micro needling part of the procedure further encourages the production of collagen by creating micro channels that stimulate the body’s natural healing response.
This treatment is highly recommended for saggy skin, if your in need of a neck lift (turkey neck), to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and it can also improve the texture and tone of the skin, and reduce the appearance of scars and stretch marks.

WRINKLES & FINE LINES
Fine lines are a natural effect of repeated facial expressions, sun exposure and a decrease of the skin’s elasticity. As you advance in age, these fine lines can turn into deep creases and wrinkles. A timely treatment for fine lines can reverse and postpone facial ageing for years to come.
SAGGING SKIN
A lack of collagen due to ageing, or over-stretched skin from weight-loss or childbirth can leave your skin saggy with a reduction in skin strength. Reduce and delay these effects and regain that firm, tight and sag-free skin again with our highly qualified skin experts.
COMPLEXION & TEXTURE
Skin complexion and texture plays a huge role in defining the appearance of healthy skin. There are many treatments available to improve the complexion and texture of skin by smoothing skin and clearing acne, reducing scarring, pigmentation, pore size and brightening the skin.
SCAR REPAIR
Scars don’t have to be permanent marks on your skin, especially on your face. Our professional scar repair treatments physically breakdown and reduce old scar tissue as well as stimulating the production of new collagen tissue to replace it or firm and plump the skin’s creases to improve texture.
STRETCH MARKS
About half of the population will develop stretch marks at some point in their lives. They affect both men and women at various ages. The good news is that they can be treated at any age, but treatments are more effective the newer the marks, so don’t hesitate. Book your free consultation today.
LARGE PORES
Untreated, excessive sebaceous production can lead to unpleasant conditions such as acne, scars or unaesthetic black spots. Our medical grade pore treatments refine your routine beauty ritual, getting your skin in shape for professional make-up, or simply cleaning it in-depth so it radiates with health.
ACTIVE ACNE
Acne can be an extremely problematic condition to treat, severe acne commonly requires a combination of products and treatments over a long period of time, and the specific treatment program must be tailored to the individual.

Non-surgical facelift
A common result of skin ageing is that it presents multiple problems, from the superficial skin layers down to in depth skin trauma, from sagging to pigmentation. We use RF Needling to stimulate the skin’s natural healing process and generate new skin cells. As a result, the skin’s texture is improved, skin layers are repaired in-depth and tissues are lifted and strengthened.
RF Needling results
RF Needling is different from other skin tightening treatments because it simultaneously treats the skin’s surface as well as the deeper layers of the skin. The results appear within just a few days. Thus, it addresses concerns such as skin sagging, enlarged pores, stretch marks, scars and acne scars, improvement of skin tone and elasticity, wrinkle reduction, reduced hyperpigmentation and reduction of nasolabial folds (lines from your nose to your mouth).
A guided experience
RF Needling requires a series of treatments for longer lasting results. When you book a RF Needling skin tightening treatment, one of our skin experts will assist you before, during, and after the procedure to ensure the best results are achieved. The number of treatments you need depends on your particular skin features. We recommend you take advantage of our free 1:1 initial consultation with one of our skin specialists to determine the best approach in rejuvenating your skin.
Treatment Care
The treatment is non-invasive and recovery is immediate. You may experience slight swelling of the treated area for 1-3 hours post-treatment, but it will not affect your daily activities. To ensure you look and feel great after treatment, we offer a complimentary makeup session and can also recommend skin care products that enhance and prolong the results of RF Needling. We do this to ensure you have a pleasant experience at our clinic and are satisfied with the results.
RF Needling FAQ's
RF Needling is a revolutionary treatment for skin tightening and rejuvenation, utilising a combination of radio frequency and percutaneous needling to induce collagen production and tighten elastin fibres. It also helps with textured scarring, pore refinement and skin rejuvenation.
Radio frequency needling uses micro needles to deliver radio frequency energy (heat) directly into various depths in the skin causing a controlled wound response. This creates a chain reaction in the skin to create new collagen fibres which helps to reduce pitted acne scarring and age concerns.
The procedure involves 6 or more treatments over the course of 2-4 week intervals, depending on the skin type/concern.
Treatments can last 10-45 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
The results will show reduction in textured scarring, improvement in pore size and firmer skin in treated areas. Results can take 1-6 months to be noticeable however most people see a change after their 2nd or 3rd treatment.
The length of results will vary person to person. As we age, naturally our skin loses laxity so with this loss of laxity, the appearance of scarring and pore size can (but not always) start to become slightly visible again.
Yes, maintenance treatments are suggested every 6-12 months to ensure the longevity of results from the treatment plan.
RF Needling also pairs MicroNeedling with radiofrequency energy, which is very effective at stimulating collagen at various layers of the skin for more anti-ageing benefits.
By having growth factor injections combined with RF needling, you will experience better and faster results. The growth factors is working on strengthening your skin structure whilst the RF needling is working to heat and contract the elastin fibres to improve texture. Results will last much longer as the skin will be strong and youthful.
The RF needling works at the same depths than what your typical “resurfacing” lasers can go, without any downtime. Prior to having RF needling technology, the only options available for scarring and pore refinement were laser treatments that had 3-7 days’ downtime, which would require 6-8 weeks in between treatments. The other benefit of RF needling is the ability to adjust the depth of the needle tips throughout the treatment, it is important to focus deep & superficially to maximise results.
Skin must be prepped on a pigment inhibiting product 2-4 weeks prior to starting. Sun protection must be worn at all times, even if not in direct sun exposure
You may have some redness for about 24 hours after treatment. Some of the treated areas might have a little bit of minor swelling, which also normally resolves the next day.
Any area on the body can be treated. Surgical scars, acne scars, enlarged pores.
Anybody who is prone to keloid scarring or on certain medications cannot be treated.
From $400-$650 depending on the size of the area treated ($360-$585 in a package)
