Radiofrequency microneedling combines two technologies in one treatment. Fine needles create controlled micro-channels in your skin, and radiofrequency energy delivered through those channels heats the deeper layers, stimulating new collagen and elastin. Kirei Clinic delivers this treatment using Morpheus8 and Secret Pro, from our Leeds city centre clinic.
What Does Radiofrequency Microneedling Treat?
Radiofrequency microneedling suits early to moderate skin laxity, enlarged pores, acne scarring and fine lines, particularly on the face, jawline and neck. Because the treatment works at multiple depths, radiofrequency microneedling addresses surface texture and deeper structural support in the same session. For a fuller picture of your options, read our Acne Scarring page or our Sagging Skin and Jowls page, where a treatment working at a different depth suits many patients better.
Why Kirei Clinic?
Dr Mei, Dr Rosie and Louise all carry out radiofrequency microneedling at Kirei Clinic, using Morpheus8 and Secret Pro, alongside HIFU, CO2 laser, picosecond laser and IPL. Who treats you on the day depends on booking availability. Your treatment sits within the full-face assessment approach Kirei Clinic applies to every patient, so your plan reflects your whole face and your goals, not one area treated in isolation.
FAQs
What does radiofrequency microneedling treat?
Skin laxity, texture, enlarged pores, acne scarring and fine lines, particularly around the face, jawline and neck.
How is radiofrequency microneedling different from regular microneedling?
Standard microneedling creates micro-channels to stimulate collagen. Radiofrequency microneedling adds radiofrequency energy through those channels, reaching deeper into your skin for a stronger effect on laxity and structure.
Does radiofrequency microneedling hurt?
Your practitioner applies a topical numbing cream before treatment. Most patients describe mild discomfort rather than significant pain.
How much downtime does radiofrequency microneedling need?
Most patients see redness for a day or two. Some notice mild swelling or pinpoint marking, which settles quickly.
How many radiofrequency microneedling sessions do I need?
Most patients need a short course, spaced several weeks apart, for the best result. Your practitioner confirms your plan at consultation, based on your skin and your goals.
When will I see results from radiofrequency microneedling?
Some improvement in texture shows soon after treatment. Results continue to build over the following months as your collagen production increases.
What’s the difference between Morpheus8 and Secret Pro?
Both deliver radiofrequency energy through microneedles to stimulate collagen at depth. Your practitioner selects the device suited to your skin and your goals at consultation.
Who is radiofrequency microneedling not suitable for?
Some patients are not suitable, including those with a pacemaker or certain metal implants in the treatment area. Your practitioner screens for this at consultation.
