RF therapy and microneedling – the perfect power couple!
Radiofrequency microneedling is the ‘power couple’ of skin treatments using a combination of radiofrequency technology and ultra-fine microneedles. The tiny needles cause micro-injuries to your skin, stimulating its natural healing response to produce new collagen-rich tissue. Radiofrequency therapy (RF) is a non-surgical method of tightening your skin using energy heat waves to target the deeper dermis and epidermis layers of your skin. Again, this stimulates the production of collagen, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles and making your skin firmer and tighter. It is also extremely effective at reducing enlarged pores and acne scarring.
Radiofrequency microneedling for fine lines and wrinkles
Microneedling and radiofrequency are both proven technologies to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improving your skin tone and texture to give you a smoother, tighter and more radiant complexion. It is fantastic for targeting fine lines and wrinkles around your eye areas and your forehead.

Radiofrequency microneedling for acne treatment
If you’ve been looking for an effective acne treatment in Basingstoke, then look no further. RF microneedling is not only great for rejuvenating aging skin, but also for targeting both acne scarring and active acne.
RF microneedling reduces the appearance of acne scars by stimulating collagen production, restoring elastin and thickening the dermis layer. It helps to erase the skin’s natural memory of acne scars and can be used to treat a wide range of scarring including atrophic (sunken pitted scars), boxcar scars, rolling scars and ice pick scars.
It can also target the seb glands and oil glands, resulting in a reduction of sebum formation to target active acne lesions.
How long do RF microneedling results last?
Results can usually be seen immediately after just one single treatment and will continue to develop over the following 3 – 6 months. The majority of clients can expect results to last between 1 – 2 years, dependent on your skin. For optimum results, we recommend a course of treatments to target your areas of concern. We then suggest having a touch-up session once a year to maintain your desired results.
An effective and affordable natural alternative to surgery
In comparison to other more aggressive treatments, such as dermabrasion and chemical peels, RF microneedling is minimally invasive and the effects last longer than Botox injections.
Prices start from just £200 per area, and as mentioned above results can be seen immediately after just one session. However, we recommend a minimum of 2 and up to 6 treatments, at 4-week intervals to deliver the best results, depending on your skin concerns.
