Real Results
RF microneedling tightens and remodels skin from depth. Drag the slider to compare.
Why RF Microneedling
Standard microneedling creates micro-injuries in the skin that trigger a healing response — producing new collagen as the skin repairs. It's effective, but limited by the depth it can work. Radiofrequency microneedling takes this further by delivering controlled thermal energy deep into the dermis at the precise moment the needles reach their target depth.
The heat causes immediate collagen contraction — producing a visible tightening effect — and triggers a prolonged remodelling response over the following 3–6 months as new collagen fibres form. The result is meaningful improvement in skin firmness, texture and density that compounds over time.
At Skiin, RF microneedling is part of a broader skin quality programme — often combined with regenerative injectables like Profhilo or polynucleotides for comprehensive skin regeneration.
The Result
RF microneedling remodels collagen deep in the dermis. The change reads as firmer and more youthful, not as 'done'.

The Treatment
Day 0
Treatment
Topical anaesthetic for 30–45 minutes, then insulated needles deliver RF energy into the dermis. A 45–60 minute session with warmth and pressure.
Day 1–2
Settle
Redness and mild swelling for 24–48 hours. Mineral SPF is essential for 2 weeks. Most return to normal the next day.
Month 1–3
Sessions build
A course of 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Collagen contracts and remodelling is underway.
Month 3–6
Full result
New collagen matures and tightening peaks. Maintain with 1–2 sessions per year to sustain the result.
Device + Injectable
RF microneedling delivers its best results when combined with regenerative injectables. Explore our full skin rejuvenation programme or our facial aesthetics approach.
FAQs
RF microneedling combines the collagen-induction of traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy delivered precisely into the dermis via insulated needles. The RF energy heats the deeper layers of skin, stimulating significant collagen remodelling and skin tightening beyond what needles alone can achieve.
Skin laxity and mild sagging, enlarged pores, acne scarring and textural irregularity, fine lines and wrinkles, stretch marks and overall skin tightening and firming. It is one of the most versatile device treatments in aesthetic medicine.
Most patients benefit from a course of 3–6 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal results. Maintenance sessions 1–2 times per year thereafter. Your doctor will recommend the appropriate course based on your skin concerns.
Topical anaesthetic is applied 30–45 minutes before treatment. With adequate numbing, most patients experience manageable discomfort — warmth and pressure rather than pain. Treatment takes 45–60 minutes.
RF microneedling at Skiin is priced per session with courses available. Individual sessions typically start from £350; full courses from £900 depending on the device and areas treated. All pricing discussed during consultation.
Redness and mild swelling for 24–48 hours is typical. Most patients return to normal activities the following day with appropriate skincare. A medical-grade SPF is essential for 2 weeks following treatment.
Yes — crepey skin, where texture becomes fine, thin and crinkled (most often on the neck, under the eyes and décolletage), responds well to RF microneedling because it rebuilds dermal density and collagen architecture rather than just hydrating the surface. A course of sessions gradually thickens and tightens the skin, so the crepey texture refines. It's one of the few genuinely effective answers for crepey neck skin, where filler isn't appropriate.
