Microneedling has been a proven method in aesthetic medicine for years to improve skin structure, reduce wrinkles and treat scars. However, with the introduction of Secret RF, this technique has reached a new dimension. Here we compare the two approaches and explain why Secret RF is considered a further development of classic microneedling.
How does classic microneedling work?
In classic microneedling, fine needles penetrate the skin to create micro-injuries. These stimulate the skin's natural healing process, leading to the formation of new collagen and elastin. The method is effective for regenerating the skin, but it mainly works on the upper layers of the skin (epidermis and dermis).
What is the difference between Secret RF and classic microneedling?
The Secret RF combines microneedling with radio frequency (RF) technology. While the needles work in a similar way to classic microneedling, they also deliver targeted radio frequency energy directly into the deeper layers of the skin. This dual effect makes it possible to stimulate collagen production even more intensively and tighten the skin structure on a deeper level.
What are the advantages of the Secret RF?
-
Targeted deep effect:
With Secret RF, the depth of penetration of the needles can be individually adjusted so that the treatment is tailored to specific skin problems. This is particularly helpful for deep scars or wrinkles. -
Additional tightening through heat:
The radio frequency energy generates heat in the deeper layers of the skin, which increases collagen production and tightens the skin structure. Classic microneedling alone cannot achieve this. -
Fewer sessions needed:
Thanks to the combined technology, the Secret RF often shows faster and more lasting results, requiring fewer sessions. -
Diverse areas of application:
While classic microneedling is mainly suitable for the surface of the skin, Secret RF can treat deeper problems such as stretch marks, acne scars or sagging skin. -
Minimal downtime:
Since the radio frequency simultaneously promotes healing, redness or swelling after treatment is usually less and subsides more quickly.
Is classic microneedling still relevant?
Despite the benefits of Secret RF, classic microneedling still has its place, especially for less severe skin problems or for patients looking for a simple and less expensive treatment. For superficial applications, such as refining pores or reducing fine lines, classic microneedling is a proven option.
For whom is the Secret RF the better choice?
The Secret RF is particularly suitable for patients who:
- Want to treat deep wrinkles or scars,
- Want to achieve an additional tightening effect,
- Looking for sustainable results with minimal downtime,
- Want to benefit from the latest technology in aesthetic medicine.
Conclusion
The choice between classic microneedling and Secret RF depends on individual skin needs. While classic microneedling remains a tried and tested method for minor skin problems, Secret RF offers a deeper, faster and more versatile solution thanks to its innovative combination of microneedling and radio frequency.
For aesthetic practices and patients who value advanced and effective treatments, the Secret RF is an investment in the future of skin care.
