How It Works
Secret RF delivers radiofrequency energy through tiny microneedles to help rebuild collagen where it is needed most, beneath the skin’s surface. While some treatments can only reach the surface of the skin, Secret RF transports energy deeply in the skin where it can be most effective to stimulate collagen, revitalize and regenerate tissue, and address the common signs of aging. This unique delivery of energy allows us to achieve optimal results on all skin types and can be done anytime of the year.

Secret RF is an easy, safe and effective procedure that can be performed in a one hour treatment session. During the treatment, you will feel some warmth and pressure on the treatment area.

Prior to the procedure, your provider will apply a numbing cream to the treatment area to increase comfort during the treatment.
