Microneedling Fractional RF
About This Treatment
Microneedling Fractional RF combines the collagen-stimulating benefits of microneedling with the skin-tightening power of radiofrequency energy for dramatically enhanced results. Ultra-fine needles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin while simultaneously delivering RF energy deep into the dermis, triggering an intense wound-healing response that produces new collagen and elastin. This dual-action approach is highly effective for treating acne scars, stretch marks, wrinkles, and skin laxity. Results continue to improve for up to six months as new collagen matures and remodels.
Benefits
- Superior collagen stimulation compared to standard microneedling
- Tightens and firms sagging or lax skin

Frequently Asked Questions
What is microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) and how does it work?
Microneedling Fractional RF combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy for superior skin rejuvenation results. Ultra-fine needles create controlled micro-channels in the skin while simultaneously delivering RF energy deep into the dermis, triggering an intense collagen and elastin production response. This dual-action approach at our Coquitlam, BC clinic is far more effective than standard microneedling alone for treating acne scars, wrinkles, stretch marks, and skin laxity.
How many microneedling RF sessions do I need for best results?
Most clients at our Coquitlam clinic achieve optimal results with a series of three to four microneedling RF sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. Results continue to improve for up to six months after your final session as new collagen matures and remodels the skin. During your consultation, our team will assess your concerns and recommend a treatment plan tailored to your specific skin goals.
Is microneedling RF painful and what is the downtime?
A topical numbing cream is applied before the microneedling RF procedure to minimize discomfort. Most clients describe the sensation as a mild prickling with warmth from the radiofrequency energy. After treatment, you can expect redness and mild swelling for one to three days, similar to a sunburn. Our Coquitlam, BC clinic provides detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.
What skin concerns does microneedling RF treat?
Microneedling Fractional RF is highly effective for a wide range of skin concerns including acne scars, surgical scars, stretch marks, fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, skin laxity, and uneven skin texture. The combination of microneedling and radiofrequency energy at our Coquitlam clinic provides deeper collagen stimulation and skin tightening than either treatment alone, delivering visible improvement in skin firmness and smoothness.
How does microneedling RF compare to regular microneedling?
While standard microneedling relies solely on the wound-healing response from micro-injuries, microneedling RF adds the power of radiofrequency energy delivered directly into the dermis for significantly enhanced collagen production and skin tightening. The RF energy heats the deeper tissue layers, producing a firming effect that standard microneedling cannot achieve. At our Coquitlam, BC clinic, microneedling RF delivers faster, more dramatic results for scarring, wrinkles, and skin laxity.
