Microneedling with radiofrequency delivered at depth. Tightening and deep collagen remodelling that needles alone cannot reach.
Virtue RF combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy delivered from insulated needle tips at a set depth in the dermis.
The needles create the channels; the RF adds controlled heat exactly where collagen lives. Heat is what contracts existing collagen and drives longer-term remodelling, which is why RF tightens where standard microneedling only smooths.
It is the stronger option for jowls, neck laxity and deep or rolling acne scars — and the one to choose when SkinPen has helped but not enough.
Existing collagen loosens with age and scarring tethers the skin from below.
Insulated tips place radiofrequency energy precisely in the dermis, sparing the surface.
Heat contracts collagen immediately and drives new collagen formation over months.
Step 01
Free. We confirm RF is the right step rather than standard microneedling or laser.
Step 02
Topical numbing for around forty-five minutes — this treatment needs it.
Step 03
Thirty to forty minutes. You will feel heat and pressure with each pass.
Step 04
Redness and mild swelling for two to four days. Results build across six months.
The radiofrequency. Needles alone create a healing response; RF adds controlled heat at depth, which contracts collagen and drives far more remodelling. It tightens where SkinPen mainly smooths.
Yes, noticeably — which is why we numb for longer. You will feel heat with each pass. Most patients find it very manageable, but it is not a lunchtime treatment.
Three, spaced six to eight weeks apart, for most concerns. Results keep improving for around six months after the last one.
Yes. Radiofrequency energy is not absorbed by melanin, so it carries less pigment risk than laser — one of the main reasons we reach for it.
No. It improves early laxity and skin quality meaningfully. If there is significant sagging, we will say so rather than sell you three sessions that will not deliver.
One patient at a time, by appointment. No packages, no pressure, and an honest answer even when it isn’t the one that books.
