Secret RF Treatment Overview
What Is Secret Radiofrequency Microneedling?
This treatment is based upon a Microneedling Fractional Radiofrequency (RF) System which uses bi-polar radio frequencies alongside minimally invasive micro-needles to facilitate effective non-surgical facelift treatments.
Microneedling involves the use of a device with fine needles that create tiny, controlled punctures in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing response, promoting the production of collagen and elastin, which are essential for skin firmness and elasticity.
Radiofrequency (RF) energy is a type of electromagnetic energy that generates heat when applied to the skin. The heat generated by RF technology causes immediate contraction of collagen fibres and stimulates long-term collagen remodelling.
Therefore with RF microneedling you get a super-charged and doubled effect.
What Are The Benefits Of This Treatment?
At Wimpole Aesthetics, we are proud to provide a comfortable yet effective microneedling treatment from our central London clinic. Using this advanced anti-ageing technology, we can help you achieve a radiant and refreshed complexion.

- Reduces pore size, acne scars & stretch marks
- Safe & ideal for all different skin types – both men & women
Are The Microneedling RF Target Areas?
The combination of microneedling and RF allows for the delivery of radiofrequency energy directly into the deeper layers of the skin through the microchannels created by the needles. Targeting:
- The treatment of scars
- Anti-ageing and wrinkle reduction
- Uneven skin tones and textures
- Stretch marks
- Acne scarring
- Photo and sun damage
- Enlarged pores
How The Procedure Works
The Secret RF treatment uses ultrafine needles to gently penetrate your skin at differing depths, delivering RF (radio frequency) energy into the mid-level dermis where your collagen is located. This kickstarts your body’s natural healing process, whilst also stimulating collagen and elastin production, resulting in healthier, youthful skin that is firmer and tighter.
The system of delivering RF energy is precisely controlled to prevent the risk of burning the tissue. Through RF, any skin that has been damaged by the ageing process or acne scarring is restored and remodelled. Stretch marks can also be improved by this same mechanism.
Secret RF is perfect for treating all skin types and carries a very low risk of skin burns. Microneedling can be used on both the face and the body, leaving patients and practitioners relieved by the minimal downtime and pain typically experienced.
What Happens After The Procedure?
Directly after the procedure, you may experience temporary redness that quickly goes away, and the skin might feel slightly rough for a few days. The results are long-lasting, yet considering a maintenance treatment every 12–18 months could be beneficial.
The full results are expected to become clear within 3–6 months post-treatment.
What’s The Cost Of The Treatment?
The cost of Secret RF will vary according to the size of the area which needs to be treated and the number of sessions required.

What can Secret RF treat?
Secret RF is designed for facial treatments such as non-surgical facelifts, and skin tightening, alongside wrinkle and pore reduction. It can also help heal or reduce the appearance of acne scarring, age spots, discolouration, uneven skin textures and photodamage. The treatment can also be used on the rest of your body to treat scars, stretch marks, and Keratosis Pilaris.
How does Secret RF differ from traditional microneedling?
Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, employs a handheld roller device covered with ultrafine needles. Our advanced device glides over the skin, causing micro-injuries that stimulate the body’s natural healing response. It can be combined with PRP, mesotherapy or cosmeceutical products for optimal results.
Secret RF adds radiofrequency energy to increase collagen and elastin production, creating a faster and more dramatic result for an overall youthful appearance.
Are there any side effects to Secret RF?
Secret RF is perfect for treating all skin types and carries a very low risk of skin burns, with most patients experiencing minimal downtime.
Does Secret RF hurt?
Secret RF delivers precisely controlled RF energy to target areas through minimally invasive micro-needles. This controlled precision and depth minimise both pain and downtime in comparison with fractional laser treatment.
How much does Secret RF cost?
The cost of Secret RF will vary according to the size of the area which needs to be treated and the number of sessions required. Please discuss this during your consultation with Dr Berkowitz.
What our patients say
Natalie and Dr Josh have been incredible in boosting my confidence and my skin! They truly listen and deliver 100% natural results every time. Natalie is completely honest, professional, has integrity and that’s why I trust her fully. Wimpole clinic have a much greater range of cutting edge treatments beyond anti wrinkle treatment that have resulted in my skin improving with age. It’s mad but true. They always assess what is right for my face and my skin on the day and advise according to what my skin needs. I’ve been going to Wimpole Aesthetics for years now, initially drawn to their incredible IV boosts but am now unable to ever turn back. Class, quality and aesthetic results that are truly worth it!!!
Dr Josh is a caring and knowledgeable doctor, his consultation is very detailed, he answered all the questions that I am concerned. Dr Natalie did the filler and skin booster, she takes care of me a lot, even after the treatment she still cares about me, I booked the review after two weeks, highly recommended! Btw, they have a Chinese speaking staff so don’t worry if you are not familiar with medical terminology!
An unpretentious practice. Approachable team with honest, friendly advice. Dr Joshua is amazing and I would recommend him to anyone. He doesn’t prioritise making money like other practices- he will tell you honestly whether you need treatment or not. Acting on clients best interests and well being.
Wonderful experience. Dr Natalie is very experienced and honest. Loved my treatments with her. Fantastic results. Highly recommend her and this clinic.
I have suffered adult acne for many years and after trying many options I was recommend I visit Dr Natalie and I’m so grateful I did! I’m currently on roaccutane and have had two facials with her. Such amazing changes in my skin. She has a wonderful bedside manner and has made this whole process wonderful. I sincerely cannot recommend Dr Natalie enough. Also very central clinic so makes before/after work apts very easy! 10/10
Very professional and very friendly environment, with knowledge doctors and Nurses. I would definitely recommend them, went there with my family it was a great experience.
I would highly recommend !!
I have been living with scarring above my upper lip, as a result of electrolysis treatment 25 years ago, in the form of a deep vertical line and small indentations in the skin. I sought help from Wimpole Aesthetics, and from the moment that I entered the small, personal clinic I was totally put at ease and welcomed by the extremely professional and friendly team. I received a course of Mesotherapy and Dermapen treatment and am absolutely delighted with the results. I had almost given up on ever having smooth line-free skin above my upper lip again. I highly recommend letting Wimpole Aesthetics take care of you.
Having lived in Australia for over 10 years, my skin had suffered mild sun-damage and had developed a lot of discolouration on my face in particular. Also, as I approached the age of 40, I noticed a lot of wrinkles appearing! I decided to have Microdermabrasion treatment and the improvements after just 3 treatments were extremely encouraging. I have booked a further 2 treatments in coming months and I am so excited about seeing further benefits to the look and texture of my skin.
