RF & Microneedling
RF microneedling delivers radiofrequency energy directly into the dermis through insulated microneedles, remodelling collagen at depth while leaving the epidermis largely intact. Because the energy is radiofrequency rather than light, it treats every skin type equally. The platforms below cover that modality in a full four-handpiece system and a portable three-handpiece console, alongside two other routes to skin tightening: multi-dimensional RF across face and body with no downtime, and controlled plasma energy for the delicate facial areas an ablative laser is too aggressive for. They are bought by med spas, dermatology and cosmetic clinics, and practices adding a tightening service without committing a laser room to it. Every platform is quoted in writing — specification sheet, lead time, freight and total landed cost — with clearance documentation supplied with the quote. Suitability depends on patient presentation, skin type and your scope of practice, and we walk through indications with you before quoting.
Regulatory clearance is granted per device model, not per company. Every platform's status is stated on its own page and confirmed in writing before purchase. See how clearance works.

Four handpieces, needle depth adjustable 0.5–3mm on screen.
The same modality in a portable three-handpiece console.
Multi-dimensional RF for tightening and contouring, no downtime.
Controlled plasma energy for the areas a laser can't safely reach.

Because the energy is radiofrequency rather than light, RF microneedling treats every skin type equally. Radiofrequency is delivered directly into the dermis through insulated microneedles, remodelling collagen at depth while leaving the epidermis largely intact. Suitability for any individual patient still depends on presentation, skin type and your scope of practice, and we walk through indications with you before quoting.
The full system offers 0.5–3mm screen-adjustable depth across four handpieces — fractional RF, microneedle RF, cooling head and return electrode. The portable console offers three fixed depths of 0.5mm, 1.0mm and 1.5mm, a 36-needle array and three handpieces, and is built for smaller treatment rooms, satellite locations, or a practice adding the modality without committing floor space.
Plasma energy creates precise micro-treatment zones at the surface and drives a thermal signal beneath it, triggering the body's own repair response and new collagen and elastin over the following weeks. The Plasma Pro handpiece is built for control rather than coverage, which makes it the tool of choice around delicate facial areas — eyelids, fine perioral lines, localised scarring — where an ablative laser is too aggressive and a needle is too slow. Downtime is measured in days rather than weeks.
