RF microneedling in Sydney
Are you planning to undergo RF microneedling in Sydney to treat an initial level of skin laxity, scarring, and skin texture? Cosmetic Wellness offers RF microneedling consultations at its Sydney clinics. RF microneedling combines fine needles with controlled radiofrequency energy. Fine needles create tiny channels, delivering radiofrequency energy to heat underlying tissue. It stimulates collagen production and skin remodelling.
At Cosmetic Wellness, specialists use two devices: Morpheus8 and Secret RF Duo. The two treatments target different concerns. Morpheus8 reaches deeper, making it well suited to contouring and skin laxity. Secret RF Duo adds a fractional laser and suits surface texture and pores. We assess your skin first and then recommend the one that fits, at our Drummoyne or Wolli Creek clinic.
How does RF microneedling work?
Standard microneedling works mainly on the upper layers of the skin. Adding radiofrequency changes what the treatment can do. Needles deliver heat deep into the skin, triggering tissue contraction and months of collagen and elastin remodelling.
Depth and energy can be adjusted for different areas of the face and body.
What does RF microneedling in Sydney treat?
Clients ask us about RF microneedling in Sydney for one or more of these concerns:
- Uneven skin texture and enlarged pores
- Acne scarring

It can be used on the face, jawline, neck and body.
Our RF microneedling treatments
Morpheus8Morpheus8 delivers radiofrequency energy through gold-plated needles, at depths chosen to suit each area. It treats heaviness in the lower face or a soft jawline, acne scarring and, on the body, for stretch marks and cellulite. Appointments are available for the full face including the eye area, the eye area on its own, the face with the neck and décolletage, and the body.
Secret RF DuoSecret RF Duo combines RF microneedling with a 1540 nm Erbium Glass non-ablative fractional laser. It uses both insulated and non-insulated needles, which gives us more control over how the energy is delivered. We choose it for crepey skin, enlarged pores and fine surface lines. Suitability depends on your skin type, medical history and the settings selected by your practitioner.

- First, numbing cream is applied to the skin
- Warmth and a mild prickling sensation can be felt
- As the treatment progresses, your clinician will check on your comfort level

Mild redness, swelling and warmth are normal after treatment. They settle down within 1-3 days.
Aftercare
You need to follow a few aftercare instructions for the safety of your skin, such as
- For the first 2 days after treatment, avoid strenuous exercise and hot showers
- Avoid using makeup for 2 days after treatment
- Avoid taking vitamin C, retinoids, and AHAs for 5–7 days
