Secret™ RF Microneedling: Precision Rejuvenation, From Within
When your skin begins to show signs of laxity, uneven tone, or texture irregularities, it may be time to go deeper—without resorting to invasive procedures.
At Belle Marin Aesthetic Medicine, Dr. Faye Jamali and her team offer Secret™ RF microneedling. This sophisticated solution fuses radiofrequency (RF) energy with microneedle technology to activate your skin’s own regenerative response from the inside out.
Designed for refinement and renewal, this treatment restores firmness, clarity, and vibrancy by stimulating collagen and elastin exactly where it’s needed—beneath the surface.
What is Secret RF Microneedling?
Secret RF is ideal for those in the early to moderate stages of aging, or for anyone seeking visible skin improvement without disrupting their schedule. This elegant, layered approach provides both superficial refinement and structural support, making it an excellent option for the face, neck, and jawline.
What Secret RF can improve:
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Acne scars and residual texture
- Crepey or thinning skin
- Mild jowling along the chin or jawline
- Uneven pigmentation or skin tone
- Enlarged pores and rough texture
How Secret RF Works
Secret RF pairs microneedling with targeted radiofrequency energy to work beneath the skin’s surface. During treatment, tiny needles create precise channels while RF energy penetrates the deeper layers, triggering a natural healing response.
This process encourages the renewal of collagen and elastin, helping the skin appear firmer, smoother, and more even over time.
Because radiofrequency energy reaches deeper tissue than microneedling alone, the treatment can address mild laxity and structural changes in the skin while still allowing for a quick return to daily activities.
Good Candidates for Secret RF Microneedling
Secret RF microneedling is well-suited for individuals who want to improve skin firmness, tone, and texture without surgery or an extended recovery.
Many people seek this treatment when they begin noticing signs of aging, like fine lines, enlarged pores, mild skin laxity, or acne scarring. It can also benefit those looking to refresh dull or uneven skin. Because the treatment can be adjusted for different skin types and concerns, it is often appropriate for a wide range of patients.
A personalized evaluation helps determine whether this treatment aligns with your skin goals.
Areas of the Body Secret RF Can Treat
While Secret RF is frequently used on the face, it can also address skin concerns in several other areas:
- Neck
- Jawline
- Décolletage
- Abdomen
- Knees
- Arms
Your Treatment Experience
Each treatment is tailored to your unique needs, skin type, and comfort. After applying a topical numbing agent, we’ll use the Secret RF device to gently pass over the target area. Sessions typically last 40 to 60 minutes, depending on the zones being addressed.
Treatment highlights:
- Minimal redness and swelling, typically resolving within hours
- No social downtime—resume normal activities immediately
- Safe for a wide range of skin tones and types
- Effective for delicate areas like the lower face and neck
Treatment Plan & Results Timeline
Best results are seen after a series of 3 to 4 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Because Secret RF stimulates long-term collagen growth, improvements appear gradually and continue to develop over several months.
To maintain your glow, we recommend seasonal or annual maintenance, tailored to your skin’s evolving needs and overall aesthetic goals.

FAQs
Most patients find Secret RF microneedling very tolerable because a topical numbing cream minimizes discomfort.
During treatment, you may feel mild pressure, warmth, or a light prickling sensation as the microneedles and radiofrequency energy work beneath the skin. The experience varies slightly depending on the targeted area and the depth settings used.
Afterward, the skin may feel warm or slightly sensitive, comparable to a mild sunburn, but this typically fades within a few hours. Your provider can adjust the treatment settings and comfort measures to keep the experience as comfortable as possible.
Yes, Secret RF microneedling is often incorporated into a broader aesthetic treatment plan.
Many patients combine it with treatments that address different aspects of skin health, such as injectables for facial lines or laser therapies that target pigmentation.
The timing of combined services is important, so your provider will recommend an appropriate schedule based on your skin condition and goals. A customized approach allows multiple concerns to be addressed while giving the skin adequate time to recover.
Preparing your skin properly can help you get the most from your Secret RF treatment. In the days leading up to your appointment, it's generally recommended to avoid excessive sun exposure and discontinue the use of products that may irritate the skin, such as retinoids, strong exfoliants, or certain active ingredients. If you are prone to cold sores or have any active skin conditions, inform your provider beforehand so they can adjust your treatment plan if needed.
