What is Micro-Needling RF (MNRF) Treatment?
Micro-needling RF combines two proven techniques. Ultra-fine needles create micro-channels in the skin, and at the needle tips radiofrequency energy heats the deeper layer of the skin (dermis) to stimulate collagen and elastin.
Because the energy is delivered below the surface, MNRF can treat deeper scars and skin laxity with less surface damage than ablative lasers, which makes recovery quicker.
Needle depth and energy are adjusted for each area and scar type. MNRF is often combined with PRP, subcision or CO2 laser for the best scar results.

Benefits of Micro-Needling RF
Treats deeper scars

How the Treatment Works
Assessment
Dr. Tarunveer examines your scars or skin laxity and decides needle depth, energy and the number of sessions.
Numbing
A numbing cream is applied for about 45 minutes before treatment.
MNRF treatment
The handpiece is pressed onto the skin in a grid pattern; you feel brief pricking and warmth. Sterile, single-use tips are used.
Soothing & after-care
A calming product and sunscreen are applied, and you receive written after-care instructions.
Results & Number of Sessions
Skin looks smoother and tighter within a few weeks, and collagen remodelling continues for about three months after each session.
A course of 3–4 sessions usually gives a clear improvement in scars and pores. Deep or extensive scarring may need additional sessions or combination treatments.
Aftercare
- Redness and mild swelling settle in 2–3 days
- Avoid makeup for 24 hours
- Use a gentle cleanser, moisturiser and sunscreen
- Avoid scrubs, retinoids and acids for 5–7 days
- Avoid swimming, saunas and heavy exercise for 48 hours
Is Micro-Needling RF (MNRF) Treatment Safe?
MNRF is a safe, well-tolerated treatment. Redness, mild swelling and tiny grid marks for a few days are common. Temporary pigmentation or breakouts can occasionally occur and are managed with after-care. Sterile, single-use needle tips are used for every patient.
Please tell the doctor before treatment if you have:
- Pregnancy
- A pacemaker or metal implants in the treatment area
