3. SECRET RF (Fractionated Radiofrequency Microneedling)
Secret RF is a treatment that uses radiofrequency energy delivered beneath the surface of the skin. It is sometimes considered for concerns such as lines, texture changes, or scarring. The treatment works by applying controlled radiofrequency energy into selected layers of the skin, with settings adjusted to suit the area being treated.
The level of energy and approach can be tailored depending on the concern, and this will be discussed with you during the consultation. Following treatment, temporary redness, tingling, or swelling in the treated areas (such as the under-eye or upper lip) may occur. These effects settle over time, though recovery can vary between individuals. In some cases, bruising may also occur, particularly in delicate areas.
After the session, recovery time can vary from person to person. Sometimes, more than one session may be considered, with spacing between treatments to allow the skin to respond. The number of sessions suitable for you will depend on factors such as your skin type, the area being treated, and your individual concerns.
5. Exion RF Microneedling (Perioral / Upper-Lip & Under-Eye Areas)
Exion RF Microneedling is an AI-guided monopolar radiofrequency device that may be considered for delicate areas such as the upper-lip (perioral) region and the under-eye zone.
By combining controlled microneedling with RF energy, Exion targets selected layers of the skin to support collagen, elastin and hyaluronic-acid production.
It may be discussed during consultation for concerns such as fine lines, early laxity and texture changes around the mouth and eyes.
Temporary redness or mild swelling can occur and typically settles within hours to a few days. Suitability, settings, and number of sessions are determined individually during consultation.
6. Exion “Emface EYES” (Non-Invasive Option)
Exion also offers a specialised non-invasive “Emface EYES” mode that combines RF and targeted ultrasound to treat the delicate under-eye skin without needles.
This option may be discussed for people who prefer a non-invasive approach to support under-eye skin quality, firmness and hydration.
Downtime is generally minimal, with most patients resuming normal activities the same day.
7. Fotona SmoothEye (Erbium 2940nm Non-Ablative Smooth mode)
The Fotona Dynamis Erbium laser can operate in both ablative and non-ablative modes. In its SmoothEye setting, the laser delivers energy in a non-ablative way to the skin around the eye area. This mode gently warms the superficial layers of the skin, which may be discussed in relation to changes in texture and firmness.
A series of sessions is usually planned, often spaced several weeks apart, with the total number depending on individual factors and treatment goals. Each session typically takes about 20–30 minutes. Temporary redness or swelling can occur after treatment, and recovery experiences vary.
SmoothEye may be considered as a standalone option or as part of a broader plan that can include other approaches such as Erbium resurfacing or radiofrequency-based treatments.
