Cutera Secret Pro RF

Advanced radiofrequency microneedling to improve skin texture, firmness and overall skin quality

Cutera Secret Pro RF is an advanced skin rejuvenation treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen and elastin deeper within the skin. It is designed to improve concerns such as fine lines, acne scarring, enlarged pores, uneven texture and mild skin laxity, while supporting firmer, smoother and more refined-looking skin over time. Treatment is tailored to your skin and goals, making it a strong option for patients seeking noticeable improvement with relatively little downtime.

Best for
Fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, uneven texture, mild skin laxity and general signs of skin ageing.

Ideal if
You would like a treatment that helps strengthen and refresh the skin from within, with progressive improvement rather than an artificial-looking result.

Treatment areas
Face, neck and selected areas of the body, depending on the concerns being treated.

Skin goals
Smoother texture, firmer skin, smaller-looking pores and a clearer, more even overall complexion.

Next step
Consultation to assess suitability, treatment areas and the number of sessions that may be appropriate for your skin.

Secret Pro RF is used to improve a range of texture and quality concerns within the skin. It may be recommended for fine lines, acne scarring, enlarged pores, stretch marks, sun damage, uneven texture and mild laxity. By delivering radiofrequency energy through fine needles into the deeper layers of the skin, it helps trigger the skin’s repair response and support stronger, more resilient tissue over time.

Cutera Secret Pro RF may be suitable if you are concerned by early skin ageing, rough or uneven texture, post-acne marks, visible pores or a gradual loss of firmness. It is often chosen by patients who want more than traditional microneedling alone, but who still want a treatment with manageable recovery. A consultation is important to assess your skin, medical history and whether this treatment is the right option for your concerns.

Your appointment begins with a consultation and skin assessment. The skin is cleansed and a topical numbing cream is usually applied beforehand to improve comfort. During treatment, very fine needles create controlled microchannels while radiofrequency energy is delivered into the skin at carefully selected depths. This allows the treatment to be adjusted to your skin needs and the area being treated.

Most patients find Secret Pro RF very tolerable. It is commonly described as a warm sensation with light pressure, and numbing cream is typically used beforehand to make treatment more comfortable. Sensitivity can vary depending on the area treated and the intensity of the settings used.

After treatment, the skin may look pink or red and feel warm or slightly sensitive, rather like mild sun exposure. Some patients also notice mild swelling or a temporary roughness in the treated area. These effects are usually short-lived, and the skin gradually settles over the following days while collagen remodelling continues beneath the surface.

Downtime is usually minimal. Mild redness and sensitivity commonly last around 1 to 2 days, and most patients return to normal activities quite quickly. For the first 48 hours, it is generally best to avoid direct sun exposure, excessive heat, saunas and strenuous exercise. You should also follow the aftercare advice provided, including gentle skincare and daily SPF.

Initial improvement may begin to show within a couple of weeks, but results develop gradually as collagen production increases. Best results are often seen over the following 2 to 3 months. A course of 3 to 4 sessions spaced around 4 to 6 weeks apart is commonly recommended, depending on your skin concerns and treatment goals.
