Precision RF Microneedling is a minimally invasive treatment that utilises radiofrequency and microneedling to treat acne, improve eyebags and remove common skin lesions like syringoma and more.
The procedure efficiently administers high-energy treatment in a precise and targeted manner to manage dermal (deeper) conditions and tackle the root causes.
It utilises two types of technologies to deliver results:
Precision RF Microneedling can be used to treat a variety of skin conditions including:
When used for treating acne, Precision RF Microneedling uses a technique called “Selective Sebaceous Gland Destruction.” This method is also found in devices like Agnes RF.
This method specifically targets overactive acne-causing sebaceous glands and destroys them without damaging the surrounding areas and surface of the skin. The selective destruction of sebaceous glands prevents acne recurrence.
Precision RF Microneedling is a reliable option for different kinds of persistent acne and its underlying causes, such as:
By successfully removing the overproducing sebaceous glands, the instances of developing acne is greatly reduced.
Here are other benefits that you can gain from treating acne with Precision RF Microneedling devices (Agnes RF, Sylfirm X, Secret RF):
After treatment, the treatment area may experience the following:
These are expected side effects and should subside within 1-2 weeks under normal circumstances.
As part of our protocol, we may perform an extraction before the actual RF treatment, and post-treatment clearing.
Three to four sessions are recommended to achieve full effects. Improvements in your skin can be observed one month following your initial treatment and will continue over time following the succeeding sessions. Optimum results are noticeable a few months after the treatments.
Syringomas are non-contagious, harmless growths that are usually found in small clusters on the eyelids, but they can also develop in other parts of the body like the armpits, chest, face and genitals.
Syringomas develop mainly because of cell overgrowth in the sweat ducts. They may also multiply due to several factors that cause the sweat glands to overwork resulting in cell overgrowth:
Precision RF Microneedling is a great choice for removing syringomas due to its ability to target deep oil glands, preventing recurrence. Not all microneedling devices are suitable for syringoma – for this condition specifically, you can consider Agnes RF.
How it works:
Here are the other benefits that you can get on top of eyes that appear brighter and younger:
The frequency of Precision RF Microneedling treatments for syringoma removal may differ per person. You can expect to see visible improvements after one session.
Sebaceous hyperplasia is a skin condition associated with bumps on the skin that form due to excess sebum in the sebaceous glands.
Sebaceous hyperplasia occurs the most among babies and aging individuals. They can form in these areas of the body:

Active Acne | $500 to $1500 |
Syringoma | $600 to $3000 |

Yes, Precision RF Microneedling can be safely combined with other aesthetic treatments to get even better results for your skin. Your doctor can provide recommendations for the best treatments that go with Precision RF Microneedling.
Precision RF Microneedling treats a wide range of skin conditions, including acne, blackheads, saggy skin and wrinkles. It is particularly helpful for skin lesions such as syringoma and fine lines and wrinkles around the jowl area.
Precision RF Microneedling is fast, minimally invasive and offers noticeable, lasting results without scars and minimal downtime.
Acne, comedones, blackheads and syringomas: Visible improvements can be seen within a few weeks. Full benefits, including complete tissue remodeling, may take up to 6 months.
Deep wrinkles and eye bags: Initially, the treated area may look worse for 1-2 weeks post-procedure, which is normal. Noticeable benefits emerge over several months as collagen forms and skin remodels. Eye bag treatments take 2-6 months for fat cells to be naturally removed by the body’s macrophages.
Acne, acne scars, syringomas, blackheads: Mild redness for 1-3 days, coverable with makeup. Please note that for acne treatment, there may be some discharge 1-3 days after the procedure. This is a normal part of the healing process, and we will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to ensure optimal recovery.
Deep lines, eye bags: 7-10 days of swelling, redness, and bruising: Some numbness or hypersensitivity may last up to 4 weeks. Ice packs and prescribed medication can help reduce discomfort.
Pre-treatment:
Post-treatment:
One session takes anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your condition.
Small white patches or bumps, known as “collagen balls,” may appear in the treated area often around the eyes or jowls, especially for RF devices like Agnes RF. They can be mistaken for pimples or milia. These bumps may not be aesthetically pleasing but they are a good sign of skin rejuvenation. They are temporary and typically dissipate within a few days. Massaging the area frequently throughout the day can help speed up their resolution.
While you may notice improvements from one session, for most people, two to three sessions may reap more optimum results. For active acne, additional treatments may be needed six weeks to six months after the initial session. Results vary between individuals.
