MNRF Treatment, Micro Needling Radio Frequency
MNRF treatment, also known as microneedling radio frequency, is an innovative cosmetic procedure that combines the benefits of two powerful treatments. By utilizing tiny needles to create microchannels in the skin, MNRF treatment stimulates collagen production and triggers the body’s natural healing response.
MNRF delivers additional radio frequency energy into these micro-channels, which further enhances collagen synthesis and tightens the skin. This dual-action approach of microneedling and radio frequency ensures comprehensive rejuvenation, reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars while promoting a smoother, more youthful complexion. MNRF treatment has quickly become a popular choice for those seeking a non-invasive solution to achieve radiant and firm skin.

What is microneedling radiofrequency?
Microneedling radiofrequency (MNRF) is a new-age cosmetic procedure which is a minimally invasive technique to rejuvenate skin with less downtime. It is a combination of tiny microneedles with radiofrequency waves to heat the deeper layers of your skin to stimulate collagen from within, improve the appearance of Acne scars, and fine lines, open pores and give a more rejuvenated look overall.
The entire procedure causes minimal damage to the upper layers of skin; therefore, it involves marginal downtime and is safe for all skin types.
How MNRF Works?
Radio-frequency is a high frequency alternating electric current. When an electric current flows through the body, the body offers resistance to its flow. This resistance of tissue is known as impedance. Joule’s law states that when electric current meets resistance, heat is generated due to the micro-oscillations of charged particles.
When the temperature of tissues rises to about 60 degrees, tissues get coagulated. RF effect is electro-thermal. Depth of penetration of RF is inversely proportional to the frequency of RF.
What are the conditions that can be treated with microneedling Radiofrequency (MNRF)?
It is a wonderful technology that can treat multiple conditions such as Acne scars, Traumatic scars, loose sagging skin, cellutite, fine lines, open pores and stretch marks effectively in a safe manner.
Why Microneedling Radiofrequency?
Post-acne scarring is a very distressing problem. Atrophic acne scars are dermal depressions commonly caused by destruction of collagen after inflammatory acne. Many therapeutic measures such as chemical peeling, subcision, dermabrasion, fillers and punch techniques have been performed to improve acne scarring but with sub-optimal outcomes.
Ablative lasers such as Er : YAG lasers or CO2 lasers produce significant improvement at the cost of long recovery times and post-inflammatory hyper-pigmentation.
Recently, newer techniques such as Micro-needling fractional radio-frequency (MNRF) has been shown to be clinically efficient in managing acne scars without causing direct damage to the epidermis with minimal down time and most importantly it is safe in darker skin types.
