Fractional RF is a modern skin treatment that aims to address various skin concerns, especially aging signs. The procedure uses the micro-needling technique that penetrates the top skin layer to about 3-3.5mm in depth, focusing the dermal layers. On reaching the dermal layers, it spreads the radiofrequency heat on the skin tissues. As a result, it enhances collagen production and makes the skin smoother and tighter.
