Radiofrequency Microneedling (INFINI & Secret RF)

Radiofrequency microneedling is one of the most effective non-ablative treatments for acne scarring, and The Clifford Clinic operates two complementary platforms — INFINI and Secret RF — that the physician selects based on the patient's scar pattern, skin type, and treatment history.

INFINI uses insulated microneedles that deliver fractional radiofrequency energy concentrated near the needle tip, focusing the thermal effect deep in the dermis (up to 5.0mm) while minimising energy release at the epidermal surface. This profile makes it the preferred choice for treating deep box scars and rolling scars, and it carries a lower risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation than surface-active devices, making it well-suited to darker…

Secret RF uses non-insulated microneedles, which release energy along a greater portion of the needle length, producing a broader column of heated tissue that is particularly effective for shallow, wide rolling scars and for patients with acne-prone skin. The broader energy distribution also creates stronger textural improvement across the overall skin surface. The clinic notes that some patients benefit from alternating INFINI and Secret RF across…
