Fractional RF for Firm, Radiant Skin
Scarlet RF is a next-generation microneedling treatment that combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with ultra-fine needles to rejuvenate your skin from the inside out. This powerful combination stimulates collagen, tightens skin, and reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars—all with minimal downtime.
At L’Elite MediSpa, we use Scarlet RF to deliver dramatic yet natural-looking results across the face, neck, and body. Whether you’re concerned about aging, texture, or skin laxity, this FDA-cleared treatment offers a safe and effective solution for smoother, firmer, more radiant skin.

How It Works
Scarlet RF uses microneedles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin while delivering radiofrequency energy deep into the dermis. This dual-action process stimulates collagen and elastin production, improving skin structure and texture. The treatment is performed in-office using a numbing cream for comfort, and sessions typically take 30–60 minutes.
-
What It Treats
Scarlet RF effectively treats fine lines, wrinkles, loose skin, enlarged pores, acne scars, redness (rosacea), stretch marks, and uneven skin tone or texture. It can be used on the face, neck, chest, and body—making it one of the most versatile skin rejuvenation treatments available.

Benefits
Clients love the lifted, smoother appearance achieved with little to no downtime. Scarlet RF tightens sagging skin, reduces scarring, and refines texture while stimulating long-term collagen production. With minimal discomfort and lasting results, it’s a go-to treatment for non-surgical facial and body rejuvenation.
-
The Process
We begin with a consultation and apply topical numbing cream or pronox to the treatment area. The Scarlet RF handpiece then delivers microneedling paired with RF energy across the skin. You may feel a mild warmth or prickling sensation. The session lasts 30–60 minutes depending on the area. Aftercare is simple and designed to maximize healing and collagen production.
-
Results & Recovery
Mild redness or sensitivity may occur post-treatment and typically subsides within 24–48 hours. Most clients begin seeing improvements within a week, with continued results over the next 3–6 months as collagen regenerates. A series of 3 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart is usually recommended for optimal results.
-
Preventative
Scarlet RF can be used as a preventative anti-aging treatment to maintain skin elasticity and stimulate collagen before deeper lines or laxity develop. Regular maintenance sessions help preserve firmness, clarity, and glow over time.

Scarlet RF for Acne Scars and Texture
Scarlet RF is especially effective for minimizing acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven texture. The combination of microneedling and RF breaks down scar tissue and stimulates new collagen, leaving skin smoother and more even-toned.
If you’ve struggled with past breakouts or stubborn scarring, Scarlet RF can help restore a confident, clear complexion—without harsh resurfacing or extended downtime.

Your Questions, Expertly Answered
Whether you’re targeting wrinkles, scars, or sagging skin, Scarlet RF is a powerful, non-surgical option to revitalize and renew. Still have questions? We’ve answered the most common ones to help you feel fully confident before your appointment.
Scarlet RF combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy. While microneedling alone stimulates collagen through controlled injury, Scarlet RF enhances that effect by delivering heat deep into the skin layers—tightening tissue and amplifying results. This dual-action treatment achieves smoother, firmer skin with more dramatic improvements in texture, elasticity, and tone than microneedling alone.
Scarlet RF can be used on the face, neck, chest, abdomen, arms, thighs, and more. It’s commonly used to treat sagging jawlines, under-eye wrinkles, crepey skin, and acne scars. It’s also effective for stretch marks and skin tightening on the body. Your provider will evaluate your goals and create a custom plan to target specific concerns.
A topical numbing cream or pronox is applied before treatment to minimize discomfort. Most clients describe the sensation as mild warmth or light pressure. The RF heat is well controlled and balanced with real-time feedback to avoid any damage or overheating. After the session, you may experience redness similar to a light sunburn, but this fades quickly.
Most clients need a series of 3 treatments spaced about 4–6 weeks apart. You’ll likely notice an initial glow and tightening within a week, with deeper improvements in skin texture and firmness developing over the next several months. Results continue to improve for up to 6 months as collagen production increases.
Yes—Scarlet RF is FDA-cleared and safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types. Its technology avoids overheating or triggering pigmentation issues, making it an excellent choice for clients with darker skin or sensitive conditions like rosacea. As always, we’ll conduct a thorough consultation to ensure it’s appropriate for your skin and goals.
