Fractional Radiofrequency — Axcel RFM100

Robotic microneedling with fractional radiofrequency: two powerful techniques in a single procedure, for intense collagen and elastin stimulation — no incisions and with fast recovery.

How it works

Fractional radiofrequency with microneedling combines two techniques in a single procedure: the controlled mechanical micro-injury from the microneedles and the delivery of thermal energy directly into the dermis. The result is intense stimulation of collagen and elastin that remodels the skin from the inside out.

Our device, the Axcel RFM100, performs microneedling robotically and precisely, with exact depth control — reaching up to 3.5 mm. As the needles fire, they emit fractional radiofrequency directly into the dermis, creating thermal microzones that leave the surrounding skin intact — which speeds recovery and makes the procedure safer, more predictable and more comfortable. Three tips are available, chosen according to the region: more precision for delicate areas of the face or greater coverage for extensive body areas.

Protocol and results

The session is performed with a topical anesthetic to ensure comfort — most patients report only a sensation of warmth and small "pinches" during the pulses. The duration varies according to the treated area, generally between 30 and 60 minutes.

Within the first few weeks it is already possible to notice an improvement in skin texture and radiance. The most significant results appear progressively, between 30 and 90 days after each session, as new collagen is produced. Generally 1 to 3 sessions are recommended, at monthly intervals — the exact number depends on the degree of sagging and the goal defined during the assessment consultation.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about Fractional Radiofrequency — Axcel RFM100

What is fractional radiofrequency with microneedling?
It is a procedure that combines microneedling with the emission of fractional radiofrequency into the deeper layers of the skin. The microneedles create microzones of stimulation in the dermis and, at the same time, release controlled thermal energy, activating the natural production of collagen and elastin. The result is progressive remodeling, with improvement in texture, tone and contour.
How does the Axcel RFM100's robotic microneedling work?
The Axcel RFM100 performs microneedling robotically, with precise depth control — reaching up to 3.5 mm — creating thermal microzones that keep the surrounding skin intact, which speeds recovery and makes the procedure safer and more comfortable.
What cases is fractional radiofrequency recommended for?
The main indications are: skin sagging on the face, neck and body; facial and body rejuvenation; expression lines and fine wrinkles; enlarged pores; acne scars; stretch marks; cellulite (gynoid lipodystrophy) and fibrosis; and intimate rejuvenation.
Does the procedure hurt? What is the session like?
The session is performed with a topical anesthetic to ensure comfort. Most patients report only a sensation of warmth and small "pinches" during the pulses, making the stimulation even and comfortable.
What is the recovery time?
The recovery time is short: mild redness and a sensation of warmth in the first 24 to 48 hours are common, similar to sun exposure. Your routine can be resumed within a few days, with simple care such as sun protection and hydration.
Is it safe for all skin types?
Yes. By delivering the energy directly into the dermis, with less damage to the surface, microneedling fractional radiofrequency is safe for different skin phototypes and ages. Every treatment is preceded by an individual assessment consultation to personalize the protocol.
