Secret RF

How it works

Secret RF is a microneedle fractional radiofrequency device associated with ILOODA and sold through Cutera in certain markets. Thin needles release radiofrequency energy under the skin surface in a grid-like pattern, leaving untreated skin between points. This is meant to stimulate repair and remodeling in the dermis. Details on needle options and settings are determined by the practitioner and device configuration.

Good to know

• Pinpoint redness or small scabs are possible, depending on depth and energy.
• A numbing step is typical, which adds waiting time before treatment.
• Skin often looks and feels rough or tight for a few days.
• Plans often include repeat sessions spaced several weeks apart.

What a Secret RF session means for your travel days

The key is planning for visible skin changes for a few days. If you have a wedding, a dinner, or portrait plans, treat after those, not before.

Because repeat sessions are often spaced weeks apart, a single trip may only cover a first session. Ask the doctor whether that has value on its own or whether continuing at home is preferable.
