Secret™ RF Microneedling
Spa Lumina is proud to offer Secret RF, a new microneedling treatment that helps our clients from Orillia, Collingwood, and surrounding areas correct signs of aging skin, fine lines, wrinkles and scars with little to no downtime. Secret RF uses microneedles to deliver fractional radiofrequency (RF) energy into varying levels of the skin including the deeper layers where treatment is most beneficial. This unique delivery of energy allows us to achieve optimal results on all skin types. An easy, safe, and effective procedure, Secret RF microneedling is performed in our Barrie medical spa in a 30- to 45-minute treatment session. To achieve the optimal effect, 3 to 4 Secret RF treatments are recommended. You’ll start to notice results after your second treatment, but optimal results appear 3 months after the last treatment.
What Is Secret?
Secret RF is a novel approach to microneedling that delivers fractional radio frequency (RF) energy to all layers of the skin with minimal damage to the skin’s surface. The combination of micro-injuries and RF energy increase collagen production for skin that looks and feels younger. The multi-layered treatment is tailored to each individual and addresses their unique skin concern during each customized treatment.
What Skin Conditions Does It Treat?
Secret RF microneedling treatments are safe, effective, and suitable for all skin types on the face, neck, chest, and other areas exposed to the sun. These treatments are ideal for clients seeking a simple skin rejuvenation and anti-aging treatment by addressing a variety of concerns, including:
- Sun damage
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Enlarged pores
- Uneven texture
- Acne scars
- Thinning skin
- Stretch marks (striae)
Our Advanced Skin Analysis System
At Spa Lumina, we use OBSERV® 520, an advanced skin imaging system to analyze your skin’s needs. OBSERV 520 uses sophisticated skin illumination technology to analyze diverse facial skin features, including texture, pigmentation, vascularity, wrinkles, volume, and contour. It also features a patented face positioning system, which uses visual feedback technology to help us consistently capture important angles of your face in high definition. A study published in Dermatology Times favorably compared OBSERV 520 to two other skin imaging systems.
Using the detailed images produced by the OBSERV 520 device, our skin experts diagnose specific skin conditions and pinpoint the best comprehensive treatment plan to improve your skin’s appearance and health.

How Does RF Microneedling Work?
Secret RF uses microneedles to deliver radio frequency energy into varying levels of the skin including the deeper layers where treatment is most beneficial. Unlike other devices which only deposit energy in upper layer of the skin, Secret RF delivers RF energy below the surface where it’s needed most to help revitalize and regenerate the tissue. This unique delivery of energy allows us to achieve optimal results with little to no downtime on all skin types.

Enroll NowWhat’s the Difference Between RF Microneedling vs. BOTOX® COSMETIC?
RF microneedling rejuvenates the entire surface of the skin by increasing collagen production below the surface. BOTOX COSMETIC corrects specific lines and wrinkles caused by facial muscle contractions. Many clients interested in skin rejuvenation benefit from both treatment options.
Can Microneedling Be Combined With Other Medical Spa Treatments?
Yes, although treatments may need to be staggered. Many other skin rejuvenation treatments, such as chemical peels, dermaplaning, and LimeLight (IPL), complement the improvements from microneedling. Let us create a treatment plan that is right for you during a free consultation.

Secret RF is a easy, safe and effective procedure that can be performed in 30 – 45 minutes treatment session. During the treatment, you will feel a slight heating and some pressure on the treatment area. For most clients, the treatment is tolerable but your technician will work with you to maximize your comfort level. Prior to the procedure, your provider will apply a numbing cream to the treatment area to increase comfort during the treatment. Clients typically need 3-4 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. Most clients report seeing improvement after the second treatment however results are optimized 3 months after the last treatment.
How Long Do Treatment Results Last?
Results vary based on the individual. To maintain results, maintenance treatments are recommended every 12-18 months.
What Can I Expect After My Treatment?
After the treatment you will be asked to refrain from wearing make up for several hours. Any minor redness or swelling resulting from treatment will subside within 12-24 hours. After the treatment, you can expect to return to normal activities.

Request a BookingFrequently Asked Questions
- How long does it take for collagen to rebuild after microneedling?
-
Collagen production begins within days of your treatment, but visible improvements typically appear within 4 to 6 weeks and continue for several months. A series of RF microneedling treatments often delivers the best results. Your provider will work with you to create a plan that supports your long-term skin rejuvenation goals.
- Is microneedling or injectables like BOTOX or fillers better?
-
They serve different purposes, and many clients benefit from a combination. Microneedling with RF improves skin texture and firmness by stimulating collagen from within. BOTOX smooths dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movement, while dermal fillers restore lost volume. During your consultation, we’ll help you decide whether one treatment or a combination is best suited to your goals.
- Why does my skin look older after microneedling?
-
This is usually a temporary effect. After microneedling, your skin may appear red, dry, or slightly rough as it begins the healing process, sometimes making fine lines look more noticeable in the short term. As collagen rebuilds over the following weeks, the skin becomes smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking.
- Who is not a good candidate for microneedling?
-
Microneedling may not be recommended for individuals with certain skin conditions, such as active acne, eczema, psoriasis, or uncontrolled rosacea. It may also be unsuitable if you are pregnant, have a history of keloid scarring, or are taking certain medications.
- Can you be too old for microneedling?
-
Not at all. There’s no upper age limit for Secret RF. In fact, it can be particularly beneficial for mature skin by helping to restore collagen and improve tone and elasticity. Your provider will evaluate your skin health and goals to determine if it’s the right fit for your age and needs.
- Is microneedling RF worth it?
-
Many clients find radiofrequency microneedling well worth it—especially for improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, minimizing scars, and firming mild skin laxity. Secret RF delivers heat energy into the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production more effectively than microneedling alone.
