Radiofrequency + Microneedling · Advanced

RF microneedling.

Deeper rejuvenation — and a conversation first.

Radiofrequency microneedling combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy to reach deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen while working on firmness and texture. It's the most advanced treatment we offer, and the only one we won't book without seeing your skin first.

Consultation First

This one isn't bookable straight from a menu.

Whether RF microneedling is appropriate depends on your skin, your history and what you're trying to change — and for some people the honest answer is that something simpler will do more. So we start with a $50 skin consultation — credited toward your treatment if you go ahead — assess properly, and only then discuss whether this is the right treatment, what a course would look like, and what it would cost.

What It Targets

Where standard microneedling stops.

The addition of radiofrequency energy — delivered by our Sheerwave Contour 360 — is what distinguishes it. The concerns it's chosen for tend to be structural:

  • Skin laxity
  • Fine lines & wrinkles
  • Acne scarring
  • Uneven texture
  • Loss of firmness
  • Deeper rejuvenation

If firmness isn't your main concern, standard microneedling covers texture and scarring at a known price, and is where most people start.

At the Consultation

What we're actually assessing.

  • what you want to change, and whether this treats it
  • your skin's current condition and sensitivity
  • relevant history, medications and recent treatments
  • whether a gentler or cheaper option would serve you better
  • what a realistic course and timeline would look like

We'd rather tell you it isn't right for you than book it and hope.

Pricing

Determined at consultation.

We don't publish a price for RF microneedling, because the honest one depends on what your skin needs and how many sessions that takes. You'll have the full cost in front of you before anything is booked, and member pricing applies.

The consultation itself is $50, and it's credited toward your treatment if you go ahead. Either way it stands on its own — you leave with a plan.

Common Questions

Why can't I book RF microneedling directly?

Because whether it's right for you depends on your skin, your history and what you're trying to change — and for some people something simpler will do more. The $50 consultation is where we work that out honestly, and the fee is credited toward your treatment if you go ahead.

How old do I need to be for RF microneedling?

Eighteen. Targeted treatments are for adults; for ages 14–18, the Teen Facial is the right place to start.

Can I have RF microneedling while pregnant?

Tell us — this is exactly what the consultation exists to answer for you specifically, rather than a blanket rule on a website. In the meantime, facials are the option most people choose during pregnancy — comfortable for as long as lying on your back is.

What should I avoid after RF microneedling?

The honest answer is custom: aftercare depends on your skin and the course we plan together. It's covered at the consultation, and at the end of each treatment we tell you exactly what to pause and for how long.

How do I start with RF microneedling in Waterdown?

RF microneedling at Sunwaves Facial Studio in Waterdown, Ontario always starts with a $50 skin consultation — it is the one treatment we never book directly. RF goes deeper than a classic facial: whether it is right for you depends on your skin, your history and what you want to change, and for some people something simpler will do more. The consultation is where we work that out honestly, and the $50 is credited toward your treatment if you go ahead. It is for adults 18 and over; for ages 14 to 18 the Teen Facial is the right starting point, and if your goal is glow rather than firmness, our specialty facials are the gentler route. Aftercare is planned with you at the consultation and confirmed at the end of each session, so you always know exactly what to pause and for how long. The studio is appointment-only, Wednesday to Saturday — book your consultation online or by email.
