Fractional microneedling RF (Elysses/INDERMO) — treatment at J'adore Instytut

Fractional microneedling RF (Elysses/INDERMO)

Microneedles deliver radiofrequency deep into the skin — where new collagen is formed. The epidermis remains untouched, while firmness is restored from within.

Firmness from within
“needle and radio wave”

Skin that is losing firmness, acne scars that will not fade, enlarged pores, stretch marks on the abdomen or thighs — these are structural skin concerns, not surface issues. A cream alone cannot correct them.

The change needs to happen deeper, in the dermis, where collagen is found. Fractional microneedling RF does exactly this. Fine, insulated microneedles deliver radiofrequency at a controlled depth. Controlled micro-injury and heat stimulate the skin to remodel and produce new collagen and elastin. The result is not immediate — it develops over weeks — but it is real and long-lasting. Below, you will find everything worth knowing before your first visit.

How it works

How it works

Fractional microneedling RF combines two mechanisms in a single pass of the applicator. First, fine microneedles enter the skin at a precisely selected depth. On their own, they create tiny channels that trigger natural regeneration. At the same time, the needle tips deliver radiofrequency (RF). This heats the dermis and creates targeted, controlled thermal micro-injuries.

This heat is key. The skin recognises it as a signal that it needs to rebuild and begins producing new collagen and elastin. Over the following weeks, skin becomes denser and firmer, with a smoother texture. Most importantly, the needles are insulated, so the energy works deep within the skin rather than on the epidermis. This protects the skin surface and makes the treatment well tolerated.

Three layers of skin in cross-section: the epidermis at the surface, the dermis beneath it, and deepest of all the subcutaneous tissue. Insulated microneedles pass through the epidermis and release the radiofrequency only in the dermis. The specialist matches the needle depth and the power to the area.
  1. Epidermisthe layer insulated microneedles bypass
  2. Dermisthe level the radiofrequency is released at
  3. Subcutaneous tissuedeeper than the microneedles reach

Did you know? In the INDERMO device, the microneedle electrodes are coated with 24-carat gold. This is not decorative, but functional. Gold conducts electricity very well while insulating the epidermis. This means radiofrequency is activated only deep within the skin, exactly where it needs to support collagen.

Ideal for

Ideal for

  1. Loss of firmnessfacial and body skin that has lost tension, including the abdomen after pregnancy, inner arms and thighs.
  2. Acne scarsindentations and uneven texture; one of the strongest indications for fractional microneedling RF.
  3. Enlarged poreslasting reduction and smoother facial skin.
  4. Stretch markswhite and red (striae albae and rubrae), on the abdomen, hips and thighs.
  5. Fine and moderate wrinklessmoothing through skin remodelling, not filling.
  6. Uneven skin texture“texture refinement”, even skin tone and a smoother surface.
  7. Post-traumatic and post-operative scarssoftening and flattening of the affected area.
  8. This treatment supports skin quality and firmness — it does not replace diet, exercise or fat reduction. It works best as part of a considered plan, selected during consultation for your skin and goals.

Women’s and men’s zones

What differs

For her

Fractional microneedling RF and the female body — where changes occur most often

The most common goal is firming and smoothing the skin — on the face and body, in areas that have lost firmness after weight fluctuations or pregnancy. This is classic fractional microneedling RF for women. The skin is thinner and more delicate, so gentler settings are selected and the series is planned for a gradual, natural result.

The areas we support

  1. lax skin on the abdomen after pregnancy and weight loss;
  2. stretch marks on the abdomen, hips and thighs — smoothing and softening;
  3. the inner upper arms and thighs — loss of firmness;
  4. face: pores, fine lines, acne scars, facial contour.
For him

Fractional microneedling RF for men — different skin, different goals

Men most often come with acne scars and uneven skin texture on the face, as well as body laxity after weight loss or training. This is fractional microneedling RF for men. The skin is thicker and more resistant, so the needles often work deeper. The result is firm, “masculine” skin rather than perfectly smooth skin.

The areas we support

  1. acne scars and uneven texture on the cheeks and temples;
  2. “love handles” and love handles — skin laxity after losing weight;
  3. lax skin on the abdomen and upper arms after sport and weight fluctuations;
  4. chin and facial contour — denser skin, less sagging.

Safety

What truly determines the result

Fractional microneedling RF breaks the skin barrier, so the result and safety depend on technique and hygiene. It is worth asking about this at every salon:

  1. Who performs the treatment

    At J'adore, the treatment is performed by an experienced cosmetologist, who assesses your skin, selects the needle depth and radiofrequency power, and rules out contraindications. This is not an off-the-shelf treatment — settings are selected individually.

  2. Single-use, sterile cartridge

    The needles come into contact with blood — the cartridge is single-use (one treatment, one person). This is fundamental to safety. You have the right to ask about it and to see it being unpacked in front of you.

  3. Selection of depth and power

    One depth is used for pores, another for a deep scar or stretch mark. A good cosmetologist explains why specific settings are selected for a given zone.

A red flag: “lifting after one treatment” and a suspiciously cheap package · Fractional microneedling RF is a treatment whose result builds over weeks and requires a series. Promises such as “spectacular results after one session”, “stretch marks will disappear completely”, or a very cheap package without consultation are warning signs. With a treatment that breaks the skin barrier, the origin of the equipment, cartridge sterility and the qualifications of the person performing it matter as much as the price. You have the right to ask about the device, whether the needles are single-use, and who performs the treatment — a good salon will answer without hesitation.

BODY CONTOURING & SLIMMING

What to expect during your visit

  1. Cosmetology consultationassessment of your skin, concern — firmness, a scar, stretch marks or pores — expectations and contraindications. We establish the number of treatments in the series here.
  2. Skin preparationcleansing and usually local anaesthesia with cream to ensure the treatment is comfortable.
  3. Treatmenta handpiece with a single-use cartridge is moved over the zone; microneedles deliver radiofrequency at the selected depth. In a vacuum device, the handpiece gently draws the skin in, further reducing discomfort.
  4. Soothing and protectionafter the treatment, we apply a soothing product. Your skin is red and sometimes slightly swollen.
  5. Series planwe arrange the date of your next treatment, usually in 4–6 weeks, and discuss your home aftercare routine.

Contraindications

When to postpone treatment

Microneedling RF breaks the skin barrier, so the same rules apply as for any needle treatment. Some contraindications are permanent, while others are temporary. In these cases, we simply postpone the treatment until the issue has passed.

We don't perform it
  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding
  • Active cold sores (Herpes)including in an area other than the treatment site, such as the lips. Breaking the skin can reactivate them — we postpone treatment until healing is complete.
  • Blood clotting disorders and anticoagulant medicationrequire assessment and caution due to the risk of bruising and bleeding.
  • Active inflammation or infection in the treatment areaactive pustular acne, wounds or irritation.
  • A fresh tan(natural or from a sunbed) — we wait to avoid hyperpigmentation. After the treatment, skin should also be protected from the sun.
  • A tendency to develop keloid scarsrequires an individual, careful assessment.
  • Metal implants / a pacemaker in the areaand certain skin conditions — assessed by the cosmetologist due to the radiofrequency.
  • Fever and a general infectionwait until you have recovered.

From the cosmetologist’s salon

The most commonly overlooked issue is cold sores. Some people think: ‘I have one on my lip, but my treatment is on my abdomen — it does not matter.’ It does matter. An active virus combined with broken skin is a real risk, regardless of where it appears. It is better to postpone for a few days and have the treatment without concern.

This is not a complete list. We review your medication, conditions, implants and previous treatments individually during consultation.

What to expect

No surprises

Most importantly: you will not see the result immediately. Straight after the treatment, the skin is red and tight — this is not yet the result, but a response to stimulation. The true change — denser, firmer, smoother skin — appears over the following weeks as the skin produces new collagen.

  1. Faza 1.1–3 daysredness and swelling subside; skin feels tight, with tiny needle marks
  2. Faza 2.1–2 weeksskin becomes smoother and its texture visibly evens out
  3. Faza 3.4–8 weeksthe full result of a single treatment — collagen has rebuilt
  4. Faza 4.after completing the seriesa cumulative effect of firmness and improved scars; lasts for months
Some people write after two days: ‘My skin looks the same, nothing is happening.’ This is completely normal — fractional microneedling RF works beneath the skin, and collagen production takes weeks. That is why we assess the result after a few weeks, not the next day. It is also why we plan a series — one treatment is a starting point, not the full process.
From the cosmetologist’s salon

What is normal after the treatment

  • redness and a feeling of warmth — usually for a few hours up to 1–2 days;
  • mild swelling and tiny needle marks, sometimes a grid-like pattern of marks — these fade within a few days;
  • a feeling of tightness and skin ‘pulling’, sometimes slight peeling over the following days;
  • occasionally, a small bruise — when treating a more vascular area.

The result builds with each treatment in the series and lasts for months. Skin continues to age, so it is worth repeating the treatment after some time. This can be a single session or a mini-series to maintain firmness — but the benefits of the collagen already built remain.

Fractional microneedling RF and your lifestyle

What you can do and when

The most common questions are not about the treatment itself, but what happens afterwards: exercise, sauna, sun, swimming pool, make-up. The rule is simple — during the first few days, the skin has needle microchannels and is healing. Avoid anything that may irritate or heat it, or pose a risk of infection.

  1. Exercise and the gym

    wait 24–48 h

    After the treatment, avoid intense exercise for 1–2 days. Sweat and increased circulation can irritate freshly punctured skin and intensify redness. You can return to gentle movement soon afterwards.

  2. Sauna and hot bath

    take a break for a few days

    High temperatures dilate blood vessels and intensify swelling. With open needle channels, they also increase the risk of irritation. Use the sauna and hammam only once the skin has healed.

  3. Sun and tanning beds

    avoid for ~2 weeks

    This is crucial: freshly treated skin is prone to hyperpigmentation. Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for around 2 weeks. Use SPF 50+ every day — without it, the result may be compromised.

  4. Swimming pool and steam room

    until healed

    Chlorinated or public water poses a risk of irritation and infection when needle microchannels are present. We postpone swimming until the skin has fully healed.

  5. Alcohol

    avoid for 24 h

    Alcohol dilates blood vessels and increases redness and the risk of bruising — it is best avoided on the day of treatment and the following day.

  6. Skincare and make-up

    gently, make-up after ~24 h

    For the first few days, use only gentle products without acids, retinol or peels. You can usually apply make-up from the following day, once the skin has healed — confirm the exact timing with your cosmetologist.

Frequently asked questions

  1. QuestionHow many treatments will I need to see results?
    AnswerInitial skin smoothing may be visible 1–2 weeks after the first treatment. However, the full effect develops over 4–8 weeks as your skin produces collagen. We therefore plan a programme of 3–5 treatments every 4–6 weeks — the effect builds with each session.
  2. QuestionWill microneedling RF remove my acne scars completely?
    AnswerWe do not promise complete removal. This is one of the strongest indications for microneedling RF, and scars can genuinely become shallower while skin texture becomes more even. However, results are gradual and depend on the type of scar. An honest assessment always takes place during consultation.
  3. QuestionAre the results long-lasting?
    AnswerThe collagen produced remains in the skin, so results last for months. Skin continues to age, so it is worth repeating the treatment after some time, either as a single session or a mini-programme, to maintain firmness.
  4. QuestionWill microneedling RF help me lose weight from my abdomen?
    AnswerNo — this treatment improves skin quality and firmness, not fat tissue. It works very well for lax skin left after weight loss or pregnancy, but it does not replace diet and exercise.
