Skin Needling & RF Microneedling

Medical-grade skin needling (microneedling) and radiofrequency skin needling for collagen induction, skin texture improvement, fine lines, enlarged pores, and acne scars. Standard skin needling starts at $350 for the face; RF microneedling starts at $550 for the face, $650 for face and neck. Neck and décolletage packages also available. Performed by or under the supervision of Dr Peter Ryan at the Cronulla Plaza clinic.

Cronulla Cosmetic Medicine offers both standard skin needling (microneedling) and the more advanced radiofrequency (RF) skin needling at its Cronulla NSW clinic under the direction of Dr Peter Ryan. Standard skin needling uses a medical-grade device with fine sterile needles to create thousands of controlled micro-injuries across the skin surface, triggering the skin's wound-healing cascade: platelet activation, growth factor release, fibroblast proliferation, and new collagen and elastin synthesis. This collagen-induction effect progressively improves skin texture, reduces the appearance of fine lines and superficial acne scars, minimises enlarged pores, and improves overall skin tone over a series of three to six sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. Face skin needling is priced at $350 AUD; neck at $299 AUD; décolletage at $299 AUD; and a neck and décolletage combination at $349 AUD. RF skin needling combines the collagen-induction mechanism of standard skin needling with simultaneous delivery of radiofrequency energy at the needle tip, depositing heat at precise dermal depths to stimulate a second layer of collagen remodelling alongside the mechanical stimulus. The combination of mechanical micro-injury and targeted thermal energy results in enhanced and more durable skin tightening compared to standard microneedling alone, making RF microneedling particularly well suited to patients with skin laxity, deeper acne scarring, and more pronounced textural concerns. RF skin needling for the face is priced at $550 AUD, face and neck at $650 AUD, and face, neck, and décolletage at $750 AUD. Both treatment types are available at the Cronulla Plaza clinic in Sydney's Sutherland Shire, serving patients from Cronulla, Caringbah, Miranda, Kirrawee, and the broader southern Sydney area. The Cronulla location, with its beach-adjacent demographic, sees high demand for skin rejuvenation treatments addressing sun damage, photodamaged texture, and early laxity in an active outdoor lifestyle population.
