Advanced Radiofrequency Skin Rejuvenation at Lumier Medical

Fine lines, skin laxity, acne scarring, enlarged pores, and uneven texture are some of the most common concerns patients bring into our office. These changes are often gradual—but they reflect real shifts happening beneath the skin, including collagen loss and changes in skin structure.

At Lumier Medical in Torrance, Dr. Michael Lum, D.O. offers Secret RF™, an advanced radiofrequency (RF) microneedling treatment designed to improve skin quality from the inside out. This treatment stimulates collagen and elastin production at precise depths—without the prolonged downtime associated with traditional lasers or aggressive resurfacing.

What Is Secret RF™ Microneedling?

Secret RF is a fractional microneedling treatment combined with radiofrequency energy. Unlike surface lasers that primarily target the outer layers of the skin, Secret RF delivers controlled RF energy through ultra-fine, gold-plated microneedles directly into the deeper dermis—where collagen remodeling occurs.

This approach allows Dr. Lum to:

  • Customize treatment depth based on anatomy and skin condition
  • Stimulate new collagen without excessive surface injury
  • Treat a wide range of skin tones and textures safely

Because the RF energy is delivered beneath the surface, Secret RF minimizes damage to the epidermis while encouraging long-term structural improvement.

If you’re looking for visible skin improvement with controlled healing and physician oversight, Secret RF may be an excellent option.

MORE SCIENCE: HOW SECRET RF WORKS

Step 1.

The micro-needle cartridge makes perfect contact with the skin.

Step 2.

Micro-needles smoothly penetrate the skin in a way that minimizes pain.

Step 3.

Bi-polar RF energy denatures the tissue at depths from 0.5mm to 3.5mm via patented non-insulated micro-needles.

Step 4.

Collagen regeneration and new elastin production begins.

What Can Secret RF Treat?

  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Acne scarring and textural irregularities
  • Skin laxity (face, neck, jawline)
  • Enlarged pores
  • Uneven pigmentation and sun damage
  • Stretch marks
  • Crepey or thinning skin

Treatments are fully customized based on your skin, goals, and tolerance for downtime.

FAQs For SECRET RF Microneedling

This is an in-office procedure that is performed by Dr. Lum.

A topical anesthetic will be applied to your skin and left on for an ample period of time. You should feel mild to moderate discomfort as most patients tolerate this procedure well and rarely complain.

Secret RF uses disposable handpiece tips with 25 sterile gold plated pins that are stamped together into the skin with each pulse. Each handpiece tip can be stamped (pulsed) into the skin up to 1500 times. So this means that up to 37,500 skin microchannels can be created with each treatment.

Handpiece tips are always disposed of after each treatment, and new ones are used for subsequent treatments.

Secret RF uses precision 2MHz bi-polar RF and tiny micro-needles that work together to produce an effect that minimizes damage to the epidermis. Precisely controlled RF energy is delivered to selectively adjusted depths from 0.5mm to 3.5mm with patented non-insulated micro-needles. Secret RF is capable of fractional heating and tissue denaturation, which stimulates fibroblasts in both the subdermal and dermal layers for effective skin remodeling. Secret RF can treat all skin types, including dark skin, with a low risk of side effects or darkening of the skin, what we call Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH).
