Secret RF - is device head replaced (or cleaned) after each procedure?

Hello daicheto:

First of all, each tip is absolutely to be used only on one patient in a single session. Secondly, most of us use up the pulses stored on each tip, so usually there are no pulses left after a treatment. Thirdly, it is not physically possible to clean and sterilize the tips between treatments.

Please find a practice that will give you a sterile and complete treatment.

All the best from NYC,

My policy is one device head per session per patient. Sometimes I go through 2 heads in one session. Secret RF is a microneedling device that I am familiar with. Yes, its better than non- energy based micro needling however if one is treating acne scars, the needles blunt very quickly, so sometime I often do a head change. Regardless, I never give consumables back to the patient (especially if there is an infection risk), regardless, this is much akin to re-using sharp needles- they go blunt! New head every time. Insist on it. As a guide the head cost price is about 18-25 Euro. Not much in the scheme of things. Dr Davin Lim
