RF microneedling has become one of the most sought after treatments for skin tightening, acne scarring, enlarged pores, and collagen stimulation. Two treatments frequently discussed online and across social media are Morpheus8 and Lutronic Infini.
While Morpheus8 has gained widespread attention through aggressive marketing and celebrity visibility, many patients are surprised to learn that multiple advanced RF microneedling technologies exist — each with different methods of energy delivery and treatment customization.
At Skin Co Aesthetics in Chilliwack, we offer Lutronic Infini RF Microneedling as part of our advanced skin rejuvenation treatments. Our approach focuses on selecting the most appropriate technology and treatment parameters for each patient’s skin concerns, anatomy, and long-term skin health goals rather than focusing solely on device popularity.
What Is RF Microneedling?
RF microneedling combines two technologies into one treatment:
• Microneedling to create controlled micro-injuries within the skin
• Radiofrequency energy delivered beneath the surface to stimulate collagen remodeling and skin tightening
Unlike traditional microneedling alone, RF microneedling adds thermal stimulation within deeper layers of tissue. This allows treatments to address concerns such as:
• Skin laxity
• Loss of jawline definition
• Sagging along the neck and jowls
• Pitted Acne scarring
• Enlarged pores
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven skin texture
• Crepey skin
• Post-pregnancy skin changes on the abdomen and body
• Mild to moderate skin tightening concerns
Over time, the body produces new collagen and elastin in response to treatment, leading to firmer, smoother, more refined skin.
What Is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a branded RF microneedling treatment designed to deliver radiofrequency energy through a matrix of microneedles to stimulate collagen production and tissue remodeling.
The treatment is commonly used for:
• Skin tightening
• Jawline refinement
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Acne scarring
• Texture irregularities
• Mild contouring concerns
Because of its strong online presence and celebrity marketing, Morpheus8 has become one of the most recognized RF microneedling treatments currently discussed in aesthetic medicine.
What Is Lutronic Infini?
Lutronic Infini is an advanced RF microneedling platform designed to deliver highly customizable radiofrequency energy at precise depths within the skin.
One of the key features of Infini is its insulated microneedle technology. The needles are insulated along the shaft, allowing radiofrequency energy to be concentrated more selectively at the targeted treatment depth rather than dispersing heat along the full needle channel.
This controlled energy delivery allows for highly customizable treatment parameters while minimizing unnecessary surface heating.
Infini is commonly used to address:
• Skin laxity
• Loss of jawline definition
• Sagging along the neck and jowls
• Acne scarring
• Enlarged pores
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven skin texture
• Crepey skin
• Post-pregnancy skin changes on the abdomen and body
• Advanced collagen remodeling
Morpheus8 vs Infini: Is There a Difference?
Although both treatments fall under the category of RF microneedling, the devices themselves are not identical in how energy is delivered within the skin.
One of the advantages of insulated RF microneedling systems such as Lutronic Infini is the ability to deliver energy more precisely at targeted depths within the tissue. This allows for highly customizable treatment settings based on the area being treated, skin thickness, and overall treatment goals.
Because Infini uses insulated needles, radiofrequency energy is concentrated more selectively at the intended treatment depth rather than dispersed throughout the entire needle shaft.
This level of customization can be particularly important when treating delicate or thinner areas of the face where precise energy delivery is essential.
Equally important, however, is provider technique, treatment depth selection, patient anatomy, and energy settings. The device itself is only one part of achieving safe and effective outcomes.
At Skin Co Aesthetics, RF Microneedling treatments are customized based on:
• Facial anatomy
• Skin thickness
• Degree of laxity
• Collagen health
• Desired outcome
• Appropriate treatment depth and intensity
What Skin Concerns Can RF Microneedling Improve?
RF Microneedling treatments may help improve:
• Mild to moderate skin laxity
• Jawline and neck tightening + contouring
• Acne scarring
• Enlarged pores
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Uneven texture
• Crepey skin
• Overall collagen support
Because collagen remodeling occurs gradually, results continue to improve over 3-4 months following a series of treatments.
Why Customization Matters
The most important factor in RF microneedling is not simply the name of a particular device, but rather how the treatment is performed and customized for the individual patient.
Different areas of the face require different treatment depths and energy settings. More aggressive treatments are not always better — particularly in thinner areas where overtreatment may not be appropriate.
At Skin Co Aesthetics, every RF Microneedling treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation to assess:
• Skin quality and laxity
• Facial anatomy
• Collagen health
• Treatment goals
• Appropriate treatment intensity
This allows treatments to be tailored specifically for long-term skin health, safety, and visible collagen remodeling.
RF Microneedling Treatments in Chilliwack
RF microneedling remains one of the most effective technologies available for collagen stimulation and skin remodeling when performed appropriately.
While treatments like Morpheus8 are widely recognized online, advanced technologies such as Lutronic Infini offer highly customizable treatment options with controlled energy delivery designed to target deeper layers of the skin with precision.
At Skin Co Aesthetics, every treatment plan begins with a detailed consultation to determine the most appropriate treatment approach for your skin, anatomy, and long-term goals.
If you are considering RF microneedling for skin tightening, acne scarring, advanced signs of skin aging, or collagen support, the next step is a professional consultation to determine the safest and most effective treatment plan for your skin.
