Secret Pro
Secret Pro is a combination treatment that treats both the surface and deeper layers of the skin through Radiofrequency microneedling which tightens and firms the skin, and Co2 laser which resurfaces and refreshes the skin. Our patients at Beacon Face & Dermatology love this treatment as it allows them to address multiple skin concerns under one treatment plan.
What Concerns Does It Treat
Secret Pro is effective for a range of concerns, including scars (notably successful for acne scaring), sun damage, enlarged pores, general signs of ageing, and improving skin quality, texture, and brightness.
The RF microneedling part of Secret Pro works below the surface of your skin. Tiny needles within the handpiece make very small punctures in the skin and the gentle heat from the radiofrequency is delivered through those needles into the deeper skin layers to tighten existing collagen and stimulate new collagen, making skin firmer and smoother. The CO2 laser element of the treatment works on the surface of the skin to gently remove old, damaged skin cells and trigger the skin to make new, healthy ones.
This combo triggers your skin to repair itself and make new collagen and elastin which are the building blocks of firm, smooth skin.

Complimentary Treatments
- Secret Rf – Secret RF micro needling treatment stimulates collagen, improves elastin and provides an overall tightening to the skin while also improving the texture. Secret RF works really well prior to a resurfacing laser as it preps the skin by exfoliating , tightening and kick starts the process of collagen rebuilding in the skin.
- PRP Treatment Face Rejuvenation – PRP helps refresh overall skin quality by improving texture and tone and boosting radiance. It can soften fine lines and wrinkles, revive dull or tired-looking skin, and support scar and stretch-mark remodelling. By stimulating collagen and elastin, it improves firmness and helps reduce skin laxity. This is an excellent option to add on to your CO2 laser on the day or in the weeks after.
