Advanced RF Microneedling for Pigmentation, Rosacea, Scarring & Skin Rejuvenation
At Face Studio Clinic in Birmingham, we offer Sylfirm X – the world’s first and only dual-wave RF microneedling device that treats both vascular and pigmented skin concerns with precision and minimal downtime.
Using innovative repeated ultra-short pulse (RUSP) technology, Sylfirm X targets skin at a cellular level, stimulating collagen and repairing damaged tissue for a smoother, clearer, and more youthful complexion.
Sylfirm X is suitable for all skin types and is clinically proven to treat:
Rosacea and redness
Melasma and pigmentation
Acne and acne scars
Enlarged pores
Skin laxity and fine lines
Uneven skin texture
Stretch marks
PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation)
Broken capillaries and vascular lesions
To boost results, Sylfirm X can be combined with:
Exosomes – advanced skin cell messengers that promote healing, reduce inflammation, and accelerate skin regeneration
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) – using your body’s own growth factors to stimulate collagen, improve skin tone, and reduce downtime
These powerful combinations are ideal for patients looking to maximise their results and support faster recovery.
At Face Studio Clinic, our expert skin clinicians customise each Sylfirm X session to your unique needs. Whether you’re treating stubborn pigmentation, sensitivity, or scarring, we offer personalised care and clinically backed protocols for optimal results.
A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment to minimise discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a light prickling or warmth in the skin.
Initial results can be seen within 1–2 weeks, with continued improvement over the following months as collagen production increases
Downtime is minimal. Most patients experience mild redness and sensitivity for 1–3 days post-treatment. You can usually return to normal activities the next day.
Most patients require a course of 3–6 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, depending on the condition being treated. Your clinician will create a tailored treatment plan based on your skin goals.
Yes, Sylfirm X is safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types, including darker skin tones, due to its selective energy delivery and minimal risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH
While both Sylfirm X and Morpheus8 use radiofrequency (RF) microneedling to stimulate collagen and tighten the skin, there are key differences:
Technology: Sylfirm X is the only RF microneedling device with dual-wave technology, using both continuous and pulsed RF to treat vascular and pigmented lesions—something Morpheus8 does not address.
Precision & Safety: Sylfirm X uses Repeated Ultra-Short Pulse (RUSP) technology, which allows for more controlled and targeted energy delivery, making it safer for sensitive and darker skin types.
Downtime: Sylfirm X generally has less downtime and discomfort compared to Morpheus8.
Conditions Treated: While Morpheus8 focuses mainly on skin tightening and texture, Sylfirm X also treats rosacea, melasma, redness, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
