Genius RF for the face in London

The full face, from the forehead to the jaw, is the area the maker names first for Genius, "suitable for the face and body", and the area most of its patient studies were done on. Fine needles place radiofrequency heat in the dermis, the deeper layer of the skin, at a depth the clinician sets zone by zone. The skin firms, the texture smooths and fine lines soften as the collagen rebuilds over about six months. Three sessions four to six weeks apart, at Lutronic Genius RF London, 8 Devonshire Place, with the price in writing at a free consultation.

What it does on the face

The forehead, the cheeks, the lines around the mouth and the lower face are each treated at their own depth, deeper where there is tissue to contract and shallower over bone and thin skin. Enlarged pores and acne scars on the cheeks respond as collagen rebuilds under them. It does not lift a jowl that has dropped or add volume to a cheek that has lost it; those are surgical, muscle or filler questions, and the clinician says which at the free consultation.

The evidence

The US clearance word for the tissue effect is contraction, and the maker names the face and body without listing zones. The Genius studies on the lower face and neck, 53 patients in 2026 and 30 in 2025, measured less volume under the chin. A 2017 split-face study of radiofrequency microneedling, not of Genius, found deeper treatment improved the nasolabial fold more at three and twelve months. The lower face page sets them out.

The session and who it suits

Numbing cream for 30 to 45 minutes, the tip stamped across the face zone by zone, 30 to 45 minutes in our practice. Redness and swelling for one to three days, sometimes five, light crusting for up to five days in our experience, no make-up on the first day, sunscreen daily. Adults with crepey texture, fine lines, enlarged pores or early laxity across the face, on most skin types, with darker skin treated at lower energy after a patch test in our practice. The usual exclusions apply: pregnancy and breastfeeding, an active infection or cold sore, keloid scarring, recent isotretinoin, a bleeding disorder or blood thinners, an implanted device or metal near the area.
