Project Brief

A South Korea-based medical-device company is evaluating the Singapore market for a dual-handpiece radiofrequency platform designed for medical aesthetic use.

The platform combines two RF technologies:

• A non-invasive 6.78 MHz monopolar RF handpiece with gliding treatment tips, real-time impedance-based energy control, closed-loop temperature sensing, and cooling technology.

• A bipolar microneedling RF handpiece using dual frequencies of 1 MHz and 2 MHz, with adjustable needle penetration up to 4 mm and a multi-layer mode designed to deliver RF energy at multiple depths within a single insertion. The system uses single-use sterile microneedle tips.
