ASOKE · BANGNA BY ADVANCE APPOINTMENT
Programme EXION Fractional RF is an RF microneedling treatment for acne scars and uneven skin texture. Fine needles deliver RF energy into the skin, with the plan based on your scars and the areas you want to address. Visit BEHAP Asoke in Bangkok, or arrange Bangna in advance.
01 / UNDERSTAND YOUR SKIN
Programme EXION Fractional RF uses a needle-based applicator on BTL’s platform. Fine needles deliver monopolar radiofrequency energy into the skin. The resulting heat stimulates collagen remodelling, making it an option for the appearance of acne scars, wrinkles and uneven texture. [1] [2]
Acne-scar care starts with an assessment of the scars and the skin in each area. Your doctor considers your goals and skin response before choosing the needle tip, depth and energy settings for your treatment plan.
The focus is smoother-looking skin. The device model used for Programme EXION Fractional RF has been studied directly in people with acne scars, although the published study is small. [2]
Wrinkles were also assessed in the published study of this needle-based applicator and can be considered alongside texture, according to the needs of the treatment area. [2]
02 / CONTROLLED ENERGY
AI Pulse Control reads electrical impedance in the tissue and helps adjust RF energy delivery to the measured values. Your doctor remains responsible for selecting the treatment area, needle tip and clinical plan. [1]
The Single-pass approach means covering the target area once within that session. It describes how treatment is delivered; it does not mean one session completes a course. The number of sessions depends on the concern and the response observed at follow-up. [2]

Care is planned around the scars, wrinkles and skin in the area to be treated.
Your doctor selects the settings while the system helps control RF delivery according to the tissue’s electrical response.
Progress is assessed after the skin recovers and used to inform the next step in care.
03 / THE RIGHT APPLICATOR
Both programmes use the same BTL platform with different applicators. Programme EXION Fractional RF uses the needle-based applicator. Programme EXION HYA at BEHAP uses the needle-free Face applicator, which combines RF with Targeted Ultrasound for skin hydration and texture. [1] [4]
The procedure, sensations and aftercare differ. Mention Programme EXION Fractional RF when enquiring so the clinic team knows which programme you mean.
RF delivered through fine needles, with a focus on acne scars and skin texture. Skin preparation and recovery need to be planned.

04 / YOUR TREATMENT VISIT
During RF microneedling, you may feel needle sensations, heat or stinging in some areas. Appropriate numbing preparation and telling the care team how you feel are part of the treatment experience. [3] [5]
Share the areas that concern you, your skin history, medicines and previous procedures. Your doctor explains the options, expected changes and care plan before treatment.
The skin is cleansed and numbing is used when needed. The needle tip and settings are selected for the area and your skin.
Your doctor uses the needle-based applicator according to the plan. Tell the care team if you feel heat, stinging or discomfort so they can assess and adjust your care.
Before you leave, the clinic team explains skin care, what to avoid during recovery and when to review your progress.
05 / MAKE ROOM FOR RECOVERY
Redness, swelling or tiny needle marks can occur after treatment. How quickly the skin settles depends on the treated area, settings and individual response. If you have a meeting, photo shoot or important event, mention it before choosing a date so you can allow time for recovery. [3] [5]
Follow the clinic’s advice on when your skin is ready for make-up and potentially irritating products. Use gentle care and sun protection while healing. Further treatment must wait until the skin has fully recovered. [3]
Skin changes should be followed over time rather than judged from the first day alone. The pilot study of the device model used for Programme EXION Fractional RF assessed photographs for up to three months after the course. Your own number of sessions and review schedule will depend on the concern being treated. [2]
06 / THE EVIDENCE
Duncan’s 2024 pilot study evaluated the device model used for Programme EXION Fractional RF in 14 participants: five with acne scars, five with wrinkles and four with abdominal stretch marks. Participants received three treatments with anaesthesia, followed by photographic assessments after the course. [2]
The study reported an improvement in appearance, but it was small, had no comparison group and the author disclosed a relationship with BTL. It provides preliminary evidence to inform consideration of the programme, rather than a guarantee of results or proof of superiority over another device.
There are direct data on the device model used for Programme EXION Fractional RF in acne scars and wrinkles, supporting its place among options for skin texture.
Scar characteristics, treatment area, expected changes and response still need to be assessed and followed for your skin.
07 / PRICE & TREATMENT PLAN

Full-face Programme EXION Fractional RF with PDRN is listed at THB 10,000 for one session or THB 30,000 for four sessions. Share the treatment area and preferred branch to confirm programme details before booking. Bangna requires an advance appointment. [7]
Fine needles deliver RF energy to stimulate collagen remodelling and address the appearance of acne scars. The device model used for Programme EXION Fractional RF has been studied directly in people with acne scars, but scar characteristics and the treatment plan need an in-person skin assessment. [1] [2]
Single-pass means covering the target area once during that session. The number of sessions in a course is a separate decision. The pilot study used three treatments, but that is not a fixed course for everyone. Your doctor plans and reviews care around your skin concern. [2]
Redness, swelling or tiny needle marks can occur after treatment. How quickly the skin settles depends on the treated area, settings and individual response. Tell the team about an important event before choosing a date, so you can allow recovery time and receive aftercare guidance for your skin. [3] [5]
Wait until your skin is ready and follow the clinic’s aftercare advice, especially if needle marks or irritation remain. Do not plan on being able to apply make-up immediately after every treatment. [3]
Preliminary data come from just four participants with abdominal stretch marks in the pilot study. These findings do not cover stretch marks at every body site. If this interests you, ask the clinic which areas it treats and how an assessment can be arranged before booking. [2]
Both programmes use RF microneedling, but their circuits and energy-delivery controls differ. Programme EXION Fractional RF uses monopolar RF with AI Pulse Control; Programme Morpheus8 Burst uses bipolar RF with energy delivery at multiple depths. The linked comparison article explains these differences to help prepare for a discussion with your doctor. [4]
Programme EXION RF microneedling vs Programme Morpheus8 BurstAlongside temporary redness, swelling and needle marks, complications reported with certain uses of RF microneedling include burns, scarring, fat loss and nerve injury. This is a warning about the procedure category. Discuss benefits, risks and alternatives with your doctor before treatment. [5] [6]
Programme EXION Fractional RF is available at BEHAP Asoke. Treatment at Bangna requires an advance appointment. Specify the programme and branch when enquiring so the clinic team can coordinate your visit.
