Introduction: 10 Facts You Didn’t Know About Gold RF Microneedling
In my role as an Aesthetic Director (here with Wellaholic), I’ve had the privilege of guiding numerous young adults in Singapore through their aesthetic journeys. One of the most intriguing and advanced treatments that often sparks curiosity is Gold RF Microneedling. Despite its growing popularity, there are many aspects of this treatment that remain lesser-known to the general public.
Dive Deep into the World of Gold RF Microneedling: 10 Facts to Know Before You Glow
In this article, I will unveil 10 fascinating facts about Gold RF Microneedling that you might not be aware of. These insights are gleaned from my extensive experience in the aesthetics industry, interactions with clients, and continuous research.
Understanding these facts will not only enlighten you about the procedure but also help you make informed decisions if you’re considering this innovative skin rejuvenation method.
“Gold RF Microneedling may be a relatively new procedure, but it already holds a world of potential to revolutionize skincare!”
Fact 1: Gold RF Microneedling is a Non-Surgical Treatment
This innovative procedure marries the rejuvenating benefits of microneedling with the advanced technology of radiofrequency energy. The process involves tiny needles that create micro-injuries in the skin, while the gold plating and radiofrequency energy enhance collagen production and skin tightening.
From my discussions with industry experts and feedback from clients, the appeal of Gold RF Microneedling lies in its minimal downtime and its versatility in treating various skin concerns like fine lines, scars, and overall skin texture. It’s a go-to for those who seek noticeable improvements without the commitment of surgery.
Fact 2: RF Microneedling Improves A Whole Bunch of Skin Woes
Acne, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, stretch marks; you name it! Gold RF Microneedling can effectively treat a whole bunch of skin conditions. It can lift saggy skin and revitalise dull and uneven skin tone. It can even minimise the appearance of large pores too!
The radiofrequency energy heats the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production, resulting in firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin. RF Microneedling is a safe and effective non-surgical alternative to more invasive procedures such as facelifts and skin tightening surgeries. It can be performed on the face, neck, chest, and other areas of the body.
Fact 3: Yes, It’s Actually Gold
Gold RF Microneedling represents a significant advancement in skincare technology, particularly for those seeking minimally invasive yet effective treatments. This innovative procedure employs ultra-fine needles plated with gold, a material known for its excellent conductivity and biocompatibility. Unlike traditional microneedling techniques, gold RF microneedling minimizes the risk of bruising and bleeding, making it a gentler option for skin rejuvenation.
As these gold-plated needles delicately penetrate the skin, they release radiofrequency (RF) energy. This energy is crucial in stimulating the skin’s natural healing process, primarily by boosting collagen and elastin production. Collagen and elastin are vital proteins that contribute to the skin’s firmness and elasticity. The gold plating on the needles enhances the transfer of RF energy, ensuring deeper and more uniform skin penetration. This process not only rejuvenates the skin but also creates new microchannels. These microchannels act as conduits, linking different layers of the skin, which aids in the more efficient absorption of skincare products and further enhances the treatment’s effectiveness.
Fact 4: Gold RF Microneedling is Backed by Research
We wouldn’t be providing this treatment if we knew it wasn’t effective. There are several research papers that prove the effectiveness of RF Microneedling. There are three studies that we look at for the effectiveness of Gold RF Microneedling.
- In one 2018 study (Source), the RF microneedle treatment offers a minimally invasive treatment option with little downtime for the treatment of acne scars, improvement in skin texture, and reduced size of skin pores. The results suggest this treatment offers high satisfaction in results among clinicians and patients.
- In a 2014 study (Source), it was concluded that RF Microneedling treatment can be considered as an effective modality of treatment for moderate to severe acne scars in patients with an added advantage of minimal downtime and effective improvement.
- In a 2020 article (Source), Microneedling with radiofrequency is a great option for skin tightening and resurfacing to treat wrinkles, lip lines, acne scars, other depressed scars, and stretch marks, and it can be used regardless of skin phototype. RF microneedling is deemed safe to use in patients with darker skin types
Fact 4: Gold RF Microneedling is Backed by Research
Gold RF Microneedling: A Scientifically-Validated Treatment
Gold RF Microneedling has been validated as an effective cosmetic procedure through various scientific studies. Research investigations have consistently demonstrated the safety and efficacy of this innovative treatment.
Research Findings on Gold RF Microneedling
Notably, a study published in the Journal of Drugs in Dermatology documented significant improvement in skin texture, wrinkle reduction, and overall appearance enhancement in all participants after a single session of Gold RF Microneedling. Another study in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology highlighted its effectiveness in reducing acne scars and enhancing skin texture, accompanied by minimal side effects.
The Working Principle of Gold RF Microneedling
The Gold RF Microneedling procedure works by triggering collagen and elastin production via gold-plated microneedles and radiofrequency energy. The gold plating on the microneedles adds an extra advantage as it minimizes skin irritation and inflammation. This makes Gold RF Microneedling a safer and more comfortable choice for many patients.
Fact 5: Gold RF Microneedling Is Different From Lasers
Lasers Vs. Gold RF Microneedling: Different Approaches to Skin Treatment
Gold RF Microneedling and laser treatments are different cosmetic procedures, although they both address various skin concerns. They utilize distinct technologies and methods, making each better suited for different skin types and specific concerns.
How Laser Treatments Work
Laser treatments use light energy to tackle skin issues like hyperpigmentation, acne scars, and fine lines. This energy is absorbed by the skin’s pigment or water, creating heat that damages the targeted tissue. The body then naturally repairs this damaged tissue, reducing the skin issues.
Understanding Gold RF Microneedling
Gold RF Microneedling operates differently. It employs gold-plated microneedles to create micro-injuries in the skin, sparking the body’s natural healing response. Radiofrequency energy is then channeled into the skin via these microneedles, stimulating collagen and elastin production. This process leads to firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin. The gold plating on the microneedles also helps reduce skin irritation and inflammation, providing a safer and more comfortable experience for many patients.
Choosing the Right Treatment
While both treatments can significantly enhance the appearance of the skin, their different methods make them more suitable for different skin types and concerns. Therefore, it’s essential to consult with a skincare professional to determine the best treatment for your specific needs.
Fact 6: The RF Strength is Adjustable
The delivery of thermal energy deep into the skin plays a pivotal role in stimulating collagen production, a key factor in maintaining skin’s youthful appearance and elasticity. This process is effectively achieved through the use of radiofrequency energy, which can be finely tuned between 60w to 120w to cater to the unique needs of each customer. The customization of power levels allows for a targeted approach to address various skin concerns, ranging from acne scars and wrinkles to pigmentation issues and sagging skin.
By adjusting the intensity of the radiofrequency energy, treatments can be tailored to achieve optimal results, ensuring that each individual receives a personalized skincare experience that addresses their specific concerns. This technique underscores the importance of a bespoke approach in skincare, where treatments are not one-size-fits-all but are instead carefully adjusted to meet the distinct requirements of each person’s skin.
Fact 7: Needles are System Controlled
The delivery of thermal energy deep into the skin plays a pivotal role in stimulating collagen production, a key factor in maintaining skin’s youthful appearance and elasticity. This process is effectively achieved through the use of radiofrequency energy, which can be finely tuned between 60w to 120w to cater to the unique needs of each customer.
The customization of power levels allows for a targeted approach to address various skin concerns, ranging from acne scars and wrinkles to pigmentation issues and sagging skin.
How Radiofrequency Treatments Are Revolutionizing Personalized Skincare
By adjusting the intensity of the radiofrequency energy, treatments can be tailored to achieve optimal results, ensuring that each individual receives a personalized skincare experience that addresses their specific concerns.
This technique underscores the importance of a bespoke approach in skincare, where treatments are not one-size-fits-all but are instead carefully adjusted to meet the distinct requirements of each person’s skin.
Fact 8: Gold RF Microneedling Has Shorter Downtimes
But you can enjoy a faster recovery time with Gold RF Microneedling. Most of the time, you only need around 5 days; you can even apply makeup 24 hours after your Gold RF Microneedling session. That’s unlike the conventional laser resurfacing treatments for acne scar removal, which usually needs a downtime of 7-14 days before all the skin redness, swelling and skin peeling subside.
The recovery time is faster when compared to fractional lasers because the outer layer of the skin, the epidermal layer, is spared. With Gold RF Microneedling, precise energy is delivered directly into the dermal skin layer.
Fact 9: Gold RF Microneedling Works Better Than Microneedling
Understanding Microneedling
Microneedling is an effective cosmetic treatment aimed at improving skin appearance. It involves the use of tiny needles to induce micro-injuries in the skin, prompting the body’s natural healing response. The process results in an increased production of collagen and elastin, substances crucial for skin health. Microneedling can enhance skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and diminish scars and stretch marks.
The RF Microneedling Approach
RF Microneedling, while employing the same core principle as Microneedling, introduces an additional factor: radiofrequency energy. This energy heats the deeper skin layers, stimulating even more collagen and elastin production. The outcome is a more noticeable improvement in skin firmness, texture, and overall appearance. RF Microneedling is especially potent for treating advanced signs of aging, such as deeper wrinkles, sagging skin, and acne scars.
Choosing Between Microneedling and RF Microneedling
Both treatments can significantly enhance skin appearance, but RF Microneedling might be more effective for certain concerns. The decision on the appropriate treatment will depend on the specific skin condition and desired outcome. As such, it’s recommended to consult with a skincare professional for personalized advice.
Differences between RF microneedling and microneedling treatments
Here is a table that depicts the differences between RF microneedling and microneedling treatments:
| Treatment | RF Microneedling | Microneedling |
|---|---|---|
| Treatment Type | Radiofrequency-based treatment | Non-radiofrequency-based treatment |
| Procedure Description | Uses a device with tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin and applies radiofrequency energy | Uses a device with tiny needles to create micro-injuries in the skin |

| Recovery Time | Minimal downtime, some redness and mild swelling | Minimal downtime, some redness and mild swelling |
| Pain/Discomfort | May cause mild to moderate discomfort during the treatment | May cause mild to moderate discomfort during the treatment |
| Effectiveness | Highly effective, noticeable results in a few weeks | Effective, but may require several treatments for best results |
| Cost | More expensive compared to traditional microneedling | Less expensive compared to RF microneedling |
Please note that the effectiveness and cost of these treatments can vary depending on various factors such as the individual’s skin type, the specific issues being addressed, and the number of treatments received.
Fact 10: Gold RF Microneedling Can be Enhanced with Serums
Gold RF Microneedling can be combined with 3 possible serums (Hyaluronic Acid, Matrixyl, Resveratrol). The treatment actually allows the three different kinds of serum to penetrate to the deeper layers of the skin. So, expect your skin to be firmer, tighter and more rejuvenated skin after the treatment.
Conclusion
In conclusion, my interactions with numerous clients and continuous research in the aesthetics field have led me to uncover some intriguing aspects of Gold RF Microneedling. Firstly, it’s not just a trend; this procedure harnesses the natural healing process of the body, making it a powerful tool in aesthetic medicine.
