How many Microneedling sessions are needed for results?
Most clients at Wellaholic in Singapore require 8 to 12 Microneedling sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, to achieve significant and lasting improvements. This process stimulates natural collagen and elastin production. For deeper issues, Gold RF Microneedling can aggressively boost collagen, potentially reducing the total number of sessions needed.

Introduction
Achieving that coveted “glass skin” glow is a top priority for many in Singapore, but skincare products alone often hit a plateau. This is where Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy) steps in as a game-changer for acne scars, large pores, and uneven texture.
But the question remains: How many sessions does it actually take to see results?
The short answer: Most clients require a series of 8 to 12 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, to achieve significant and lasting improvements. However, the exact number depends heavily on your skin condition, age, and the specific technology used (such as standard microneedling versus Gold RF Microneedling).
This guide breaks down the timeline, what to expect, and how Wellaholic’s expert team ensures you get the best value for your skin journey.

Understanding the “Why”: The Collagen Cycle
Microneedling works by creating thousands of microscopic channels in the skin. This controlled “micro-injury” triggers the body’s natural wound-healing process, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin.
Because your skin regenerates in cycles (roughly every 28 days), a single session provides a nice glow, but it is rarely enough to correct deeper structural issues like pitting or deep wrinkles.
Factors Influencing Your Session Count
- Lifestyle: Smoking or high sun exposure without protection can slow down the healing process, requiring more sessions.
- Age: Younger skin regenerates faster. Clients over 40 may require additional sessions to kickstart collagen production effectively.
- Skin Condition: Treating general dullness is faster than treating deep, rolling acne scars.
📊 Expert Insight: “Collagen rebuilding is cumulative. Think of it like going to the gym for your skin—one workout feels good, but a consistent routine builds the muscle. Similarly, stacking microneedling sessions builds the collagen density needed to smooth out deep scars.”

Microneedling Roadmap: By Skin Concern
Standard Microneedling vs. Gold RF Microneedling
While standard microneedling is effective, Gold RF Microneedling adds Radio Frequency energy to the mix. The gold-plated needles deliver heat deep into the dermis, tightening the skin and stimulating collagen far more aggressively than needles alone. This often reduces the total number of sessions required to see the same result.
To help you plan your treatments, we have compiled a general roadmap based on common skin concerns seen at our Singapore outlets.
| Skin Concern | Est. Sessions Needed | Frequency | Expected Outcome |
| General Rejuvenation | 3 – 4 Sessions | Every 4 Weeks | Brighter tone, smoother texture, “Glow” effect. |
| Mild Acne Scars | 4 – 6 Sessions | Every 4 Weeks | Shallower scars, reduced post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. |
| Deep Acne Scars | 6 – 10 Sessions | Every 4–6 Weeks | Significant leveling of pitted scars; often best combined with Gold RF. |
| Large Pores | 3 – 6 Sessions | Every 4 Weeks | Tighter pore appearance and reduced oiliness. |
| Stretch Marks | 6 – 8 Sessions | Every 4–6 Weeks | Fading of white/silver marks and improved skin thickness. |
📊 Standard microneedling is effective, Gold RF Microneedling adds Radio Frequency energy to the mix.

The Process: What to Expect
If you are new to microneedling, the process is straightforward but requires adherence to a schedule.
Procedures:
Before the treatment, we’ll start by gently cleansing your face with a toner only to prep your skin. Once your skin is clean, we’ll proceed with the treatment. After the session, no serum will be applied unless you’ve purchased a multi-session package.
The Aftermath (Days 1–3)
- Day 1: You will look like you have a mild sunburn. This is normal.
- Day 2: Redness subsides; skin may feel tight or dry.
- Day 3-5: Mild peeling may occur as new skin reveals itself.
📊 Expert Insight: “Consistency is key. Skipping appointments or spacing them too far apart (e.g., waiting 3 months between sessions) allows the collagen stimulation to taper off, forcing you to restart the momentum.”
