Is Gold RF Microneedling effective for acne scars?
Yes, Gold RF Microneedling is highly effective for acne scars, achieving a 90.2% permanent reduction in scar visibility over a full protocol. Wellaholic in Singapore utilizes a 3,000W system with adjustable needle depths (0.3mm-4.0mm) to trigger deep collagen and elastin production, safely repairing deep acne scars and tightening loose skin.

Introduction
Razor burns and skin irritation are frustrating, but “surface tearing” from home dermarollers is a far greater risk to your skin’s health. Unregulated needle sizes and improper techniques often lead to infection and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) rather than the glow you were promised. Wellaholic’s expert team provides medical-grade precision as the only safe way to trigger deep collagen induction.
By using vacuum-stabilized technology and adjustable needle depths, we ensure that thermal energy reaches the dermis without causing unnecessary trauma to the skin’s surface.

Section 1: The Science of Fractional Thermolysis
Gold RF Microneedling is not a traditional “spa-fluff” facial; it is a clinical procedure that combines fractional radiofrequency (RF) with microneedling. Our equipment features a 3,000W high-performance system that allows our senior therapists to calibrate needle depth from 0.3mm to 4.0mm.
Unlike generic treatments, this dual-action mechanism triggers a wound-healing response known as “Fractional Thermolysis.” By leaving microscopic pillars of healthy tissue between micro-wounds, the skin undergoes massive collagen and elastin production to repair deep acne scars and tighten loose skin while accelerating the overall healing process.
“Fractional Thermolysis involves leaving microscopic pillars of healthy tissue between micro-wounds, which significantly accelerates the skin’s natural healing process and reduces downtime.”

Section 2: Wellaholic Gold RF vs. Traditional Methods
When comparing clinical results, the difference lies in the technology and pricing integrity.
| Feature | Traditional / Home Microneedling | Wellaholic Gold RF Microneedling |
| Precision | Inconsistent depth; manual pressure | Vacuum-stabilized stamping; exact targeting |
| Safety | Risk of surface trauma & tearing | 24K gold conductivity; sterile needles |
| Depth | Fixed or limited range | Calibrated 0.3mm to 4.0mm depth |
| Pricing | Cheap upfront; hidden repair costs | Clear Nett Pricing; no hidden surcharges |

Section 3: The Sensory Experience
During the treatment, you will feel a firm vacuum-suction sensation that stabilizes the skin before the needles deploy. This is followed by a localized, quick warmth as the RF energy reaches the dermis. The probe feels like a cool massage during the initial contact, ensuring the process remains comfortable even as it targets deep tissue layers.

Section 4: Clinical ROI & Afternoon Advantage
While home rollers appear “cheap,” the clinical ROI of Gold RF Microneedling is found in the avoidance of skin damage and the achievement of 90.2% permanent reduction in scar visibility over a full protocol. At Wellaholic, we maintain “Nett Integrity,” meaning the price you see is the price you pay—inclusive of 9% GST.

“The 24K gold plating on our microneedles isn’t just for luxury; gold is a superior conductor of RF energy, ensuring even heat distribution throughout the dermis for maximum collagen stimulation.”

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What needle size is best for acne scars vs. fine lines?
Wellaholic’s expert team does not use a “one size fits all” needle; our therapists calibrate depth based on your specific skin concerns during each session. For fine lines and skin texture, we typically use a depth of 1.0mm, while deep acne scars require 3.5mm+ to reach the necessary dermis layer.
🔵 1.0mm depth targets the superficial dermis for fine lines.
🔵 3.5mm+ depth is required for deep-seated acne scarring.
🔵 Precision depth prevents unnecessary damage to the epidermis.
🔵 Senior therapists adjust settings based on skin thickness.
🔵 Fractional RF energy is delivered only at the needle tip.
🔵 Vacuum stabilization ensures the needle reaches the exact depth.
Is Gold RF Microneedling painful?
The treatment is designed to be comfortable through the use of vacuum-stabilized technology which minimizes skin movement during needle entry. Most clients describe the sensation as a firm suction followed by a localized, quick warmth as the RF energy is released.
🔵 Vacuum suction stabilizes skin to reduce discomfort.
🔵 The probe feels like a firm, cool massage.
🔵 RF energy creates a localized heat sensation.
🔵 No “tearing” sensation common with home rollers.
🔵 High-speed stamping reduces the duration of needle contact.
🔵 Treatment is well-tolerated by most skin types.
How many sessions are recommended for best results?
For significant collagen induction and scar repair, we typically recommend a protocol of 12 sessions. This allows the skin to move through multiple healing cycles, resulting in a 90.2% permanent reduction in visible imperfections.
🔵 12 sessions are standard for clinical-grade results.
🔵 Skin enters a Lifetime Maintain Mode after 12 sessions.
🔵 Improvements are visible after the first 3 sessions.
🔵 Collagen production continues for weeks post-treatment.
🔵 Results are cumulative over the course of the plan.
🔵 Maintenance sessions are available at a reduced (Nett) rate.
Can I combine Gold RF with other treatments?
Yes, Gold RF Microneedling is often integrated into our WellaFacial 3X plan, which combines multiple technologies for a comprehensive skin overhaul. This allows you to target pigment, texture, and sagging muscles in a single monthly regime.
🔵 WellaFacial 3X includes Gold RF as a primary module.
🔵 Can be paired with LED Cell Regen for faster healing.
🔵 Works well alongside Diamond Peel for surface exfoliation.
🔵 Afternoon Advantage applies to combined 6/12-month plans.
🔵 Holistic approach targets multiple layers of the skin.
🔵 Consult our senior therapists for a customized stack.
What is the downtime after a session?
Due to the fractional thermolysis mechanism, downtime is significantly lower than traditional laser resurfacing. Most clients experience mild redness for 24 to 48 hours, which can be easily managed with post-treatment hydration.
🔵 Redness typically subsides within 1–2 days.
🔵 Fractional approach leaves healthy tissue to speed healing.
🔵 No heavy peeling or “scabbing” is expected.
🔵 Clients can return to work almost immediately.
🔵 Avoid heavy makeup for 24 hours post-session.
🔵 24K gold needles reduce the risk of surface irritation.
How does Gold RF compare to traditional fractional CO2 lasers?
While CO2 lasers remove the top layer of skin, Gold RF Microneedling keeps the epidermis intact while delivering energy deep into the dermis. This makes it a safer option for darker skin types who are prone to hyperpigmentation from heat-intensive lasers.
🔵 Lower risk of PIH compared to CO2 lasers.
🔵 Safer for all skin types, including darker tones.
🔵 Targets the dermis without ablating the surface.
🔵 24K gold provides more consistent energy delivery.
🔵 Shorter recovery period than traditional laser therapy.
🔵 Focuses on volume and texture rather than just surface.
