What is Radiofrequency Microneedling?
Vivace™ is a minimally-invasive aesthetic treatment designed to revitalize your skin and combat signs of aging. It combines two powerful technologies:
- Microneedling: Tiny needles create micro-channels in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing process and collagen production.
- Radiofrequency (RF) energy: This gentle energy delivers heat deep into the skin, further stimulating collagen and elastin production, leading to tighter, smoother skin.
How Radiofrequency Microneedling Works?
1. Microneedling:
Imagine tiny needles creating microscopic “channels” in your skin. These channels are like tiny pathways, opening the door for deeper treatment and stimulating your body’s natural healing response. As your skin repairs these channels, it boosts collagen production, a key protein that keeps your skin firm and youthful.
2. Radiofrequency (RF) Energy:
Think of RF energy as gentle heat waves delivered through the needles. This heat further stimulates collagen and elastin production deeper within your skin. Collagen provides firmness, while elastin adds bounce and elasticity. This deeper stimulation also helps tighten existing collagen fibers, leading to a smoother, more lifted appearance.
Benefits of Vivace RF Microneedling:
- Reduced fine lines and wrinkles: Achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance.
- Improved skin tone and texture: Say goodbye to uneven texture and hello to a radiant glow.
- Enhanced collagen production: Build a firmer, more elastic foundation for your skin.
- Minimized pores: Experience tighter, smoother pores for a refined complexion.
- Reduced acne scars and stretch marks: Improve the appearance of these concerns for a more even tone.
- Safe for all skin types: Vivace is suitable for most skin types, thanks to adjustable needle depths and energy levels.
Is there any downtime?
The downtime associated with Vivace™ Microneedling is minimal compared to other microneedling treatments, making it a popular choice for those seeking visible results without major disruption to their daily routines. Here’s what you can expect:
- Immediately after treatment: You may experience mild redness, flushing, or tightness in the treated area. This is normal and usually subsides within a few hours.
- Within the first 24 hours: The redness and tightness may persist, but they should be manageable and improve gradually. You should avoid strenuous exercise, hot showers, saunas, and swimming to allow your skin to heal properly. You can apply gentle makeup 24-48 hours after the treatment, depending on your skin’s sensitivity.
- Within the first week: The redness and any minor swelling should be gone. You may experience some flaking or peeling as your skin sheds the treated layer and reveals new, healthier skin underneath. You should continue to avoid harsh skincare products and sun exposure.
