Who it is for
This treatment is suitable for individuals who want to improve skin firmness, reduce acne scars, or smooth uneven texture and tone. It is commonly recommended for people experiencing early signs of aging or mild skin laxity.
What you feel
Vivace uses a specialized robotic motor that helps minimize discomfort compared to traditional microneedling devices. A numbing cream is usually applied before the treatment to keep the procedure comfortable.
Results
The treatment stimulates the skin’s natural healing process and boosts collagen production. Results gradually appear within a few weeks and continue improving over time, typically peaking around 3–6 months. A series of 3–4 sessions is usually recommended for optimal results, leading to firmer, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin.
Popular questions
How long does it take?
The treatment usually takes about one hour, including preparation time.
How does the treatment work?
Vivace uses 36 gold-plated insulated needles controlled by a robotic motor to create tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin. At the same time, radiofrequency energy is delivered into the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and natural skin renewal.
Is the treatment painful?
Most people experience minimal discomfort. A numbing cream is applied before the procedure, and the robotic motor helps make the treatment smoother and more comfortable.
How many sessions are recommended?
A series of 3–4 sessions is typically recommended to achieve the best results. Your specialist may adjust this depending on your skin concerns.
Is there downtime?
Downtime is minimal. Most people return to normal daily activities the next day, although mild redness may appear shortly after the treatment.
What should I avoid after the treatment?
For about 24–48 hours, avoid strenuous exercise, heavy sweating, and direct sun exposure.
When is the best time to do the treatment?
The treatment is best performed during cooler months or when you can easily avoid strong, direct sun exposure for about 1–2 weeks after the session.
