What is Vivace?

As we age, we all want to look natural and graceful without appearing too done up. The good news is that there's now a simple, non-invasive treatment for tackling fine lines and wrinkles, so you can confidently head out for dinner on the same evening. The Vivace Experience® combines microneedling and radiofrequency energy with a special serum and cooling mask to reduce wrinkles and fine lines, providing quick results with minimal downtime and discomfort.

The Science Behind Vivace

Vivace merges radiofrequency and microneedling procedures to enhance skin quality. Radiofrequency treatments utilize heat to stimulate collagen production, reducing fine lines and wrinkles. When combined with advanced microneedling, this method maximizes outcomes by refining the skin's overall look and feel.

Vivace Candidates

The FDA has cleared Vivace, guaranteeing its safety for a diverse range of individuals. Unlike laser treatments, microneedling and RF procedures can effectively address various skin tones and types, including tanned or darker skin.

These treatments are perfect for individuals looking to address concerns such as:

  • Wrinkles and fine lines
  • Creases on the forehead, chin, and around the nose and mouth
  • Dull spots
  • Uneven texture patches
  • Enlarged pores
  • Loose or sagging skin on the face and neck
  • Acne scars
  • Stretch marks

Vivace Benefits

  • Boosts collagen production to promote firmer, smoother skin
  • Diminishes fine lines and wrinkles
  • Enhances skin texture and tone
  • Shrinks pore size
  • Improves skin elasticity
  • Diminishes acne scars and other types of scarring
  • Fosters overall skin rejuvenation
  • Presents a non-surgical alternative for skin tightening
  • Involves minimal downtime in comparison to traditional treatments
  • Facilitates both surface skin resurfacing and deeper tissue remodeling
  • Pairs well with LED light therapy, featuring anti-inflammatory red light or bacteria-fighting blue light

Vivace Procedure

A Vivace treatment is intended to be swift and comfortable. It typically lasts 60 to 90 minutes, allowing patients to promptly resume their regular daily activities.

The treatment typically commences with a gentle numbing cream, which takes 30 to 45 minutes to become effective. Once the numbing cream has taken effect, patients are positioned in a relaxed, reclined posture for the Vivace treatment. The handheld wand is then activated, and the provider maneuvers it over the targeted area. Some patients may experience mild pressure and a warming sensation during the treatment, which usually lasts about 30 minutes.

Maximize Your Skincare Benefits with Treatment Serums and Recovery Care

Optimal Treatment Serum: The Boost Serum is a triple-peptide glide serum containing naturally occurring amino acids Adiponin and Syndermin. These potent tripeptides provide advanced skincare benefits and serve as the foundation for healthy skin. The Boost Glide Serum is a specially formulated lubricating gel for use during treatments or at home, enhancing the patient experience and promoting immediate successful outcomes. It can be applied daily by hand with just a few drops.

Optimal Treatment Mask: The Soothe Mask is an innovative product that blends Binterin (CD99) peptides with a cooling fluid for procedures, microneedling, and peels. It can easily be incorporated into your regular skincare routine. Simply place the mask on your face, adjusting it for your eyes, nose, and mouth, and then relax for 10 to 20 minutes. After removing the mask, massage any remaining product into your neck and hands.

Recovery and Results

Following your treatment, shielding your skin from intense sunlight or heat for the initial two days is essential. Your cosmetic medicine provider will provide detailed instructions for treating your healing skin. A series of treatments, typically three sessions spaced three to four weeks apart, are often advised for optimal results.

After completing your treatment plan, you should observe diminished wrinkles and more taut, firmer-looking skin. The duration of the results varies for each individual but generally lasts for at least six months. You can often prolong the results with a healthy lifestyle, appropriate skin care, and essential maintenance treatments.

Is Microneedling Painful?

Patients receiving the Vivace® treatment should experience minimal discomfort. To ensure a comfortable experience, a numbing cream is applied 30 to 45 minutes before the treatment. Numerous patient testimonials depict the treatment as ranging from comfortable to virtually pain-free. The Vivace® Microneedle RF was intentionally crafted with patient comfort as a top priority.

How Can I Choose the Right Treatment for Me?

When contemplating a cosmetic skin treatment, it is crucial to arrange a consultation with one of our physicians or aesthetic providers. Collaborating with a trusted provider who utilizes FDA-cleared devices like Vivace® will give you confidence in your treatment's safety and reliability. Expect a comfortable patient experience that yields excellent results.

RF microneedling is only one part of the process. The appropriate serums and recovery system can enhance your results by improving your skin tone and texture. These serums and procedures are accessible through our physicians and aesthetic providers.

How Many Vivace Experience® Treatments Do I Need?

Your provider will determine the specific treatment protocols for you. Many providers have discovered that three treatments, spaced four to six weeks apart, yield the optimal results patients desire. Some providers offer single and maintenance treatments tailored to your desired outcome.

Additional treatments may be available upon request. For more personalized details, consult with your provider.

How Long Does a Vivace® RF Microneedling Treatment Take?

The pre-treatment numbing process typically lasts 30 to 45 minutes and takes about 45 minutes for the face. Therefore, the total treatment time usually ranges from one hour to an hour and a half.

Can I Wear Makeup After My Vivace® Microneedling Treatments?

Patients are advised to avoid applying makeup for at least six hours, with waiting until the next day being the suggested timeline. To improve Vivace® microneedling results, patients can utilize our Soothe Mask and Boost Serum during the initial four to six hours, reducing redness and achieving enhanced results in a shorter duration.

How Can I Maximize Results from Vivace® Microneedling Treatments?

For the best results, start with the appropriate device, treatment serum, and recovery system, accessible through our reliable physician and provider partners. Upon returning home, adhere to your provider's recommended post-care instructions.

We suggest integrating the Soothe Mask and the Boost Serum. By using these in conjunction with avoiding direct sunlight and refraining from intense physical activity for twenty-four hours, you can optimize the Vivace Experience®. Multiple treatments are recommended for optimal results.

What Types of Skin Does Microneedling Work On?

Unlike laser treatments, microneedling and RF treatments can effectively address various skin tones and types, including tanned or dark skin. This distinction sets Vivace® treatments apart from other non-invasive skincare procedures.

How Long Do the Results Last?

Although each person's outcomes differ, the generated collagen and elastin continue to boost production over the following six months.

Most patients notice results lasting for several years, depending on the number of treatments and chosen touch-up treatments. Those who undergo regular touch-up treatments frequently report long-term results.

How Long Does Recovery Take After Microneedling?

Most patients can return to all regular activities within a day or two. Using serums and recovery protocols that support optimal results and a faster recovery can expedite this process. Most patients should avoid direct sunlight for a week following treatment. Nonetheless, many patients are often prepared to resume their usual activities within a day or two without any visible signs of having undergone a cosmetic procedure.
