Even common aesthetic treatments can feel like they’re shrouded in mystery. As someone who has never stepped into a medspa, you undoubtedly have questions. Will treatments take long? Can they ruin my skin? Do I need multiple sessions? – these are just some of the questions we address when it comes to our Vivace® RF Microneedling treatments.
Information is, of course, provided during initial consultations, but some people prefer to be well informed before they arrive at our Upper East Side office. We’ve scoured the internet and found some of the most common questions people have about Vivace®. Below are your questions and our answers, provided to help you feel comfortable for your next appointment. For more info, get in touch and set up a visit to JTAV Clinical Skincare today.
Is Vivace® Better Than Microneedling?
Microneedling is a tried and true method of improving your skin. The reason people like this treatment so much is that it isn’t surgical, and it often doesn’t rely on chemicals to promote rejuvenation. The process uses tiny microneedles to damage the surface of the skin and stimulate natural healing.
With Vivace® this process gets an upgrade. Vivace® adds the bonus of radiofrequency energy into the mix. This RF energy improves collagen stimulation, essentially doubling your skin’s healing potential. This gives you greater results and at a faster rate than traditional microneedling.
How Long Does Vivace® RF Microneedling Take to Kick in?
Some treatments are instantaneous, others take weeks to show results. Vivace® RF Microneedling is somewhere in the middle. After your visit, you should see an improvement in your skin within a few days. The good news is that these improvements continue over the course of several weeks.
This gradual improvement comes at a low cost. That’s because Vivace® treatments require little downtime after the procedure. In most cases, you can expect to return to your normal daily activities after a day following your session.
How Long Does Vivace® RF Last?
Everyone is always curious about the outcome of their treatments. The truth is, people are different and everyone reacts to the treatment differently. The common element is that the collagen and elastin stimulated by this procedure will be produced at an accelerated rate over the course of six months after the session.
In most cases, results last for a few years, though this will vary depending on the number of treatments and number of touch-up treatments that a patient chooses. Those who get routine touch-up treatments report long-term results.
Is Vivace® RF Microneedling Worth It?
Absolutely! Vivace® RF Microneedling treatments are an excellent option for those new to aesthetics and those who have tried treatments in the past. These procedures are non-surgical and therefore don’t cause extended downtime.
Moreover, unlike laser treatments, microneedling and RF treatments can treat most skin tones and types, including tanned or dark skin. This gives Vivace® treatments a major advantage over other non-invasive skincare procedures.
