A Complete Guide to Vivace Microneedling
We all want our skin to look natural. As we age and fine lines and wrinkles set in, we may start to feel like we don’t look at our best. The Vivace microneedling treatment is a simple way to age naturally, beautifully, and elegantly without the need for surgery.
It is a minimally invasive, non-surgical option design with patient comfort in mind.
WHAT IS VIVACE MICRONEEDLING?
The Vivace microneedling procedure is classified as a skin rejuvenation treatment that combines the use of advanced microneedling technology, radiofrequency energy, and LED light therapy to trigger your skin’s natural repair process.
The Vivace microneedling procedure outperforms traditional microneedling due to this cutting-edge technology.
The advanced microneedling technology uses superfine, gold-tipped needles. These are designed to be very precise, offering an unparalleled treatment process with minimal discomfort and maximum control.
The radiofrequency energy is used to stimulate additional collagen and elastin production. This will help ramp up the results and longevity of the procedure.
The LED light therapy is also used to reduce post-treatment inflammation, swelling, redness, and tenderness. This helps reduce the amount of time that you see skin discoloration.
The treatment induces your skin’s natural repair process by creating very precise, micro-injuries to the skin. This signals the skin to begin healing the injured area, and it kick-starts the body’s collagen and elastin production.
“The result is a reduction in fine lines, wrinkles, pore size, and scarring. It will also improve your skin tone, texture, and tightness.”

WHAT DOES THE TREATMENT FEEL LIKE?
The device contains 36 needles, of which you may only feel 1-2 during each pulse of the handheld device. You may feel some needle prick sensations in areas where the skin is thinner, like the upper lip or on scars, but otherwise, the treatment is virtually pain-free for maintenance treatments.
If you are going with a more aggressive skin rejuvenation treatment, you may feel some minor pain, but there is pre-treatment numbing gel given and post-procedure serum provided to reduce inflammation.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE TREATMENT
Make sure that your skin is clean, free from open wounds, infections, or makeup.
WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER THE TREATMENT?
Most individuals will leave with minimal to zero redness or pain. Skin is generally bright, tight, and shiny afterward, with results improving for the next 3-6 months. There is no downtime with the treatment, so you can go right back to your planned day.
Just do not put anything on your face for 6-hours after treatment, as this would clog the micro-channels and compromise your skin’s ability to heal.
ANY SIDE EFFECTS?
You may experience limited swelling, redness, pinpoint bleeding, or minor scabbing. These are temporary and will resolve over a few days.
HOW LONG DO THE RESULTS LAST FOR?
For most individuals, results will last 6-months after the final treatment session.
“The number of treatment sessions depends on your skin profile and end goal, with most needing 3-6 treatment sessions total.“
