Microneedling is a popular beauty treatment worldwide for rejuvenating the face, skin, and body to address signs of aging. The Vivace Experience® takes it a step further. Vivace Ultra™, the latest FDA-cleared generation of radio frequency microneedling, combines traditional microneedling, uniform RF energy, ultrasound visualization, and photo mapping. This combination allows for personalized aesthetic beauty treatments and a rejuvenated glow.*
Skin Prepping. Before the treatment, the provider will prepare the patient’s skin. First, using a gentle cleanser your provider will remove excess makeup and debris from the skin’s surface. Then the provider will apply a topical numbing cream (topical anesthetic cream) to the patientʼs targeted treatment area(s) for 30-45 minutes. The numbing cream will aid in ensuring the patient is comfortable and virtually pain-free during their treatment. Lastly, the provider will wipe the patient’s skin down with water-soaked gauze or a baby wipe and alcohol to ensure the treatment area is sterile and dry before treating.
Skin Mapping. The provider will use the Vivace Ultra™ ‘Vision Handpiece’ in conjunction with gel to virtually map the layers of the skin and select custom treatment settings for each treatment area.
Microneedling & Radiofrequency
Once the provider has established optimal treatment settings and the appropriate needle sets, the treatment will begin. The device combines microneedling and radiofrequency treatments into a single treatment that provides the benefits of both. The Vivace® Microneedle RF device is FDA-cleared and can treat from light to dark skin types. During the treatment, the microneedling practitioner will use the Vivace Ultra™ microneedling device enabling the ‘Precision RF’ Handpiece to gently insert gold-plated microneedles into the patient’s skin to create collagen-stimulating, micro-injuries. As the needles create micro channels, radiofrequency energy will flow through the needles, stimulating rapid healing.The provider will do 2-3 passes depending on the treatment area(s). Vivace Ultra™ has a series of specially designed features to ensure the patient’s safety and comfort.

One of the major advantages of the Vivace Ultra™ and Vivace Experience® compared to traditional microneedling is a faster recovery period.* After the procedure, patients may experience minor redness or swelling in the treatment area. However, this will subside quickly and should be less significant compared to traditional microneedling.* Unlike other microneedling treatments, skin redness will not be a significant concern thanks to our specialized Soothing Mask and specially formulated Boost Serum.*
