Post-Treatment Guide For Vivace RF Microneedling
What To Expect After Your Vivace Procedure
After undergoing the Vivace treatment at our med spa, here’s what you can expect during the post-treatment phase:
Mild Redness and Sensitivity: It is normal to experience mild redness and sensitivity in the treated area immediately after the Vivace procedure. Sensitivity is temporary and should subside within a few hours to a day, while some redness and peeling will often continue for 1-3 days.
Possibility of Swelling: Some individuals may experience slight swelling in the treated area, particularly if it involves sensitive skin. This is a normal response to the treatment and should diminish within a few hours.
Minor Discomfort: During the Vivace treatment, you may experience a mild level of discomfort, which can feel like a slight pricking or tingling sensation. However, any discomfort is usually well-tolerated by most individuals. A topical numbing cream will be applied beforehand to minimize any potential discomfort.
Avoid Harsh Skincare Products: To promote healing and protect the treated skin, it is recommended to avoid using harsh skincare products, including those containing strong chemicals, exfoliants, or active ingredients like retinol or acids for 10-14 days. Stick to gentle cleansers and moisturizers as recommended by your skincare provider.
Sun Protection: Protecting your skin from direct sunlight is crucial after the Vivace treatment. Avoid prolonged sun exposure and apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF whenever you go outdoors.
Proper Skincare: Your skincare provider will provide specific post-treatment skincare instructions. It is important to follow these instructions diligently to promote healing and maximize the results of the Vivace treatment. This may include using gentle cleansers, applying soothing moisturizers, and avoiding harsh or abrasive products.
Minimal Downtime: One of the benefits of the Vivace treatment is that it typically involves minimal downtime. Most individuals can resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure.
When Should I Expect to See Results?
The results of the Vivace treatment can be noticeable soon after the procedure, with further improvements over time. However, individual results may vary. Here is a general timeline for when you may expect to see results:
Immediate Benefits: You may notice an immediate improvement in skin tightness and texture following the Vivace treatment. The treatment stimulates collagen production, leading to immediate skin tightening effects.
Progressive Results: Over the following weeks and months, collagen remodeling and regeneration will continue to enhance your skin’s appearance. You can expect improvements in skin texture, reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, and overall skin rejuvenation.
Optimal Results: The full benefits of the Vivace treatment typically become more apparent within 3 to 6 months as collagen production continues and the skin continues to improve.
Keep in mind that individual responses to the Vivace treatment may vary based on factors such as skin condition, age, and lifestyle. Your skincare provider will provide a personalized assessment and guide you through the expected timeline for results based on your unique circumstances.
