Vivace® Radiofrequency
(RF) Microneedling
Radiofrequency for Wrinkles and Lines
The treatment is successful when it comes to tightening and rejuvenating loose skin. It targets the skin’s deeper layers, helping to stimulate the production of new collagen. This helps with tackling any emerging frown lines, laughter lines, and crow’s feet, which tend to be linked with ageing skin.
Radiofrequency for Sagging Jowls
This treatment can also be used to help treat the appearance of sagging jowls, helping to tighten the skin and add definition to the jawline, creating a much younger-looking appearance. Smaller handpieces have been developed specifically in order to follow the face’s delicate contours. Radiofrequency energy can be used to smooth and tighten the skin around jowls and the cheeks.
The Radiofrequency (RF) Skin Tightening and Contouring Treatment
In terms of the procedure, it is important to make sure you are not wearing any skincare products or makeup before the application of the RF device. If you do turn up with makeup on, we will provide you with cleanser to remove this. The treatment can then be carried out. You can sit and relax while we apply the pad to the treatment area. Most of product contain local anesthetic but some don’t. A numbing cream can be applied before to improve the comfort during the injection. The procedure takes between 15 and 30 minutes depending on which areas are treated. A massage of the area will be performed to make sure the product is well placed.

-
Does it hurt?While everyone experiences different levels of pain, you may feel some discomfort and needle stick pain.
-
Are there any side effects?There may be some swelling or bruising for a few days. The results commonly improve over time, as the swelling subsides, and the filler settles more naturally – this process often takes up to 2 weeks.
-
Am I suitable for Fillers treatment?This treatment is not suitable for anyone who is pregnant, breastfeeding or has severe allergic reactions
-
Fillers Aftercare?The following may assist with recovery and results: Following the instructions provided by our specialists before and after your treatment Stay upright following your treatment for 3-4 hours Avoid sleeping for 3-4 hours after the treatment (to avoid pressing the treated area) Take arnica supplements and apply arnica cream Avoid strenuous exercise following the treatment Limit your sun exposure Apply a cold compress to the treated area Avoid facial treatments or other treatments on the area Should you experience any symptoms, notify us so we can best assist you. To maintain the effect of your treatment, you will require further follow ups.
-
When will I see results?Most patients will notice immediate results following their filler treatment. However, note that it can take 7-10 days to notice the final results, which is when any potential bruising, swelling or redness subsides.
-
How long do the results last?This will depend on your own metabolism. Some people will break down the fillers more quickly than others. A general rule of thumb is that fillers typically last longer in the areas that move the least – such as cheeks, in comparison to lips, which may last a little less time. To maintain the effectiveness of your Fillers treatment, you will require further follow-ups, but you can expect your cheek fillers to last for 6 months and more.

What are the benefits of Fillers?Quick – most treatments take approximately 30 minutes to perform. Faster and more effective than creams – the treatment results are much faster than those achieved when using skincare. Long-lasting results – whilst long-lasting, most fillers are not permanent and are reversible.
