Prior to treatment, the patient’s skin is prepared with a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort. During the procedure, the patient may feel a light pressure on the skin, but no pain should be
experienced. Immediately following treatment, the skin may be slightly flushed and feel warm to the touch, similar to a mild sunburn.
A majority of patients are able to resume their normal routines post-procedure and most see immediate improvements in their skin. As the body continues to produce new collagen, the skin will
continue to improve, with full results of the treatment visible after 12 weeks.
Additional Vivace® Microneedling treatments spaced four to six weeks apart are recommended to further improve results. Based on your skin goals and the current state of your skin, your skin care professional can recommend a customized treatment plan for the best results.
