VIVACE Microneedling

Has it started to feel like the natural aging process is your biggest enemy when it comes to skincare? Are you frustrated with the effects time, lifestyle choices, and environmental factors have made on your appearance, but a surgical procedure does not feel like the best fit for you? It may feel skin rejuvenation is impossible for you to achieve, but Vivace Microneedling RF is an exciting treatment that makes it possible. This dynamic treatment combines microneedling with the power of radiofrequency to stimulate collagen and elastin production for tighter, smoother skin for a refreshed appearance.

What Is Vivace Microneedling RF?

Vivaceโ„ข Microneedling RF is a unique device that allows for radiofrequency-delivered microneedling treatments. This platform can help reduce the appearance of:

  • Dull or uneven skin tone or texture

  • Enlarged pores

  • Fine lines and wrinkles

  • Loose skin

Vivace Microneedling RF creates channels on the skin and delivers a gentle warmth via radiofrequency. This stimulates collagen and elastin production, creating new tissues to support the skin. Collagen and elastin naturally occur within the body to provide structure to the skin, but production naturally declines over time.

What Can I Expect From a Vivace Procedure?

Vivace Microneedling RF treatments are performed as outpatient treatments in the comfort of our New York office. During a session, a handheld device is used for microchannel creation on the skin. As channels are created, radiofrequency energy is delivered to the treatment area. There is little to no pain associated with treatment, but a numbing agent may be available for your additional comfort. Treatment sessions typically last an hour or less, and it is important to be mindful as the treatment area heals and take particular care of your skin. Vivace Microneedling RF is one of the most versatile technologies, and downtime will vary from a few hours to a few days based on your condition and desired results. Our clinical staff will provide you with all of the information you may need depending on your unique goals. Results achieved with Vivace Microneedling RF will vary for each person and concern addressed. While you may experience some initial results, the best results may take time to enjoy as your body produces new collagen and elastin. A series of regular treatments is typically recommended to achieve and maintain the best results.

Radiofrequency microneedling is an effective treatment for skin conditions like festoons. It has the ability to deliver targeted heat and tighten skin with minimal downtime, despite recent FDA warnings circulating on social media.

By precisely extracting thousands of microscopic skin columns, the surrounding tissue contracts and heals naturally, creating a smoother, tighter appearance without surgery or visible scarring.โ€จ
Unlike traditional energy-based microneedling, Ellacor does not use heat, radiofrequency, or laser energy to stimulate collagen. Instead, it achieves actual skin removal and tightening through mechanical precision, reducing laxity and fine lines more effectively and with less downtime.
โ€จThis scarless skin removal technology can be used on multiple body areas, including the face, neck, and dรฉcolletage, offering patients a powerful alternative to more invasive procedures as the demand for natural-looking, nonsurgical rejuvenation continues to grow.โ€จ

โ€จEllacor stands apart in the landscape of skin-tightening treatments with its innovative method of fractional micro-coring. Unlike microneedling, which creates micro-punctures to trigger healing, Ellacor actually removes tiny columns of skin, directly addressing areas of laxity. This makes it an appealing choice for patients who want to avoidโ€”or delayโ€”surgical procedures.
โ€จItโ€™s also an excellent option for those who have previously had surgery but are left with residual sagging or excess skin. Ellacor can refine and enhance those results without requiring further invasive intervention.
โ€จThis versatile treatment can be applied to multiple areas of both the face and body, allowing for tailored skin tightening solutions that address specific patient concerns. As a result, Ellacor serves as a compelling alternative to traditional surgical methods, providing a way to achieve firmer, smoother skin with minimal downtime and discomfort.

โ€จNurse Jen provides an in-depth overview of the Ultherapy Prime device, an innovative advancement in non-surgical skin lifting. This updated technology enhances treatment with improved visualization of tissue layers and significantly reduced treatment times compared to earlier versions of Ultherapy.โ€จ
The procedure uses micro-focused ultrasound energy to penetrate deep into the skin, stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastinโ€”the proteins responsible for firmness and elasticity.โ€จ
At PFRANKMD, Ultherapy is used on multiple areas where skin laxity is most common, including the lower face, neck, submentum (under the chin), dรฉcolletage, abdomen (for patients not candidates for a tummy tuck), and above the knees.
โ€จNurse Jen particularly enjoys treating the abdominal area, where Ultherapy can be combined with Morpheus8 or microneedling for enhanced results. This synergistic approach not only improves tightness but also refines texture and overall skin quality.

With its versatility and efficiency, the Ultherapy Prime device represents a major advancement in non-invasive aestheticsโ€”making it a go-to option for patients seeking natural lifting and tightening without surgery or downtime.

Tumescent microlipo is a highly refined, minimally invasive technique that uses very small, delicate instruments to gently and precisely remove fat. This meticulous approach allows for superior control, smoother contours, and minimal trauma to surrounding tissueโ€”resulting in less bruising, reduced downtime, and a more comfortable, accelerated recovery.

At PFRANKMD, we often combine our tumescent microlipo procedure with advanced internal skin-tightening technologies such as FaceTite, BodyTite, and Morpheus8 surgical microneedling. These synergistic modalities not only sculpt the face and body but also stimulate collagen production and improve skin laxity from the inside outโ€”providing natural-looking, long-lasting results without the need for traditional surgery.

I often say, โ€œItโ€™s not about looking different. Itโ€™s about looking like the best version of yourself.โ€ By focusing on artistry, precision, and comprehensive aesthetic care, our microlipo technique is ideal for contouring small, targeted areasโ€”even in patients with low body fatโ€”while delivering holistic, pro-aging outcomes that align with our philosophy of aesthetic longevity and individualized care.

We talk about the anesthetic part of the jawline rejuvenation procedure, where the area is numbed, and the skin is separated from the muscle to create an easy-access space. We then perform the MicroLiposuction, FaceTite, and surgical microneedling component with Morpheus8 to further tighten the skin. The procedure is completed without any bruising or bleeding, and the patient should expect minimal discomfort and swelling, with visible results, as soon as the next day.

FaceTite is a breakthrough advancement in tumescent microlipo that uses radiofrequency energy beneath the skinโ€™s surface to melt fat, stimulate collagen, and tighten the skin โ€” all with minimal downtime.

Performed under local anesthesia only (similar to a dental procedure), this minimally invasive surgery allows for a comfortable experience and weekend recovery.

I often combine FaceTite with surgical microneedling, such as Morpheus8, to enhance skin texture along the lower face, chin, jawline, jowls, and neck. This synergistic treatment boosts results by improving both the contour and quality of the skin โ€” all in one session.

Youโ€™ll see an immediate difference, with optimal results continuing to improve between 1โ€“3 months post-treatment.
