Vivace treatment combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. The procedure involves the use of a device applied to the skin surface while delivering RF energy. This approach may be considered for concerns such as lines or scarring. More than one session may be required, and outcomes vary between patients.

During Vivace treatment, a device is applied to the skin surface while radiofrequency (RF) energy is delivered at the same time. The method combines two approaches in one session. Outcomes vary between patients.
