Venus Viva™ Radiofrequency
At Northern Sydney Dermatology & Laser, we are proud to offer the Venus Viva™ NanoFractional Radiofrequency (RF) treatment, a cutting-edge option for skin resurfacing, rejuvenation, and tightening. Here’s everything you need to know about this innovative technology and how it can help improve your skin’s appearance.
What is Venus Viva™ and how does it work?
Venus Viva™ uses NanoFractional Radiofrequency (RF) technology to deliver energy deep into the skin. Unlike traditional lasers, which primarily target the skin's surface, radiofrequency penetrates the deeper layers of skin. The RF energy creates micro-channels in the skin that trigger the body’s natural healing response. This process stimulates collagen production and skin remodelling from the inside out, improving skin texture, tone, and elasticity.
How is Radiofrequency Different from Lasers?
While both RF and laser treatments can address skin issues, the key difference is the depth of treatment. Lasers use light energy that primarily targets the skin’s surface, making them ideal for conditions like pigmentation or surface-level scars. Radiofrequency, on the other hand, uses electrical energy that heats the deeper layers of the skin, which makes it better suited for collagen stimulation, improving skin laxity, and addressing deeper skin concerns like acne scars, wrinkles, and stretch marks.
What Skin Concerns Can Venus Viva™ Address?
Venus Viva™ is highly versatile and can treat a wide range of skin concerns, including:
Acne scars and other types of scarring
Fine lines and wrinkles
Enlarged pores
Uneven skin texture and pigmentation
Stretch marks and mild skin laxity.
What to Expect during the treatment
Each session typically lasts around 30 minutes, depending on the area being treated. The treatment involves using a hand-held device with tiny pins that deliver radiofrequency energy into the skin. You may feel a warm or mild pricking sensation, but the treatment is generally well tolerated with minimal discomfort.
Is there any downtime?
One of the major benefits of Venus Viva™ is that it has minimal downtime. After the procedure, your skin may appear slightly red and feel warm for a few hours, but most patients can return to their normal activities almost immediately. Any redness usually resolves within a day or two.
How soon will I see results?
Results from Venus Viva™ are cumulative. You may start to notice improvements in your skin texture and tone after just one session, but optimal results are typically seen after a series of treatments. Results will continue to improve over the weeks following your final treatment as collagen production increases.
