What Is Vivace RF Microneedling?
Skin concerns like rough texture, enlarged pores, acne scars, and fine lines may seem like surface issues, but the changes that cause them often start underneath. As we get older, our skin's natural production of collagen and elastin starts to decline, causing shifts that can't be addressed with skin care products alone. Vivace RF (radiofrequency) microneedling at Avalon Laser treats both the surface and the deeper layers of your skin at the same time, encouraging healthy renewal and a smoother, firmer look and feel over time. Using fine, insulated needles paired with advanced RF energy, Vivace creates thousands of microchannels in the skin's surface, breaking up visible concerns while stimulating collagen growth for natural-looking results that continue to improve in the weeks and months after your treatment. Experience a higher level of skin care by scheduling an appointment at our San Diego, Carlsbad, or Encinitas, CA med spa and learning more about Vivace RF microneedling for facial rejuvenation.
How Is Vivace RF Microneedling Performed?
Before starting, one of our cosmetic dermatologists will apply numbing cream to your skin to maximize comfort during your RF microneedling procedure. Once you're ready, they'll pass the Vivace microneedling tool over the treatment area, creating microscopic channels in the surface using a grid of ultra-fine, insulated needles. These "micro-injuries" help activate your body's natural repair response while creating openings for topical serums to penetrate deep into the tissue.
As the needles reach the appropriate depth, they'll deliver controlled radiofrequency energy into the deeper layers of the skin. This gentle heat stimulates collagen and elastin production where the skin's structural support is formed. While the microneedling process encourages healthy skin renewal near the surface, the added radiofrequency energy promotes firmer, smoother skin as collagen continues rebuilding over time. Before you leave, we'll apply skin care serums to the treatment area, including Vivace's Sooth Recovery System, to help with the recovery process and stimulate revitalization.

Vivace® RF Microneedling Reviews
Came into this place with acne scars and have been treating microneedling for it. Sophie is extremely knowledgeable and Raiza does a fantastic job with my Botox. Everyone should come here!
I had my first microneedling session with Rhea and had such a great experience! She was so kind, informative, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. I had concerns about scarring, and she took the time to address them honestly and explain why multiple sessions would be needed. I also loved that she helped me put together a new skincare routine tailored to my skin. I left feeling informed, confident, and excited to see my results. Highly recommend!
I have been to Avalon Laser a few times, specifically their Carlsbad & San Diego offices. The offices are spotless and offer a modern & warm ambiance. The staff is professional, welcoming and accommodating. Each time I’ve called to change my treatment date, time or what I wanted to have done all together they (Jessica & Mallory who I’ve spoken with) have been able to accommodate. I initially went in to get a Vivace (microneedling RF) treatment done. My nurse, Raiza, went over my concerns and why I wanted to get Vivace done. She reviewed other treatments that may/may not be recommended for the concerns I have. I was very comfortable during my session and she made sure to voice whenever she thought the treatment might cause some stinging. She made sure all my questions and concerns were addressed and never pushy in offering any other treatments. I actually scheduled the appointment for a different treatment add on but backed out at the last minute and after talking with her and being educated as to why said treatment was not recommended I felt completely confident in my decision. She is extremely knowledgeable. Even though I live over an hour away I will continue to go to Avalon Laser for my beauty treatment needs because I trust them in their knowledge of services offered. I also love that they are open Saturdays as my work schedule can usually only accommodate some weekends. Of other places I’ve been to Avalon Laser is by far the best. With a wide range of treatments offered and staff who know what they’re doing I won’t go anywhere else!
Highly recommend this med spa! The staff is amazing. I’ve had treatments with Sophia and Briana, and both are incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and welcoming. I’ve had a wonderful experience at Avalon with laser hair removal, microneedling, and the diamond glow facial which was absolutely incredible. I always feel well taken care of and couldn’t be happier with my results. Highly recommend!
I love this place so much!. I had a lot of acne scars and needed some guidance from Dr.Trigari on how to proceed. He advised me to start with the microneedling sessions. I had so many microneedling sessions, around 12-13 with Laura and I saw a huge difference within 6 months of consistency. Laura is very professional and knows what she is doing. I also started getting CO2 laser to help with the deeper scars. I got my second CO2 laser with Morgan, she is an angel and she is absolutely wonderful. I also got to meet Sophie today and she is very sweet. She helped me a lot with choosing the right products for my skin and scheduling my appointments. I had referred so many people to them, and they never disappoint.I love coming to this place because the doctor and the staff are very professional and they really do care about their patients. Their office is so clean and so comfy.I am so happy to see they are opening new offices in different locations. Best of luck and hopefully you guys open centers across the country.

Frequently Asked Questions about Vivace RF Microneedling
What is Vivace RF microneedling and how is it different from regular microneedling?
Vivace RF microneedling combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency energy. Like regular microneedling, it creates controlled microchannels that stimulate your skin's natural repair process. Vivace also delivers radiofrequency energy beneath the surface through the needles, encouraging additional collagen and elastin production while promoting firmer, smoother skin over time.
What concerns can Vivace RF microneedling address?
Vivace RF microneedling is commonly used to improve fine lines, uneven skin texture, acne scars, enlarged pores, mild skin laxity, and overall skin quality. Because it stimulates collagen remodeling beneath the surface, it can also help improve skin firmness while creating a smoother, more refreshed complexion.
Is Vivace RF microneedling painful?
Before treatment, we'll apply a topical numbing cream to maximize your comfort. Most people describe feeling a sensation of mild pressure and warmth during their RF microneedling procedure rather than pain. Because the needles are very fine and the treatment is carefully controlled, Vivace is generally well tolerated.
What is the downtime after Vivace RF?
You can expect redness and mild swelling for the first 24 – 48 hours, but any downtime is typically minimal. Depending on the treatment intensity, you may also notice minor dryness or roughness as your skin renews itself over the following several days. We'll discuss what you can expect as you recover and provide guidelines on when to resume your normal skin care routine.
How many Vivace RF treatments will I need?
Most people achieve the best results possible with a series of 3 – 4 treatments spaced several weeks apart. The ideal number depends on your skin concerns, treatment goals, and how your skin responds. During your consultation, we'll recommend a treatment schedule that's tailored to your needs and explain when you can expect to see continued improvement as collagen remodeling progresses.
Experience Rejuvenation Inside and Out
Some skin concerns become visible on the surface, while others begin much deeper within the skin itself. Vivace RF microneedling at Avalon Laser addresses both during a single treatment, helping renew your complexion while supporting the collagen that keeps your skin looking firm and healthy.
