What Is RF Microneedling?
Vivace® RF microneedling is one of the more exciting procedures we offer at Midwest Medical Weight Loss & Aesthetics, combining the rejuvenating power of microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to deliver lasting skin renewal. Just like traditional microneedling, Vivace RF treatments use fine needles to create microchannels in the skin, stimulating your body's natural repair response to diminish concerns like fine lines, acne scars, enlarged pores, skin laxity, and texture changes. What separates Vivace RF from other microneedling treatments is the addition of radiofrequency energy delivered beneath the surface, boosting collagen and elastin production to create a firmer, smoother, more refreshed appearance. Find out how Vivace RF microneedling can help you achieve meaningful skin rejuvenation without surgery by scheduling an appointment with our aesthetic providers in Orland Park or Frankfort, IL today.
How Is RF Microneedling Performed?
Following your consultation to determine whether you would benefit from RF microneedling, traditional microneedling, or one of our other nonsurgical aesthetic treatments, your provider will cleanse the treatment area and apply a topical numbing cream to keep you relaxed and comfortable. Once your skin is prepared, they will gently move the Vivace RF microneedling handpiece across the treatment area while the ultrafine needles and radiofrequency energy work together to promote skin repair and rejuvenation. Most patients find the procedure very comfortable and are able to resume their normal routine quickly, though we'll provide detailed aftercare instructions to protect your skin as it recovers. As your body starts to produce new collagen over the next few weeks, you should notice a gradual improvement in your skin's tone, texture, and overall health.
What Are the Benefits of RF Microneedling?
Instead of treating just one cosmetic concern, Vivace RF microneedling is designed to improve the overall condition of your skin. Every treatment is customized to your skin, allowing our providers to focus on the results that matter most to you.

Frequently Asked Questions about RF Microneedling
How does RF microneedling work?
RF microneedling combines tiny, sterile needles with radiofrequency energy to stimulate your body's natural healing response. The microchannels created by the needles encourage collagen production, while the added RF energy delivers heat beneath the skin to further support skin tightening and rejuvenation.
What makes Vivace RF microneedling different from standard microneedling?
Traditional microneedling relies on controlled micro-injuries to stimulate collagen production. Vivace builds on that process by adding radiofrequency energy to create controlled heat beneath the skin's surface, allowing treatment to address skin laxity, wrinkles, and texture more effectively while remaining comfortable and requiring minimal downtime.
How often should RF microneedling be performed?
Many patients achieve their best results with a series of 3 – 4 treatments spaced about 4 – 6 weeks apart. We may recommend occasional maintenance treatments after this initial series to help support continued collagen production and long-term skin rejuvenation.
What areas can be treated with RF microneedling?
Vivace is commonly used on the face, neck, and décolletage, but it can also treat other areas where skin laxity, acne scars, fine lines, or uneven texture are concerns. During your consultation, your provider will determine which areas are most appropriate for treatment.
What happens during a Vivace treatment?
A topical numbing cream will be applied before your appointment to help keep you comfortable throughout the procedure. A member of our team will then glide the Vivace device across the treatment area while the microneedles and radiofrequency energy work together beneath the skin. After your session, you may experience mild redness for a day or two before returning to your normal skin care routine.
Healthier Skin from Inside Out
By encouraging your body's own collagen production, Vivace RF microneedling helps create improvements that continue to develop long after your treatment has ended.
