VENUS VIVA -
NANO FRACTION SKIN RESURFACING TREATMENT
what is venus viva nano fractional resurfacing?
Technology: Uses Nano‑Fractional RF — very small “pins” (electrodes) deliver radiofrequency energy into the skin, creating controlled micro‑injuries.
SmartScan™: The device uses a scan pattern technology so the energy delivery is very controlled and customizable.
Dual Effects: You get a mix of ablation (micro-wounds) and coagulation (heat) — this stimulates collagen production and skin remodeling.
Applicators / Tips: There are different “pin” tips (e.g. 160-pin) that can be adjusted for energy density, how deep or aggressive the treatment is.
Treatment Areas: Commonly used on face, neck, décolletage, hands, and even body areas (for stretch marks or scarring).
Skin Types: Safe for all skin types (i.e., various skin colours) because of the controlled fractional delivery.

what SKIN CONCERNS CAN IT HELP WITH?
Venus Viva is used for a bunch of skin issues, including:
Acne scars / scarring more generally
Fine lines and deeper wrinkles
Enlarged pores / texture irregularities
Uneven pigmentation / sun damage
Rosacea / redness issues
Stretch marks (on body)
Skin laxity (to some extent)
what TO EXPECT DURING TREATMENT
Duration: A session typically takes around 30 minutes (depends on area).
Preparation: Usually a numbing cream is applied about ~30 minutes before to reduce discomfort.
Sensation: People often report a warm, prickly feeling from the pins / heat.
Energy Settings: Clinician can adjust energy (Joules), pulse duration, pattern, density — to make it more or less ablative / coagulative.
AFTER TREATMENT / DOWNTIME
Redness: Immediately after treatment, skin may appear red, feeling warm / tight.
Sensitivity: Skin may be slightly sensitive; similar to a mild sunburn.
Flaking / Dryness: Within 1–3 days, flakiness or dryness may start as the micro-wounds heal.
Makeup: Many clinics say you can use non-comedogenic makeup after about 24–36 hours (but follow your provider’s aftercare).
Activity Restrictions: Avoid heavy exercise / sweating for ~48 hours (depends on clinic) to reduce risk of irritation or infection.
Skincare: Avoid active / strong actives (retinoids, acids) for a few days post‑treatment.
Sun Protection: Very important — use SPF and avoid direct sun while healing.
NUMBER OF TREATMENTS & RESULTS
Typical Course: Many providers recommend 3–4 treatments, spaced ~4–6 weeks apart.
When Results Appear: You might notice some improvement within a few weeks, but collagen remodeling continues, so results improve over time.
Longevity: Results depend on your skin, how aggressive the treatment is, how well you do aftercare, and sun protection. Maintenance may also be needed.
RISKS & SIDE EFFECTS
Mild redness and swelling (common)
Flaking or dryness as skin heals
Potential for hyperpigmentation (especially if not done properly), though the SmartScan helps reduce risk.
Possible discomfort during treatment (but numbing helps)
Very small risk of infection if aftercare is not followed properly (because of micro-wounds)
PROS & BENEFITS
Customisable: Because the device settings are highly tunable, treatments can be customised to your skin and concerns.
Less Downtime: Compared to more aggressive laser resurfacing (like CO2), the downtime is relatively low.
Safe for Many Skin Types: The fractional RF approach and SmartScan make it safer across different skin tones.
Versatile: Can treat a lot of skin issues (scarring, wrinkles, pigmentation, pores, stretch marks).
Collagen Stimulation: Encourages natural skin healing and collagen production, leading to more lasting improvements.
CONSIDERATIONS / WHEN IT MIGHT NOT BE RIGHT
If you want very aggressive resurfacing (deep lines or very severe scarring), more intense lasers might be needed — but they also bring more risk and downtime.
If you have a history of poor wound healing or keloids, you’ll need to discuss with your clinician.
Cost: Multiple sessions are often required, so cost adds up.
You need to commit to good aftercare (sun protection, gentle skincare) to get the best results and avoid complications.
