Keep reading to learn more about these procedures, and what they can do for you!
How Does Encinitas Vivace RF Microneedling Work?
Are you seeing a prominence in large pores, lines, age spots, and other skin issues? If so, Vivace RF microneedling can help. At The Studio Med Spa, we use this innovative system that works by introducing radiofrequency (RF) energy to the skin during the microneedling procedure, helping to heat up the skin and further boost collagen production. Microneedling itself works by causing a surface level injury to the skin using controlled pinpricks with a pen-like tool. While in recovery, the skin produces new tissue that is richer in collagen, as well as even-toned and with a smoother texture.
Studies in microneedling have further emphasized the efficacy in the results of microneedling. One study found a
400% increase in collagen and elastin about 6 months into the microneedling procedure. For patients who are looking to treat acne scars and other skin problems, microneedling can be the perfect answer. Consult with a provider at The Studio Med Spa to learn more.
What Conditions Can Be Treated?
How can you tell whether Vivace microneedling is right for you? At The Studio Med Spa, we provide initial consultations to patients interested in microneedling in order to learn more about whether this is the right aesthetic treatment for them. This minimally invasive treatment can take 30 minutes of the actual procedure. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand. This treatment can be used to target:
- Acne scars and other shallow scars
- Age spots (also known as sun spots)
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Large pores
- Reduced skin elasticity
- Uneven skin tones
- Scarring throughout the body
- Stretch marks
Are There Any Risks to Microneedling in Encinitas?
Like with any aesthetic procedure, there may be certain risks associated with microneedling. However, this procedure is minimally invasive and requires little downtime, which means patients are in and out of the clinic that same day. Side effects from microneedling are generally mild. Some possible side effects may include minor skin irritation and redness. More serious side effects may look like significant bleeding, significant bruising, and infection, and it is highly recommended you reach out to our providers if you experience these types of side effects.
Microneedling is generally safe for all individuals. However, there are some conditions that may prevent you from going through this procedure. Are you an ideal candidate for microneedling? We don’t recommend this procedure if you are:
- Pregnant
- Have certain skin conditions, including psoriasis or eczema
- Have open wounds
- Have had radiation therapy recently
- Deal with keloid formation

How Will My Encinitas Laser Hair Removal Treatment Work?
During the initial consultation for laser hair removal, one of our providers will work with you to construct the aesthetic plan you are looking for. During this consultation, your skin and hair type are evaluated in order to formulate the best option. This is also where patients ask all the questions they may have, as well as are reassured about the actual procedure. During the initial consultation, we advise patients to avoid sun exposure and tanning, as well as steer clear from plucking and shaving.
We typically advise patients to shave the area being treated the day before their appointment, as this can further enhance the effectiveness of the laser. During the actual laser hair removal procedure, the technician will gently guide the laser over the affected area. Adjustments are made to the laser in accordance with patient comfort, skin type, and hair type. Most laser hair removal sessions can last from a few minutes to an hour. Use laser hair removal to target areas like:
- Facial hair
- Arms and legs
- Bikini line
- Back and chest
