Reversing the effects of sun damage is a two-way street. It’s not only about correcting, but also about protecting skin, especially after investing in cutting-edge treatments. With a new collaboration that combines Aesthetics Biomedical’s Vivace Microneeedling RF with a post-care step featuring the beloved Colorescience Sunforgettable Brush-On SPF, getting healthier-looking skin is easier than ever. Now, when patients opt for a Vivace Radio Frequency with Microneedling treatment, a NewBeauty 2022 award-winner for Best Skin Resurfacing Microneedling Treatment, they’ll also receive a Colorescience Brush-On SPF as part of their experience bundle to help maintain results.
Torrance, CA plastic surgeon Christine Petti, MD, says the radio-frequency procedure is one of the most popular skin-perfecting treatments at her practice and she says the specially-formulated Vivace Experience post-care products truly maximize results. “I think they’ve created a great package of post-care ingredients that address everything in terms of having the Soothe Mask, which is calming and anti-inflammatory, then their brightening Boost Serum, which has three peptides that offer amazing antioxidant activity. Now, they’ve added the Sunforgettable Total Protection Brush-On Shield SPF 50, which can be safely applied right after the treatment. It has the effect of protecting the skin against UVA, UVB blue light, but it also combines it with a nice makeup type of coverage.”
The tiny microneedles form small channels in the skin, a highly controlled skin injury is created which triggers wound healing and stimulates new collagen growth. Immediately post-treatment, skin is as vulnerable as ever and protecting it from further damage as it heals itself is key. “Colorescience Sunforgettable is one of the only sunscreens that has the Skin Cancer Foundation seal, so it gives adequate protection for both skin cancer and sun damage,” adds Dr. Petti. “Its brush-on ability makes it easy to reapply every two hours and you can carry it in your purse or in your pocket. That’s what’s great about it—it’s portable and something you can just easily whip out and use.”
