There is no question that skin care has evolved tremendously over the past 10-15 years. Kansas City Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Chhatre and our experienced licensed esthetician, Kelsey, has seen her fair share of great, not so great and mediocre treatments and fads hit the skin care market.
With the internet and social media so prevalent now, it’s hard to decipher the legit treatments and products from the bogus inferior options. Something that we have always taken a great amount of pride in is that we do our research. As wonderful as all of the new treatments seem when they hit the market, we need to make sure that anything that we offer at Summit Plastic Surgery & MedSpa stands up to our high standards. We may not be the first MedSpa in Kansas City MO to introduce the newest treatments, procedures or products, but when we do, we have decided after extensive research that we are moving forward with and offering the best option to deliver the best results to our clients.
Having said all of that, after some intense research and advanced training we are extremely excited to announce our newest medical skin care treatment to our Kansas City area MedSpa, Microneedling with the Vivace Micro-needling RF. This procedure has been making a stance in the medical skin care industry and now we believe that we have the best option and staff training to deliver the optimal results to our clients.

Microneedling is a medical skin care treatment where Kansas City skin care specialist, Kelsey, use an electric Vivace Micro-needling RF that delivers fractionated channels into the skin, which in return initiates the bodies own wound healing response by replacing the injured tissue with new cells- elastin and collagen.
The result is improved skin quality and appearance. The fractionated channels are delivered by Vivace Micro-needling RF’s unique springloaded Microderm Needle Cartridge™. The cartridge includes 12 tiny needles that glide over the skin providing the most efficient control, safety and comfort in the shortest time possible. With close to 1300 micro channels per second we are sure to deliver the best results, no matter what the skin condition, type or age. By choosing the Vivace Micro-needling RF we are able to offer the deepest needle penetration to offer more aggressive microneedling treatments.
Microneedling can be a minor procedure with minimal redness to more invasive with pin point bleeding, redness and swelling for 12-48 hours. Treatments are 100% customizable depending on skin type and thickness.

What Are The Benefits Of Microneedling?
This minimally invasive and patient friendly procedure can be done on most skin types to treat most skin conditions. Sound too good to be true? It’s not! With the option to adjust the needle length and speed of the Vivace Micro-needling RF, microneedling can be tailored to each skin type and thickness as well as location and condition.
The spring loaded cartridge delivers vertical punctures anywhere on the body for controlled induction of the skin’s self repair by creating precise micro injuries into the skin.
The result of this process is cell manipulation which results in the transformation of new tissue layers of elastin and collagen fibers, as well as, in new capillaries for improved blood supply, revealing brighter, healthier, younger looking skin. Since there is no heat involved in microneedling like light based treatments, there are no restrictions with skin type, color or sun exposure.
This procedure can be done on any area of the body where younger, firmer, smoother, clearer and healthier skin is desired.
What Skin Conditions Can The Vivace Micro-needling RF Help Treat?
Unlike most treatments there really isn’t anything that the Vivace Micro-needling RF can’t treat. With being able to treat most skin colors, including tanned skin, we are able to offer treatments like never before. Microneedling will be perfect for you if you’re wanting to treat any of the following skin conditions:

- Improvement in Skin Quality
Depending on what you is being treated along with the severity will depend on how many microneedling treatments will be recommended. Starting with a series of 4-8 is going to give the best possible results. This treatment is also a great addition to your current skin care routine, whether it is Forever Young BBL treatments or Diamond Glow. Microneedling dramatically increases the effectiveness and penetration of topical skin care products into the skin. There are recommended products to use following the procedure that will assist with the results and insure that you see the best changes.
