How It Works

WHAT IS VIORA ST™ TREATMENT?

Lucia Clinic’s Viora treatment fights the signs of aging. It is a skin tightening procedure that eliminates and prevents the future appearance of aging signs. Viora uses RF energy to stimulate the existing elastin and collagen fibers and enhance the growth of these important proteins that keep the skin elastic.

During the Viora treatment, the energy penetrates the deeper layers of the skin which in turn provide more effective results. These layers are the ones that consist of collagen and when they are triggered they start improving the skin elasticity and minimize the signs of aging in the long run.

Viora ST™ works by combining two different forms of RF energy and also vacuum therapy. These technologies stimulate the body’s natural process of regeneration and reduce the circumference of targeted areas. The RF energy targets fat pockets that are deep under the skin and reduce fat cells and improve metabolism. Vacuum therapy on the other hand improves lymphatic drainage and blood circulation. After just one session, the skin is firmer and tighter.

HOW DOES VIORA ST™ WORK?

Viora ST™ works by using CORE™ (Channeling Optimized Radiofrequency Energy) technology that can be set on three different levels of radiofrequency and also has the fourth leve lthat combines the first three. The CORE technology heats the deeper layers of tissue and eliminates the fat cells, stimulates the collagen fibers and makes the new collagen and elastin produce over time. There are four different applicators that have different suction levels and they are used together with the RF energy to penetrate the levels of tissue according to patients’ skin type, laxity and thickness. This way each Viora treatment can be customized for better results.

The RF energy boosts blood circulation by heating the dermal layers of the skin and increases fat cell metabolism. The treatment produces firmer and tighter skin and provides long-term results.

WHAT DOES VIORA ST™ TARGET?

As the face is the most exposed area of the skin, the signs of aging are most visible there. Sun exposure, heat and toxins greatly contribute to the appearance of problematic skin. The sun-damaged skin, poor complexion and uneven and wrinkled skin can be treated with this outstanding procedure. Viora ST™ reverses the signs of aging and also reduces the risk of future damage occurring.

The areas of the face that can be treated with Viora ST™ are

  • Jawline                                                                     
  • Eyelids
  • Forehead                                                                 
  • The skin around the lips
  • Cheeks                                                                    
  • Neck
  • The skin around the eyes                                       
  • Décolletage

Viora ST™ tightens the loose skin on the face and neck, contours the cheekbones and jawline, eliminates the wrinkles and fine lines around the eyes and mouth.

VIORA ST™ RESULTS AND BENEFITS

The first results of the Viora treatment are immediately visible in the form of skin improvements. This initial skin tightening is temporary because seeing the best and long-lasting results requires some time to pass. New collagen needs to remodel over a few months. The full effects of this treatment are visible six to eight months post-procedure. If patients decide to have one or two touch-up treatments a year, they can maintain the results really well.

The benefits of Viora treatment are numerous. It’s a safe, non-invasive treatment that can precisely target the problem area as it uses superior treatment control.

It requires no downtime and delivers amazing results. The skin on the face and neck is visibly tighter and smoother, as Viora can eliminate fine lines and wrinkles. With Viora ST™ the signs of aging get really reversed and the skin gets rejuvenated.

FREQUENT QUESTIONS

  • WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR VIORA ST™ FOR THE FACE TREATMENT?

    Viora ST™ can be a perfect aesthetic solution for people who are over 30 and have mildly to moderately loose skin and moderate fine lines and wrinkles. Also, it can really help people whose eyelids and skin on the face have lost elasticity and are visibly loose.

    Ideal patients for this procedure are the ones who want to improve skin texture, eliminate wrinkles and fine lines and get rejuvenated and tighter skin. Also, patients who are not ready for surgical facelifts can choose this treatment to achieve natural results. Since this treatment is non-surgical, it is a great option for everyone who doesn’t want a longer recovery.

    Viora ST™ for the face is suitable for all skin tones and types as well as for both men and women. The treatment is fast as it can be finished in 30 minutes. It is completely safe and effective and requires no downtime.

  • HOW DOES THE VIORA ST™ FOR THE FACE TREATMENT LOOK LIKE?

    Upon arriving at Lucia Clinic, the patients are consulted with Viora ST™ therapists. They carefully assess the patients’ faces and determine if they are suitable for this treatment. Together with the patients, the therapists create a custom-made treatment plan that will specifically target their problematic areas.

    The treatment is performed by a specialist who uses an applicator designed especially for the face so that it can reach all problematic areas. The treatment applicator is placed on the skin and treats the areas in slow, concentrated motions. The patient feels two sensations - hot and cold temperatures on the top layer of the skin. The applicator’s tip has a contact cooling mechanism that keeps the temperature on the skin comfortable while at the same time heats the deeper layers of the skin. This cooling tip actually protects the epidermis. The treatment is thus painless and there is no need for topical anesthetic. Viora ST™ is easy and comfortable, and gives a pleasant warm sensation during the treatment. After the treatment, the skin feels significantly smoother and tighter.

  • HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT LAST?

    Viora ST™ treatment sessions can last between 20 to 30 minutes. It all depends on the specific application, the patient’s individual skin issues and the area that is targeted.

    Usually, four to eight treatment sessions are advised for the best results. Each session should be scheduled 2 to 4 weeks apart.

    The response to the treatment varies from patient to patient and the severity of the skin condition. Patients can have additional touch-ups to maintain the results as the collagen naturally diminishes again. The number of sessions and the need for additional treatments are determined by the Viora therapists during the consultations.

  • ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS AND DOWNTIME?

    Possible side effects may occur, but nothing significant. The patients may experience redness or swelling, but these sensitivities stop a few hours or 2 to 3 days post-procedure.

    There is no downtime after the treatment and patients can return to their normal daily routine after the treatment. Since it is a fast treatment it can be fitted into a lunch break.
