How effective is Venus viva for sun spots and acne scars and especially for dark circles around eyes?

Question

I met a certified aesthetician for laser hair removal of upper lip and chin...and she showed me Venus viva for under eye circles as well...I doubt how safe is that for eyes...

I specialize in the treatment of Acne and Acne scarring. venus Viva is an ablative nano-fractional radiofrequency device. I am aggressive and unusually sedate my patients for the treatment. 2-3 sessions over 3 months are needed to achieve the result of an aggressive fractional Mixto Co2 laser. the recovery time is normally 2-3 days and most of my patients are very happy with the result. This machine is a great tool and has hundreds of settings. The practitioner can concentrate on fine lines, brown spots, blood vessels, blemishes or acne scars. It is an art. Please find someone with a lot of experience. Yes; the dark spots under the yes can also improve with this modality.Yours,Dr. david R.
