Venus Viva-how does it differ from Thermage/other rf devices? What are the potential complications?

Hello! I am hoping to see some improvements in mild acne scarring and general skin texture-I have an upcoming appointment for Venus Viva but I have some concerns. There are a lot of reports (anecdotal and confirmed) of rf treatment causing volume loss/textural worsening-are the same problems possible with Viva? Can Viva affect dermal fillers? If not, why? What separates Viva from other rf technology? Hate to swap one problem for another!
