Is Vivace microneedling worth it if you're under 30 with no acne?

Question

I need an honest answer. I'm 26 years old and trying to be pro-active about my health and skin care needs. I know as I age my collagen production is going to start decreasing. Vivace sounds promising, but I notice it's typically used by older people or people with acne. My skin is fine, no acne, wrinkles, or sun damage. Would it be worth it to start Vivace now, so I don't have to use it as much in the future, or should I wait? If I should wait, what age should I get it?

Its never too early to start preventative treatments.  Vivace is a great treatment option to prevent future lines to form, keep skin tight, and maintain collagen production. You may hear often that Botox can be preventative because it will keep the wrinkles from forming-similar concept.  lf you are starting to notice some changes in your face I would recommend to start with one a year.  Although you may not notice as drastic as a difference as an acne patient or older patient would you can be confident in knowing that you are slowing down the aging process. You will notice a change in your overall skin health (tone/texture/glow).

I love that you are in your 20's and want to be proactive with your skin heath. Vivace is Microneedling RF popular among my patients because 1. it works. 2. it doesn't hurt. 3. it has minimal downtime. Even at your age, you have accumulated sun damage under the skin that is visible with a Visia computerized skin analysis and will come to surface gradually in 3 to 5 years . So, Vivace Microneedling RF now will allow your skin to get healthier and age less than others in your age group. You can expect smoother, more flawless and poreless looking skin. 
Happy aging backwards,

We love the needling devices for preventative aging. It is a great option for the goals you mentioned. It has minimal downtime and is not too "aggressive". It sounds like you would benefit from 2-4 treatments if you pair it with PRP, even better! Your older self will thank you! Continue with a great skin care regimen and sunscreen, of course! 
Best,

Vivace is a wonderful treatment to maintain and enhance your features.  It will stimulate new collagen formation and better blood flow to maintain and give the healthy, tight shiny look of the stars! Good luck.
