I understand that Reaction by Viora at Pelleve are both RF treatments. What is the difference between the two, and is one better than the other for the lower face/jawline area? I am considering Reaction for mild laxness in that area. Thanks

Answer: Pelleve for facial skin tightening vs Reaction by Viora
CO2 Laser Resurfacing and Pelleve work very differently and create different results. CO2 uses a laser that resurfaces the skin and creates changes and improvement in both textural and pigmentation issues. Pelleve uses radiofrequency to gently heat the skin and this heat stimulates collagen...
Pelleve RF is not recommended for pregnant/lactating mothers. You should always consult with your obgyn prior to having any cosmetic/medspa treatment.
The minimum recommended number of treatments is 3 spaced 1 month apart. Depending on different factors such as age and skin laxity you may require more treatments. It is also recommended to have a great ember ever 6 months after your initial set of treatments
