Venus Viva Radio Frequency Perth

Venus Viva is generally considered safe, but like any cosmetic procedure, it can have potential side effects. It’s important to discuss these with your practitioner before undergoing the treatment. Common side effects of Venus Viva may include:

1. Redness: Mild to moderate redness of the treated area is common immediately after the procedure. This redness usually subsides within a few days.
2. Swelling: Some swelling can occur, especially if more intensive settings are used during the treatment. Swelling is usually temporary and should diminish within a few days.
3. Heat Sensation: During the procedure, you might feel a warm or hot sensation on your skin due to the radiofrequency energy. This is normal and generally well-tolerated.
4. Mild Discomfort: Some patients might experience mild discomfort or a tingling sensation during the treatment. However, most people find the procedure tolerable.
5. Dryness and Peeling: As the skin heals, you might experience dryness and peeling. This is a natural part of the skin renewal process and should be temporary.
6. Bruising: In rare cases, bruising can occur, especially if the skin is sensitive. This side effect is usually minimal and temporary.
7. Infection: Although rare, there is a small risk of infection after any skin procedure. It’s crucial to follow post-treatment care instructions to minimize this risk.
8. Changes in Pigmentation: Changes in skin pigmentation, such as hyperpigmentation (darkening) or hypopigmentation (lightening), are rare but possible. Individuals with darker skin tones are more prone to these changes.
9. Scarring: While Venus Viva is designed to promote skin healing, in rare cases, there could be scarring, especially if the treated area is not cared for properly after the procedure.
10. Allergic Reactions: Though uncommon, some individuals might have an allergic reaction to the topical products used during the procedure.
