Unveiling a suite of protocols tailor-
ing its device-based treatments (alone
and/or in combination) to women af-
ter pregnancy, Viora (Jersey City, N.J.)
is helping its physician partners target
a key market for aesthetic medicine.
According to users, the companys
technologies are ideal for post-partum
rejuvenation of the face and body, pro-
viding safe, effective, non-invasive and
rapid treatments, all musts for busy new
moms. Collectively, these protocols are
known as ReBirth.
As Inna Belenky, M.D., a physician
in Israel and member of Vioras clinical
training and advisory team, pointed out,
Among the likely indications women
will seek after pregnancy are treatment
for chlorasma (post-pregnancy melas-
ma) and especially abdominal laxity
and stretch marks, which often go hand-
in-hand. For recontouring, Reaction
with CORE technology is used with
the ReFit protocol originally crafted
to target patients after weight loss. The
combination bi-polar RF and vacuum
can deliver three distinct RF channels
(frequencies) each targeting different
tissue depths. CORE technology allows
combination delivery of frequencies for
more extensive coverage and fuller, syn-
ergistic tightening. This ability is vital to
successful treatment for abdominal lax-
ity because after pregnancy, looseness
isnt limited to surface tissue. CORE tech-
nology allows us to treat all layers simul-
taneously down to subcutaneous tissue,
Dr. Belenky explained.
The option to deliver three types of
RF separately or together, as well as
modulation of other parameters, maxi-
mizes customization of treatment. No
other device allows you such latitude
in targeting specific or multiple tissue
layers, Dr. Belenky added, which is
why you can even use this technology
on the face.
Matthew Schulman, M.D., a board cer-
tified plastic surgeon and assistant profes-
sor of plastic surgery at the Mount Sinai
School of Medicine (New York, N.Y.),
cautions that the Reaction is not a substi-
tute for surgery, but is most useful for mild
to medium skin laxity. The ReFit protocol
is a non-surgical alternative to a tummy
tuck. Cellulite reduction protocols with
Reaction can also improve the appear-
ance of the buttocks, hips and thighs. Dr.
Schulman also uses Reaction for post-op-
erative applications as well. For women
choosing surgical procedures such as
tummy tucks, thigh lifts and liposuction, to
achieve full correction CORE technology
is a great adjunct to not only enhance cor-
rection, but speed recovery.
Licensed medical aesthetician Amanda
Sanzone, who practices in Dr. Schulmans
clinic, agreed; The ability for new moms
to immediately return to everyday activi-
ties is an immense benefit, so the lack of
downtime associated with cellulite reduc-
tion and treatment of laxity using Vioras
Reaction is probably the top benefit here.
Number of treatments and intervals be-
tween are determined by the patients skin
quality and region to be treated.
Reactions all-in-one ReBirth treatment
protocol is fast and safe, allowing prac-
titioners to work quickly by working be-
tween handpieces on the same platform.
You can use the different modalities on
the same patient in the same day, Dr.
Belenky added. You can do it all in
about an hour.
For non-fractional treatment of stretch
marks, Dr. Belenky says she relies on
Reactions V-ST handpiece and the V-IPL
pulsed light handpiece for pigmentation.
Dr. Schulman also employs Vioras Trios
IPL for facial rejuvenation in his practice.
We offer Trios for reduction in acne, fa-
cial vascular malformations and visible
signs of aging and photodamage such as
fine lines, wrinkles and age spots.
