Viora REACTION™ Skin Tightening
If you are tired of dealing with skin laxity, the Viora REACTION™ system offers effective skin tightening with no pain, surgery or downtime. The REACTION system is a safe, effective and clinically tested treatment that uses advanced radiofrequency technology to promote collagen remodeling deep within the skin. It works anywhere on the face — including the forehead, jaw and neckline.
What Is Viora Reaction skin tightening?
Viora REACTION skin tightening is a noninvasive solution to loose and sagging skin. The treatment uses advanced radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen remodeling deep within the dermis. The result is smoother and tighter skin with no pain and no downtime. This treatment can be used anywhere on the body but is especially effective on delicate areas such as the forehead, area around the eyes, jawline and neck.
The Viora REACTION system uses a unique type of radiofrequency technology and features vacuum therapy and three applicators. Its advanced technology ensures greater treatment precision and versatility, with more comfort and shorter recovery time compared to similar treatments.
Viora REACTION is an ideal treatment for patients experiencing early signs of skin aging and those who need a touch-up treatment following more invasive procedures. Its results are natural-looking and subtle.
How Does Viora REACTION Skin Tightening Work?
Viora REACTION™ is a radiofrequency (RF) skin-tightening treatment. Such treatments work by tightly controlling the heating of the skin through careful delivery of RF energy into the dermis. This breaks down collagen fibers and promotes collagen remodeling, creating firmer, tighter skin. These benefits occur over several weeks to months as the skin gradually builds new collagen fibers, and the effects can last for up to three years.
However, Viora REACTION is unique in its use of FDA-approved CORE™ (Channeling Optimized RF Energy) technology and vacuum therapy.
So, what exactly is CORE?
CORE technology delivers three different RF frequency channels (0.8MHz, 1.7MHz and 2.45MHz) and an additional three-channel model. Each channel treats different layers of the skin and underlying tissue for greater treatment precision and higher energy absorption. These features help make your treatment safe, pain-free, highly effective and precise compared to the competition.
The vacuum feature adds an additional layer of treatment efficiency by helping increase the depth of RF penetration.
Viora REACTION also comes with different applicators, all of which have an integrated cooling mechanism for greater patient comfort. The different applicators are used to treat larger or smaller and more delicate areas of skin.
Benefits of Viora REACTION Skin Tightening
Today’s patients concerned about skin sagging have many treatment options to choose from. But Viora REACTION offers a wide range of benefits that make it a particularly attractive option for some patients:
- Noninvasive treatment
- Great treatment comfort
- Clinically tested for safety and efficiency
- No need for downtime
- FDA-approved technology
- Visible skin tightening within weeks
- Results that can last years
- Can be used on sensitive areas (e.g. the eyes, neck and décolletage)
What Areas Can Be Treated?
Viora REACTION can be used virtually anywhere on the body thanks to its use of multiple RF channels and three different applicators, all of which give providers control over the depth of RF penetration and intensity of treatment. At Severn River Medspa, we use this device primarily to treat the following areas:
- Face
- Chin
- Jawline
- Neck
- Décolletage
One of the best uses of this treatment is following a facelift to help maintain results in the jawline and neck areas. Because skin aging continues even after invasive treatments such as a face or neck lift, patients can benefit from skin-tightening solutions to maintain their results.
What to Expect
Like many other noninvasive treatments, getting treated with Viora REACTION is fairly simple, straightforward and convenient. Still, some level of preparation and post-treatment care is necessary to ensure you are happy with the treatment and results.
Preparation
To prepare you for treatment, we will start with a free consultation at our office. Your provider will review your medical history, talk to you about your concerns and expectations from treatment and perform a simple physical exam. At least a week before treatment, patients should avoid direct sun exposure, chemical peels, skin resurfacing, blood-thinning medications and supplements and smoking. These things make the skin sensitive and can increase your risk of complications.
Treatment
There is usually no need for a topical anesthetic for this treatment. Your provider will start by cleansing your skin before passing the handheld applicator over the skin. As the RF energy is delivered, you may sense mild and fleeting warmth. The cooling tip on the applicator will help keep you comfortable. The treatment takes approximately 30-45 minutes to complete, with most patients needing six to eight sessions spaced one to three weeks apart.
Recovery
It’s normal to experience mild redness and swelling immediately after treatment. In fact, this is a good sign that the treatment has worked. This should fade within the first day. You can resume your day as usual post-treatment; however, it’s important to be gentle on your skin to get the best results. Avoid direct sun exposure, harsh skincare and intense physical activity.
Results
It can take several weeks to months for the full results of Viora REACTION to show. That’s because your skin takes a while to recover after each session and to produce new collagen and elastin fibers. But once this happens, you can expect tighter, smoother and lifted skin for months to years after treatment. Taking good care of your skin and touch-up treatments help maintain your results for as long as possible.

FAQs
Frequently asked, frequently answered by the Severn River Medspa.
Viora REACTION™ uses bipolar RF energy for superficial penetration and localized treatment, while truSculpt® uses monopolar RF energy for deep penetration and wide application. We normally use Viora REACTION for smaller and delicate areas that need skin tightening, while truSculpt is used for noninvasive body contouring.
Yes! Viora REACTION can be paired with invasive or noninvasive procedures for a more comprehensive makeover. We often pair RF skin tightening with laser skin resurfacing, for example, to both lift the skin and enhance the complexion. This treatment is often paired with microneedling, injectables and even other energy-based treatments.
Viora REACTION, used for body contouring with the help of the BC applicator, can reduce unwanted fat. However, the main focus of this treatment is skin tightening. truSculpt, another RF-based treatment, is also used for body contouring and can penetrate deeper into the subcutaneous layers for more dramatic fat reduction.
While nearly anyone can be a candidate for this treatment, the ideal candidate is someone with mild to moderate skin laxity. Like many other noninvasive skin-tightening treatments, Viora REACTION is not a replacement for surgery. Instead, it offers visible but mild skin tightening to patients with early signs of skin aging or those needing a touch-up after a face or neck lift.
Because Viora REACTION uses RF energy, it is not suitable for patients with pacemakers, internal defibrillators or other implanted electrical devices as the RF energy can interact with these devices. It is also a good idea to postpone this treatment if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or have an active skin infection.
Yes! Because this treatment can be adjusted to target the deeper layers of the skin, it can safely be used on darker complexions that are normally at risk of hyperpigmentation with more superficial treatments.
