Skin Resurfacing Combination Treatments
Professional skin resurfacing with Venus Viva™ MD delivers impressive results on its own but when combined with other treatments, it can provide even more powerful rejuvenation. At Quality Care Internal Medicine & MedSpa, we safely stage or layer treatments to help you achieve your best outcome.
Resurfacing + Botox®
Smooths fine lines at the surface while Botox relaxes deeper expression lines for a refreshed, youthful look.
Resurfacing + Dermal Fillers
Improves skin tone and texture while fillers restore lost volume in the cheeks, lips, or under-eyes.
Resurfacing + Hydrafacial (staged separately)
Prepares and maintains your skin between resurfacing sessions with deep hydration and nourishment.
Resurfacing + Microneedling (alternating sessions)
Combines collagen stimulation at different skin depths for more complete improvement in texture and scars.
Resurfacing + PRP/PRF (staged add-on)
Enhances healing and collagen production with your body’s natural growth factors, for faster recovery and longer-lasting results.
Our providers design a customized plan to combine or sequence treatments safely, ensuring each service supports and enhances the others.
Skin Resurfacing vs. Microneedling
| Feature | Skin Resurfacing (Venus Viva™ MD) | Microneedling (Rejuvapen NXT) |
|---|---|---|
| How It Works | Uses NanoFractional RF energy to remodel skin at deeper levels | Creates tiny micro-channels to stimulate collagen and healing |
| Best For | Wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, texture concerns | Fine lines, enlarged pores, uneven tone, overall rejuvenation |
| Downtime | 2-3 days redness, mild flaking | 1-2 days redness, minimal downtime |
| Collagen Stimulation | Deeper, more intense collagen remodeling | Moderate collagen boost, gradual improvement |
| Skin Types | Safe for a wide range of tones | Safe for most skin types |
| Results | More dramatic resurfacing with longer-lasting effects | Subtle, natural refresh with steady improvement |
Many patients choose to combine both treatments, alternating sessions for layered benefits and more comprehensive results.
Venus Viva™ MD vs. Traditional CO₂ Laser
| Feature | Venus Viva™ MD (NanoFractional RF) | Traditional CO₂ Laser |
|---|---|---|
| Comfort | Gentle RF heat, more comfortable | More aggressive, can be painful |
| Downtime | 2-3 days redness, quick recovery | 1-2 weeks recovery, peeling and crusting |
| Skin Types | Safe for a wide range of tones | Higher risk for darker skin tones |
| Collagen Boost | Stimulates long-term collagen production | Stimulates collagen but with more downtime |
| Scarring Risk | Low risk due to controlled energy delivery | Higher risk if skin doesn’t heal well |
| Results | Natural, gradual improvement | Dramatic but can appear less natural |
Venus Viva™ MD gives you smoother, younger-looking skin with far less downtime than traditional CO₂ laser resurfacing.

Skin Resurfacing FAQS
Does skin resurfacing hurt?
We apply numbing cream before treatment, and most patients describe the sensation as warm and prickly rather than painful. The Venus Viva™ MD device is designed for comfort, and cooling measures help during treatment.
Can this help with deep acne scars?
Yes, Venus Viva™ MD is effective at reducing the depth and visibility of acne scars. For deeper scars, multiple treatments are often recommended for the best results.
How soon can I wear makeup after treatment?
Most patients can safely wear mineral makeup 24 hours after treatment, once redness begins to fade. We’ll give you specific instructions based on your skin’s healing response.
Is skin resurfacing safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. Unlike traditional CO₂ lasers, Venus Viva™ MD is safe and effective for a broader range of skin types, including medium to darker tones.
How long do results last?
With proper sun protection and skin care, results can last for years. Because your skin continues to age naturally, many patients choose maintenance treatments once or twice a year.
Can I combine this with other treatments?
Yes, many patients pair resurfacing with Botox, dermal fillers, or skin tightening for comprehensive results. We’ll design a safe combination plan based on your skin’s needs.
What’s the difference between skin resurfacing and microneedling?
Both stimulate collagen but in different ways. Microneedling creates tiny channels in the skin, while resurfacing with Venus Viva™ MD uses radiofrequency energy to remodel tissue deeper below the surface. Resurfacing is better for texture, scars, and wrinkles, while microneedling is often chosen for overall rejuvenation.
