What Vivacy does

Laboratoires VIVACY S.A.S., founded in 2007 and headquartered at 8 rue Bellini, 75116 Paris, is a French private manufacturer of injectable medical devices for regenerative aesthetic medicine. The company develops, produces, and distributes three injectable platforms — STYLAGE® hyaluronic acid-based dermal fillers (S, M, L, XL, XXL, Special Lips, Lips Plus, Hydro, Hydromax) for wrinkle correction, volume restoration, lip enhancement, and skin hydration; DESIRIAL® hyaluronic acid gels for female vulvovaginal restoration, the first injectable HA gel for intimate health launched in 2011; and NOVUMA® calcium hydroxyapatite biostimulators for collagen regeneration via Advanced BioSphere Technology. VIVACY also distributes REJURAN® polynucleotide skin boosters exclusively in Europe under a partnership with PharmaResearch (Korea) and offers KARTILAGE® viscosupplementation for knee osteoarthritis. Proprietary technologies include IPN-Like stabilization, the Skin3 Complex, and the Bi-FLEX® ergonomic syringe platform that uses 25% less plastic and was globally launched in September 2025.

The company manufactures at a dedicated facility in Archamps, France (ArchParc), holding Class III CE-mark certifications under notified body 0344 (STYLAGE/DESIRIAL), 2292 (NOVUMA, DESIRIAL Plus), and 2265 (REJURAN), with NOVUMA receiving MDR 2017/745 EU approval in 2025 and REJURAN receiving CE MDR clearance in 2024. Products are sold exclusively to qualified healthcare professionals — aesthetic doctors, plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and gynecologists — through a combination of seven wholly-owned European subsidiaries (France, Switzerland, Italy, UK, Spain, Benelux, Poland) and a certified distributor network spanning 85+ countries. Distribution includes exclusive European rights for PharmaResearch REJURAN and a global partnership with Burgeon Biotechnology for NOVUMA. Customer reach is cited at 250,000+ doctors worldwide.

VIVACY's revenue model is one-time medical device sales priced per syringe, with territory and order-volume-based determination via sales representatives and distributors. Supporting revenue and lock-in mechanisms include the VIVACY Academy training platform for HCP certification, the B.A.S.E. (Biology-Advanced Skin Education) clinical framework, and the Vivacy Security mobile app using RFID for product authentication. Marketing combines major aesthetic congress participation (AMWC Monaco, AMWC Dubai, IMCAS Asia), targeted social media, and a Beauty Hub/WWD China activation. The ownership is private and management-led, with Bertrand Frohly serving as President & CEO, Denis Couchourel as Scientific & Medical Director, and Frédéric Tranchepain as R&D Director; no external private equity or venture capital backing is disclosed.

Direct peers

• Prollenium Medical Technologies: Canadian maker of the Revanesse line of HA dermal fillers, sold through physician channels in North America and international markets. Comparable mid-sized specialist competing on HA filler technology differentiation.
• Teoxane: Swiss specialist in hyaluronic acid dermal fillers (Teosyal range), a fellow European-based mid-sized HA injector with comparable physician-channel GTM and a portfolio spanning fillers, skin boosters, and cosmeceuticals. Closest like-for-like private peer to VIVACY.
• Sinclair Pharma: Aesthetic medicine specialist with HA fillers (MaiLi), collagen stimulators (Ellansé), and bio-remodeling (Profhilo). Comparable mid-sized, Europe-anchored portfolio across multiple injectable modalities — similar diversification strategy to VIVACY's HA + CaHA + PN stack.
• Galderma: Global dermatology and aesthetic injectable leader, with the Restylane hyaluronic acid filler portfolio directly competing against STYLAGE. Galderma also markets Sculptra biostimulator and is the most direct large-scale competitor to VIVACY in physician-dispensed HA injectables.
• Croma-Pharma: Austrian family-owned manufacturer of HA-based injectables (Princess fillers) and PRF systems, sold through a physician-focused network across Europe and select global markets. Closely comparable in scale, ownership structure, and European distribution footprint to VIVACY.
• Merz Aesthetics: Sells Belotero hyaluronic acid fillers and Radiesse calcium hydroxyapatite biostimulator, the closest single competitor to VIVACY's combined HA + CaHA portfolio. Targets the same physician channels with comparable claims around natural results and longevity.
• PharmaResearch: Korean manufacturer of REJURAN polynucleotide skin boosters. Counterpart supplier to VIVACY for the European market and a direct competitor in PN-based regenerative aesthetics in Asia; the partnership relationship makes it both a peer and a strategic dependency.

Emerging players

• Hugel: Korean aesthetic and neurotoxin company with expanding HA filler (Chaeum) and biostimulator offerings. Comparable trajectory to VIVACY as an Asia-rooted specialist expanding internationally across multiple injectable modalities.
• LG Chem Life Sciences: Sells Yvoire line of HA dermal fillers and is expanding its aesthetics footprint globally. Comparable mid-tier HA injectable competitor with growing investments in biostimulator-adjacent categories and physician-channel distribution.

Broad incumbents

• AbbVie / Allergan Aesthetics: Owner of the Juvéderm HA filler franchise, the global #1 in aesthetic injectables. Overlaps directly with STYLAGE in facial volumization and lip enhancement, and competes for the same dermatologists and plastic surgeons, but as part of a much broader pharmaceutical and aesthetics portfolio.
