Nineteen of Medvedev's 21 championships have been achieved on hard courts
A comeback the Russian player secured his first championship for nearly 30 months with a win over Corentin Moutet in the competition final.
Medvedev, a former world number one, has had a challenging period, achieving just one match at the big events and experiencing a meltdown at the New York tournament.
Medvedev's varied form on the ATP Tour - and struggles with his service game in specific - caused him falling of the elite rankings and finally parting ways with former coach Gilles Cervara.
Presently collaborating with Johansson and Rohan Goetzke, he has consistently improved in the last few weeks - peaking in a hard-fought 7-5 4-6 6-3 victory over opponent Moutet.
This marks the player's first championship following the Rome competition and initial on a hardcourt since that period of that year.
Victory also means he has achieved 21 victories at 21 different tournaments.
"It's the first time I'm at a competition with my two daughters at once, so to get a championship is especially meaningful," commented world number 14 Medvedev.
"This title is in tribute of my younger daughter her name, because the first title I got when my first daughter her name was born was for her."
Medvedev, the past champion, had been defeated in his last six title deciders, featuring in that event previously this season.
Medvedev's counter-punching strategy and frequent outbursts on the tennis court had caused some to question if his ability to compete at the highest level was finished.
Yet the 29-year-old has made changes in the past month, making an effort to come to the net and perform aggressively, reinforced by an better serve.
The champion recovered from a disadvantage in the first set against the challenging Moutet, taking 4 of the concluding five exchanges to go ahead.
The competitors exchanged breaks in the following set before the Frenchman, bidding for his initial tour victory, seized the initiative to create a decider.
The opponent defended 4 early chances in a tight final set before Medvedev won the break to that score to secure the win.
Suitably, Medvedev earned victory with a rally at the net area, with his opponent incapable to handle a volley after over two and a half hours.
