What is SKINVIVE?
SKINVIVE by Juvéderm® is the first and only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid (HA) microdroplet injectable in the US to improve smoothness in the cheeks, leaving you looking glowy, hydrated, and refreshed. This innovative injectable treatment is formulated to improve skin resiliency, elasticity, and quality while also smoothing the skin and restoring a youthful glow. We often refer to it as ‘injectable hydration’ when explaining it to patients.
Reasons for SKINVIVE
There are many reasons patients choose SKINVIVE to enhance their skin’s appearance and texture. Over time, skin naturally loses its ability to retain moisture, resulting in dullness and fine lines. SKINVIVE helps restore your appearance by delivering lasting hydration beneath the surface of the skin.
Before Your SKINVIVE Procedure
Before your SKINVIVE procedure, we recommend that you schedule a consultation to verif your candidacy. Healthy individuals over the age of 21 who wish to improve skin smoothness in the cheek area can often benefit from SKINVIVE treatment. However, if you are pregnant or nursing, have an active skin infection, a history of excessive scarring, multiple severe allergies, or pigmentation disorders, we may recommend an alternative treatment or recommend that you wait to receive this treatment.
Also, be sure to let us know if you are planning on undergoing a chemical peel, laser treatment, or another procedure after your SKINVIVE treatment, as there is a possible risk of inflammatory reaction at the treatment site.

Your SKINVIVE Procedure
SKINVIVE is skillfully injected into the designated treatment areas. Over the next couple of days after treatment, the microdroplets of HA will soften and smooth the skin, leaving you glowing. Treatment is quick, taking only about 15-20 minutes to complete.
After Your SKINVIVE Procedure
We advise that you minimize strenuous activity and exercise and exposure to heat for the first 24 hours after treatment for optimal treatment results. It’s also best to avoid alcohol during this time to reduce swelling and promote healing in the treated area.
Results from SKINVIVE by Juvéderm can last up to six months, providing long-lasting hydration and glowing skin. This hyaluronic acid microdroplet injectable helps the skin retain its natural moisture, which in turn stimulates collagen production to enhance skin quality and elasticity. Many patients treated notice their skin looked smoother and more refreshed, resulting in a radiant complexion and lasting glow that sets SKINVIVE apart from traditional fillers.
