About Skinvive
WHAT IT IS
Skinvive is a unique injectable skin booster made with stabilized hyaluronic acid designed to improve the skin’s hydration, texture, and overall glow. Unlike traditional fillers, Skinvive is not used for volume or structure—it is designed specifically to enhance skin smoothness and radiance, especially in the cheeks. It is for all Fitzpatrick skin types and provides a refreshed, dewy appearance with minimal downtime.
HOW IT WORKS
Skinvive is delivered via microdroplet injections into the dermis, where hyaluronic acid attracts and retains water to boost hydration and improve skin quality. As the product integrates into the skin, it enhances elasticity, supports the skin barrier, and improves overall smoothness without adding bulk.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Each treatment takes approximately 30 minutes. After applying a topical numbing agent, your provider will perform a series of microinjections to the cheeks using a fine needle. The product contains lidocaine for added comfort. Mild swelling, redness, or pinpoint bumps may occur and typically resolve within 24–48 hours. Most clients begin to see visible improvements in hydration and glow within one week, with results lasting up to six months.
