What Is Skinvive™?

Skinvive™ is one of many Juvederm® injectable dermal fillers made with hyaluronic acid (HA). HA is a substance already found in the body. Due to its unique chemical composition, HA can absorb large quantities of surrounding water, making it an ideal ingredient in many injectable therapies for creating rejuvenated, younger-looking skin free of minor to moderate wrinkles and fine lines.

However, HA fillers are also well-known for their volumizing qualities, especially when it comes to adding lift and definition to the cheeks. This can be a boon for some clients, but others only want the topical results.

That’s where Skinvive™ comes in. The Skinvive™ formula contains multiple tiny microdroplets of hyaluronic acid gel. These microdroplets are injected between the dermal layers, just below the surface, allowing for increased skin hydration without adding volume underneath.

Am I a Good Candidate for Skinvive™?

Skinvive™ is available for most clients 21 and older of any skin type and tone. During your consultation, one of our well-trained and professional estheticians will examine your medical history and allergies to make sure you are a suitable candidate for Skinvive™.

If you are currently experiencing any of the following, we will likely recommend waiting to receive this treatment:

• Pregnancy or breastfeeding
• Acne
• Sores
• Rashes

The Skinvive™ Session

If approved for Skinvive™, your session will take place in our relaxing and state-of-the-art medical spa in Arcadia. While Skinvive™ already contains lidocaine, we may also provide a topical numbing cream for extra comfort. After that, a series of Skinvive™ injections are used to meticulously administer the HA microdroplets into the cheek dermal tissue where necessary to obtain your desired results.
