Reading Time: Three minutes
Say goodbye to dry, dull skin with SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM®. This skin hydration treatment boosts moisture, smoothness, and radiance.🌟
In this blog, we will discuss how Skinvive can help you achieve a radiant and youthful glow, regardless of your skin type. We will also cover the benefits and what to expect during and after treatment.
What Is Skinvive?
Skinvive is a hyaluronic acid gel indicated for intradermal injection to improve skin smoothness. A treatment that gives you healthier-looking skin without altering the shape of your face.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring substance found in our bodies that helps keep our skin hydrated and plump. As we age, our body decreases its production of HA, which leads to dryness, fine lines, and wrinkles.
The injected microdroplets of hyaluronic acid specifically target dry skin, working to replenish your skin's internal hydration levels. Unlike traditional fillers that are injected for volume, Skinvive is injected as microdroplets into the dermal layer of the skin. It enhances your skin's radiance from within, so your skin stays protected and hydrated.💦
The Skinvive Treatment Overview
Your treatment will begin with a consultation with our Nurse Injector, Carissa. She will assess your skin type, quality, texture, and tone to determine the best approach for you.
It's important to discuss any medical history or current use of blood thinners that may affect your eligibility for treatment. If you have a history of allergic reactions to hyaluronic acid fillers or a history of autoimmune disease, disclose this information as well.
Before the Treatment
The week before your treatment, you should avoid anti-inflammatories and alcoholic beverages. These activities can thin your blood and increase the risk of bruising during the procedure.
Before your treatment, we will apply a topical anesthetic to numb the area and minimize any discomfort.
During the Treatment
Carissa will carefully analyze your skin and map the injection sites for the best results. She will then use a fine needle to inject small amounts of Skinvive into targeted areas with precision.
The treated area may be gently massaged during or after the procedure for even distribution.
After the Treatment
After your treatment, you should avoid strenuous exercise and limit sun exposure for 24-48 hours to reduce swelling and minimize any risk of bruising or complications.
You may notice immediate improvements in skin hydration and smoothness. The full results will be seen within 4-6 weeks as the hyaluronic acid boosts hydration and integrates within your skin.
Results typically last 6–9 months, but twice-a-year treatments can maintain that radiant glow.
Who Can Benefit From Skinvive?
Anyone looking for a boost in their skin quality and overall appearance can benefit from Skinvive. It's an excellent option if you are seeking improvements in skin hydration, smoothness, and radiance.
You can benefit from Skinvive if you have:
Dry skin: Dry skin tends to show signs of aging more quickly due to the lack of moisture, making it prone to fine lines and wrinkles. By replenishing lost volume and providing hydration to the skin, Skinvive can significantly improve the crepey appearance of dry skin.
Young skin: If you have younger skin, you can benefit from Skinvive too! It's like injecting moisturizer just under the skin, so you will have a nice glow.
A busy lifestyle: Skinvive is a perfect choice as it requires minimal downtime and can be done in a quick office visit. It's an ideal treatment if you don’t want to alter your facial features but still desire healthier-looking skin.
Are There Any Risks or Side Effects?
Skinvive is a safe and FDA-approved treatment, but as with any cosmetic treatment, there are potential risks and side effects. Some common reactions include redness, bruising, swelling, tenderness, or itching at the injection site.
It's essential to disclose your medical history before the procedure, especially if you are taking any blood thinners or have a history of allergic reactions. You should also avoid Skinvive if you have recently had laser treatments or chemical peels.
