Dermal and soft tissue injectable treatments have quickly become go-to options for facial rejuvenation. They work by restoring lost fullness and smoothness to the skin. They are often injected beneath the skin to plump and reshape. While these treatments can be beneficial for many people, others can benefit from a different type of injectable treatment that delivers lost hydration and brilliance. SKINVIVE is one of the latest injectable treatments available from the trusted professionals at JUVÉDERM for adults aged 21 and up. On this page, you can learn more about this innovative formulation that is often referred to as a booster rather than a filler because it delivers smoother, more hydrated skin differently than traditional fillers.
SKINVIVE is an injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal filler gel. This gel is injected as multiple microdroplets over the entire cheek. Because it contains hyaluronic acid, it boosts the skin’s hydration, and patients who received this treatment reported skin that glowed and appeared healthy and refreshed. The results typically take 2-4 weeks to fully settle in and can last 6 months or longer.
Some of the many benefits of facial rejuvenation with SKINVIVE include:
SKINVIVE is often referred to as a lunch break cosmetic dermatology solution because the entire treatment only takes about fifteen minutes. The results of just one SKINVIVE treatment will typically last for up to six months, so retreatment is usually needed twice a year. You will feel a small pinch during the injections, but this is an overall very well-tolerated procedure. During injection, the aesthetic provider carefully positions the filler to smooth the cheek. After treatment, skin may feel a bit numb or tingly as the lidocaine wears off, but patients can return to their regular routine immediately after treatment. Bruising typically does not occur and if it does, is minimal.
While side effects following SKINVIVE are rare, some patients did report experiencing minor redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness, and itching that resolved within a week. Other side effects were rare.
Many patients choose SKINVIVE by JUVÉDERM because it’s one of the few facial rejuvenation options on the market designed and formulated specifically to improve hydration and boost the smoothness of the cheeks, and it was developed by the trusted professionals at JUVÉDERM. Additionally, the use of HA in the filler improves the body’s natural water retention for healthier and more hydrated skin. The lidocaine in the filler makes the treatment more comfortable.

We all have to age, but that doesn’t mean we don’t deserve to age gracefully and feel confident and beautiful. Facial rejuvenation with SKINVIVE supports this goal, allowing patients to age more gracefully and feel more like themselves at every age.
