What Is SkinVive?
SkinVive by Juvéderm® is an innovative new aesthetic treatment that recently received FDA approval. While SkinVive is an injectable gel to address facial aging, it is not a typical dermal filler. Rather, SkinVive is a hyaluronic acid (HA) intradermal microdroplet injection treatment that improves the appearance of common signs of facial aging like lines and wrinkles and restores skin hydration for up to six months.
SkinVive does not affect the shape or volume of the face. Instead, it delivers a unique HA formula deep into the skin’s dermis layer to improve the skin’s overall quality, enhancing smoothness and elasticity for a healthier-looking appearance. By replenishing hydration and stimulating collagen production, SkinVive effectively addresses signs of aging like fine lines, wrinkles, and folds.
With one SkinVive treatment, you can experience plumper, more youthful-looking skin with results that rejuvenate your overall appearance for up to six months. SkinVive can revitalize the signs of aging in the:
