Revive skin from within with Skinvive™, a revolutionary HA-based filler from the Juvéderm® family
Revive the texture and natural radiance of your skin with Skinvive™, one of the newest additions to the line-up of skin-transforming cosmetic treatments available to our Tualatin, Oregon area neighbors at Bridgeport Laser & Wellness Center. A member of the Juvéderm® family of injectable filler products, Skinvive™ is specially formulated to restore the dewy appearance and healthy smoothness of the cheeks among patients aged 21 and older.
What is Skinvive™?
Skinvive™ is characterized as the first and only Hyaluronic Acid-based microdroplet filler to be approved by the FDA. Due to its unique design, Skinvive™ is applied to the underlying dermis layer of the skin as small “microdroplets” of HA. So, natural facial shape and volume is retained.
How do you apply Skinvive™?
All fillers at our center are precisely yet gently injected into the specific points of the face that could use the enhancement the most. In addition to supporting natural results, this approach helps to minimize the risk of rare and adverse side effects.
Can I benefit from Skinvive™?
Many patients of all complexions can benefit from a Skinvive™ “glow-up”; however, treatment may need to be postponed to a later date if you have an active infection or inflammation at the treatment areas. Additionally, we can recommend other interventions for individuals with a history of severe allergies or other contraindications, which will always review prior to treatment and as part of your consultation.
What can I expect the day of my appointment?
If we find that Skinvive™ is right for you, treatment takes around 15 minutes. The tiny HA microdroplets are applied to the “mid-face.” Skinvive™ is formulated with lidocaine for added comfort. So, it is tolerated well. As a “moisture-loving” molecule naturally present in the skin, HA-based Skinvive™ hydrates from within. It is designed to keep your cheeks smooth, glowing, and quenched.
How long does Skinvive™ last?
The results from Skinvive™ can stick around for up to six months. Our providers discuss maintenance treatment sessions to support these radiant boosts to our patients’ appearance and skin softness. Allergan Aesthetics, the makers of Skinvive™ and Juvéderm® fillers, reports that those who underwent treatment were more satisfied with the appearance of their skin compared to those who did not enjoy the results from this innovative HA microdroplet therapy.
What are “normal” side effects?
Here again, with our skill on your side, adverse and rare serious side effects are minimized. However, the most common effects reported with Skinvive™ include injection-site redness, swelling, bruising, tenderness, and itching. These effects typically subside within seven days. Downtime is also minimal, especially when compared to more aggressive resurfacing techniques and invasive surgical intervention for facial rejuvenation.
How do I care for my skin afterward?
To minimize complications, we ask that you avoid strenuous activities or exposure to UV light, heat, and alcohol consumption for 24 hours post-treatment.
