For smooth, glowing, and healthy-looking skin!
What is Skinvive™ by Juvéderm®?
Skinvive by Juvéderm is the first and only hyaluronic acid microdroplet injectable skin booster that improves skin hydration and smoothness. Skinvive’s modified hyaluronic acid gel formula hydrates skin from within and helps the skin retain its natural moisture and softness. Results include smoother, glowing, and radiant skin that lasts for 6 months.
What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a natural, water-attracting molecule naturally found in your skin that decreases with age and sun exposure. Hyaluronic acid in the epidermis and dermis plays a key roll in the level of skin hydration, and increased hydration creates smoothness and plumpness of the skin.
Benefits of Skinvive
- Hydration – Skinvive increases skin hydration, giving it a dewy, youthful appearance. Unlike lotions or creams, Skinvive hydrates from within.

- Wrinkles and fine lines – Skinvive reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
- Pores – Skinvive minimizes the appearance of pores.
- Healthier-looking skin no matter your skin type or tone.
- Long-lasting results – Skinvive provides lasting results for up to six months with only one treatment.
- Natural treatment – hyaluronic acid is a natural substance in your body and not a foreign substance.
- FDA approved and clinically proven.

Results
Results are visible immediately after treatment, but optimal results are usually visible after a few weeks. The hyaluronic acid in Skinvive starts working right away to increase hydration, and over time it disperses and integrates with the skin tissue, improving skin texture and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The full effects of Skinvive can last up to 6–9 months.
What to expect during your Skinvive treatment
Multiple microdroplet injections are placed just below the surface of the skin on your face. This treatment is very similar to Botox injections. Lidocaine is an ingredient in Skinvive to keep you comfortable. Numbing prior to the treatment is available. The treatment takes about 15 minutes. Numbing prior to treatment takes 20 minutes.
Is Skinvive™ By Juvéderm® a filler?
Skinvive is made of hyaluronic acid, similar to traditional filler products. However, the modified hyaluronic acid in Skinvive is designed to improve skin smoothness and hydrate from within for smooth texture and a radiant glow—without changing your face shape or volume. Therefore, Skinvive is not a filler. This treatment pairs well with Botox, Dysport, and other aesthetic treatments.
How often will I need treatments?
The results of Skinvive are clinically proven to last up to 6 months. We recommend one treatment every 6 months for optimal and continued results.
Is Skinvive™ by Juvederm® a moisturizer?
You may have seen hyaluronic acid as an ingredient in moisturizing creams or serums. In SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM®, hyaluronic acid attracts water within your skin to keep your skin hydrated and smooth.
