SKINVIVE™

SKINVIVE^™ is a dermal filler, which is an injectable gel that adds volume beneath the surface of the skin. While some fillers are thicker, robust substances designed to reduce facial creases and restore a more even look by addressing facial hollows, SKINVIVE^™ takes a different approach.

Youthful-looking skin is buoyed by abundant moisture, especially in areas where hyaluronic acid is plentiful. The sugar molecule is found all throughout the body—especially in the skin, where it aids in hydration by holding onto 1,000 times its own weight in water!

Unfortunately, hyaluronic acid levels drop over time. SKINVIVE^™ counters this loss by providing hydration upon injection, as well as drawing in and holding onto moisture for a lasting well-hydrated look.

The texture of SKINVIVE^™ is closer to water, making it ideal for hydrating benefits that give the face a soft and dewy appearance.

The “star of the show” in this injectable is the hyaluronic acid. The formula also contains a very small amount of lidocaine, which reduces sensation in the injection site. This makes the treatment more comfortable.

Unlike fillers that are injected deep to provide improvements in facial contours, SKINVIVE^™ is introduced via microdroplets made just below the surface. These microdroplets then diffuse, forming a more even layer of hydration that can beautifully restore the entire treatment area.

A treatment session lasts only minutes, making visits quick and easy to fit into even hectic schedules

Some results are visible as soon as the injections are done, but the hydration-enhancing benefits will continue to improve over the following weeks. Many people see the full benefit of their SKINVIVE^™ session at about the one-month mark after their treatment. The resulting radiance and silky suppleness can last for about six months. Patients who want to maintain this maximized moisturization can return for a new round of injections, meaning just two visits a year can keep you looking moisturized and glowing.

There are many other amazing formulations in the Juvéderm^® family of dermal fillers, as well as the hyaluronic acid-based Restylane^® line. Other injectable filler options include collagen-inducing Sculptra^® and Radiesse^®.

For addressing lines related to contractions, wrinkle-relaxing BOTOX^®, Dysport^®, or Xeomin^® are the ideal options. The experienced and talented VITRA Aesthetics team will work directly with you to build a treatment plan designed to meet your unique needs and provide beautiful results!
