SKINVIVE by Juvéderm for a smooth, glowing complexion
One of the best ways to improve skin quality is by enhancing hydration. SKINVIVE improves skin quality with hyaluronic acid. When injected below the skin’s outer layer, HA can attract and retain moisture at an incredible rate, which improves the quality of your skin. This revolutionary new HA gel provides lasting hydration that cannot be achieved with topicals alone. When the dermal layer benefits from better hydration, your skin will naturally have a smoother, more youthful appearance without the need for fillers.
Juvéderm’s SKINVIVE HA injectable filler is a great option for men and women, age 21 and older, looking to enhance the appearance of their skin. With as little as one treatment, SKINVIVE can leave your skin looking:
Getting your injections at Artemedica
You can be sure that when you receive your SKINVIVE injections at Artemedica, your appointment will be comfortable and your results stunning. SKINVIVE injectable HA gel contains a small amount of local anesthetic (lidocaine) which numbs the injection site, so that any discomfort or redness will be minimal. Patients typically report no pain at all but may experience a brief pinch. You may also be offered an ice pack or topical anesthetic to help with any irritation or swelling.
If you do feel any discomfort or anxiety before or during your treatment, you can always ask your provider about PRO NOX.
Recovery
After your treatment ends, you can return to your daily routine with minimal recovery and no downtime. Some patients experience swelling, bruising and redness at the injection site(s), but this should dissipate within a few days. If you experience any discomfort, apply an ice pack to the treated areas.
SKINVIVE Results
Most clinical study participants who received injections of SKINVIVE HA gel reported that the skin on their cheeks looked smoother immediately after just one injection. Some patients required one more treatment for optimal results. After receiving their optimal treatment of SKINVIVE injection, most patients reported smooth skin that lasted six months or more.
