SKINVIVE is an injectable skin booster that is designed to improve skin hydration, smoothness, and radiance. It contains hyaluronic acid (HA), which helps retain moisture and improve overall skin texture.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers that add volume, SKINVIVE is a hydrating microdroplet injection that enhances the skin’s glow without altering facial structure.
SKINVIVE hydrafiller treatment involves injecting small microdroplets of HA just under the skin, typically in the cheeks, where it spreads evenly to boost hydration and smooth fine lines. It’s different from traditional HA fillers, which are injected deeper to add volume.
SKINVIVE is generally well-tolerated, but like any injectable treatment, it does come with potential side effects.
Common Side Effects (Usually mild & temporary)
