What is SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM®?
SKINVIVE™ is the first and only hyaluronic acid microdroplet injectable indicated to improve hydration and skin smoothness of the cheeks.
As we age, our skin loses its ability to stay hydrated—a key reason for many skin quality issues. SKINVIVE™ increases hydration to improve skin smoothness and provide a lasting glow for up to 6 months with optimal treatment.
SKINVIVE™ is great for all skin tones, leaving skin look healthy, refresh, and glowing.
What are the benefits of SKINVIVE™?
- It is a hyaluronic acid microdroplet injectable that smooths and improves skin texture by increasing hydration in the skin and boosting collagen.
- Reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dry or crepey skin.
- SKINVIVE™ is injected as tiny, intradermal microdroplets of hyaluronic acid within the dermis layer, so you won’t see any change in the shape or volume of your face—just healthier looking skin for a lasting natural glow.
- The 15 minute treatment gives you plump, glowing, youthful cheeks that last up to 6 months.
- SKINVIVE™ is a nonsurgical and noninvasive treatment, making it a convenient option for those seeking facial rejuvenation without the downtime of surgery.

How does SKINVIVE™ work?
SKINVIVE™ is made of modified hyaluronic acid, a molecule that naturally occurs in your skin. SKINVIVE™ microdroplet injections replenish your cheeks with hyaluronic acid to hydrate from within. SKINVIVE™ is designed to help the skin retain its natural moisture and softness leading to an improvement in the skin smoothness of the cheeks. For healthy, radiant skin, hydration is the key.

Is SKINVIVE™ a filler?
Since SKINVIVE™ is hyaluronic acid, it is technically a filler. However, the modified hyaluronic acid SKINVIVE™ is designed to improve cheek smoothness and hydrate from within for smooth texture and a radiant glow—without changing your face shape or volume.
Is SKINVIVE™ a moisturizer?
You may have seen hyaluronic acid as an ingredient in moisturizing creams or serums. In SKINVIVE™, hyaluronic acid attracts water within your skin to keep your cheeks hydrated and smooth looking.
Preparing for Your SKINVIVE™ Treatment
We’ve compiled key information to address everything from what to expect during your appointment to how long the results might last.
| Preparing for Treatment | Discuss any medications or supplements you take with your injector. They may recommend stopping certain ones a few days before treatment for safety reasons. |
| Discomfort During Injection | SKINVIVE™ uses a small needle, and people often describe the injection as a pinch. If you’re concerned about discomfort or are sensitive needles, talk to your injector about options like icing the area or numbing cream. |
| Downtime | SKINVIVE™ requires minimal downtime. You may experience some temporary redness or swelling at the injection site, but this usually resolves within a few hours. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately following treatment. |
| Side Effects | Temporary side effects like swelling, redness, tenderness, bruising, or firmness at the injection site are common. These typically go away within a few days. More serious side effects are rare, but it’s important to discuss all potential risks with your injector before treatment. |
| Treatment Frequency | People in the SKINVIVE™ clinical study experienced cheek skin smoothness lasting consistently through 6 months and reported high satisfaction with how glowing, hydrated, refreshed, and healthy their skin looked through 6 months. |
| Seeing Results | You may see results within the next day or two after treatment. |

What warnings should my doctor advise me about?
- One of the risks with dermal filler injection is the unintentional injection into a blood vessel. The chances of this happening are very small, but if it does happen, the complications can be serious and may be permanent. These complications, which have been reported for facial injections, can include vision abnormalities, blindness, stroke, temporary scabs, or permanent scarring of the skin. Most of these events are irreversible. Tell your specialist immediately if you have changes in your vision, signs of a stroke (including sudden difficulty speaking, numbness or weakness in your face, arms or legs, difficulty walking, face drooping, severe headache, dizziness, or confusion), white appearance of the skin, or unusual pain during or shortly after treatment
- The use of this product where skin sores, pimples, rashes, hives, cysts, or infections are present should be postponed, as this may delay healing or make skin problems worse
- The effectiveness of removal of any dermal filler has not been studied
What precautions should my doctor advise me about?
- Minimize strenuous exercise, exposure to extensive sun or heat, and alcoholic beverages within the first 24 hours following treatment. Exposure to any of these may cause temporary redness, swelling, and/or itching at the injection site
- Tell your doctor if you are using any medication that can prolong bleeding, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or other blood thinners. As with any injection, this may increase bruising or bleeding at the injection site
- Tell your doctor if you are planning laser treatment, chemical peeling, or any other procedure after SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM®. There is a possible risk of an inflammatory reaction at the treatment site
- This product is intended for improving skin smoothness of the cheeks. The safety and effectiveness for treatment in other areas of the body have not been established
- Tell your doctor if you are on therapy used to decrease the body’s immune response. Use may result in an increased risk of infection
- Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. The safety for use during pregnancy, or in women who are breastfeeding, has not been studied
- Tell your doctor if you have a history of excessive scarring (thick, hard scars). The safety of this product in patients with a history of excessive scarring has not been studied and may result in additional scars
- Tell your specialist if you have a history of pigmentation disorders, as use of this product in patients with a history of pigmentation disorders has not been studied and may result in changes in pigmentation
What are the possible side effects of treatment?
The most commonly reported side effects were redness, lumps/bumps, swelling, bruising, pain, tenderness, firmness, discoloration and itching. Most side effects will resolve within 7 days. If they persist longer, your physician may choose to treat them with medications, such as antibiotics, steroids, or hyaluronidase. Additionally, there have been reports of inflammation, nodules, unsatisfactory result, loss or lack of improvement, allergic reaction, anxiety, blood vessel blockage, infection, dry skin, increase or decrease in sensation, and abscess.
Delayed-onset inflammation near the site of dermal filler injections is one of the known adverse events associated with dermal fillers. As with all skin injection procedures, there is a risk of infection.
To report a side effect, please call the Allergan® Product Support Department at 1-877-345-5372. Please also visit SKINVIVE.com or talk to your doctor for more information.
