If you’re looking to combat dull, dry skin this Winter with a radiant glow, one of the most exciting breakthroughs in aesthetic medicine is Skinvive! It is a revolutionary injectable moisturizer designed to improve overall skin quality.
What is Skinvive?
Skinvive is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that uses hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the skin known for its powerful hydrating properties. Unlike dermal fillers, which are used to add volume or reshape facial contours, Skinvive helps to improve the skin’s overall appearance by enhancing its texture, elasticity, and hydration level from the inside out. From a scientific perspective, Skinvive’s works by stimulating the production of aquaporin-3 proteins (AQP3) in cells after treatment. AQP3 facilitates the flow of water and glycerol into and out of cells. This treatment is part of a growing category of skin boosters that focus on skin rejuvenation rather than structural augmentation.
How Does Skinvive Work?
Skinvive is injected into the dermis, the skin’s middle layer, using fine needles. The hyaluronic acid in Skinvive acts as a moisture magnet, attracting and retaining water in the skin. This process results in:
- Deep Hydration: Skin appears more radiant and supple.
- Improved Texture: Fine lines, rough patches, and uneven skin tone are minimized.
- Enhanced Elasticity: The skin becomes firmer and more resilient over time.
- A Natural Glow: Without adding volume, Skinvive gives the skin a healthy, luminous finish.
Over the weeks following treatment, the hyaluronic acid stimulates collagen production, further enhancing the skin’s firmness and texture for long-lasting results.
Who is Skinvive for?
Skinvive is an excellent option for individuals seeking to improve their skin’s quality without the dramatic changes associated with traditional fillers or Botox. It’s suitable for:
- All Skin Types: Whether your skin is dry, oily, or combination, Skinvive can help restore balance.
- Those with Early Signs of Aging: Fine lines, mild wrinkles, and dullness are effectively addressed.
- People Looking for Preventative Care: Younger individuals can use Skinvive to maintain skin health and delay the onset of aging.
Results and Longevity
Most patients notice an improvement in their skin’s texture, hydration, and radiance within 2-4 weeks of treatment. The results are natural-looking and one session can last up to 6 months, depending on the individual’s skin type and lifestyle. To maintain optimal results, follow-up treatments are typically recommended every 4-6 months.
