Who Are SKINVIVE Treatments in Echo Park Right For?
What to Expect With a SKINVIVE Injection at Parfaire
Utilizing the microdroplet injection method, SKINVIVE is administered.
Following Dr. Moses’ examination of your medical history and his confirmation of SKINVIVE’s suitability for you, you’ll be prepared to undergo the treatment.
Preceding the injection, the treatment area will be cleansed and numbed using a topical numbing cream. Then, Dr. Moses will delicately inject numerous small droplets of SKINVIVE using an ultrafine needle. Typically, the treatment session lasts about 15 minutes.
Utilizing topical numbing cream, a fine needle, and a small dose of lidocaine already mixed in SKINVIVE ensures minimal discomfort and recovery time. Additionally, the small needle reduces the risk of permanent scarring.
Temporary redness, tenderness, or slight swelling at the injection site might occur, which are normal during skin injection procedures and generally improve within a few hours to one week. Using ice packs and taking over-the-counter pain relievers can facilitate quicker healing.
How Soon Will I See Results from SKINVIVE?
Skin smoothness tends to improve within just 5 to 7 days. With optimal treatment, the results can last for up to 6 months.
Can SKINVIVE™ be Combined with Other Cosmetic Procedures?
Yes. It’s common to combine SKINVIVE™ injections with other cosmetic procedures like Botox or traditional dermal fillers such as JUVÉDERM to target multiple facial concerns concurrently. This combined approach to treatments could provide a more comprehensive rejuvenation and customized response to your aesthetic desires.
Are there Lifestyle Factors that Could Affect the Longevity of SKINVIVE™ Injections?
SKINVIVE™ injections are known for their ability to improve skin smoothness and quality, but it’s worth considering that lifestyle factors such as smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and poor skincare habits could impact the results.
To maximize the benefits of SKINVIVE™ treatments and extend their effectiveness, it’s important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and sufficient hydration.
SKINVIVE Injection Risks & Side Effects
Although SKINVIVE™ is generally safe, side effects like redness, swelling, bruising, and itching at the injection site may occur. These symptoms usually disappear within a week, but if they persist, it’s important to inform your healthcare provider.
Severe allergic reactions such as inflammation and infection are rare but possible. Individuals with multiple severe allergies should consult an allergist prior to treatment. In very rare instances, severe headache or dizziness might occur after injections.
Despite the risks involved, when administered safely and under the guidance of qualified medical professionals, SKINVIVE™ can offer considerable benefits.
SKINVIVE vs Other Dermal Filler Injections
Traditional dermal fillers like JUVÉDERM, Botox, and Kybella consist of gel formulations crafted to lift, augment, and contour facial features.
SKINVIVE™ is a hydration booster containing hyaluronic acid with a water-like texture, designed to enhance skin smoothness, including that of the cheeks. It does not, however, impact the contours or structure of your face.
Furthermore, SKINVIVE™ is injected into the skin at a shallow depth, distinguishing it from other facial fillers that are typically placed in deeper layers of the skin.
SKINVIVE™ vs Traditional Skincare Routines or Topical Treatments
SKINVIVE™ offers a targeted approach by delivering hyaluronic acid directly into the skin through microdroplet injections, leading to deep hydration and enhanced skin smoothness. Unlike topical treatments, which may lack the depth for significant results, SKINVIVE™ acts at a deeper level, providing more noticeable and enduring effects.
How Much Does SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM® Cost?
The price for optimal treatment varies, typically ranging from $600 to $1000 per session. With injections scheduled every six months, plan for an annual expenditure of $1200 to $2000.
