When will I see results from Skinvive?
Initial results in 2–4 weeks, with full results developing over 3 months as collagen builds. San Diego providers typically schedule follow-ups to track progress.
Can I wear makeup after Skinvive?
Most patients wait 24 hours before applying makeup to avoid irritation on freshly-treated skin.
Is Skinvive a filler?
It is made of hyaluronic acid like fillers, but it is formulated and placed differently. Fillers are thicker gels injected deeper to add volume and shape. Skinvive is a thin gel injected as tiny droplets just under the skin surface across the cheeks, where it holds water and improves the skin's texture and glow without changing contours. Approved for exactly that use, it is the first product of its kind in the US.
What does it feel like and what is the recovery?
A series of small, quick injections across each cheek, usually with numbing cream. Afterward, small bumps at the injection points are normal and settle within a day or two, with mild swelling for a few days. The glow becomes visible over one to two weeks as the product integrates.
How long does it last?
About six months in trials, with many people reporting improvement toward the end of that window. Repeat treatments maintain the result. It does not build volume over time; each treatment refreshes the skin quality.
What does it cost?
Typically $600 to $1,000 for both cheeks, depending on the city and the number of syringes used. It is priced per treatment rather than per syringe at most clinics. For a six-month result, many people compare it to a series of facials and find it holds up.
