SKINVIVE
Vancouver, WA
When it comes to injectable treatments, not everyone wants volume. Maybe you just want skin that’s hydrated, radiant, and smooth.
That’s where Skinvive by Juvéderm comes in. It’s not a filler. It’s not skincare in a jar. It’s something new. Skinvive is the first FDA-approved injectable specifically designed to improve cheek skin quality, enhance hydration, and give a subtle, healthy glow. Think of it as injectable skincare for people who want to feel refreshed without looking "done." At Camas Med Spa, we use Skinvive to help our clients get that post-facial “bounce” every day. If your skin’s feeling dull, dehydrated, or textured and you’re looking for something that works deeper than a cream, we’d love to help.
Skinvive by Juvéderm is a next-generation hyaluronic acid injectable designed to hydrate and smooth skin without adding volume.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which are used to sculpt and shape, Skinvive works more like an injectable moisturizer, targeting the skin on the cheeks to improve skin texture, luminosity, and hydration from the inside out.
This treatment is ideal for people dealing with dullness, roughness, or skin that’s lost its bounce, especially in the mid-face. It also makes a great complement to other treatments like Botox, traditional dermal fillers, Sofwave, or microneedling. We also recommend SkinVive 2-4 weeks before major laser treatments to prep and hydrate the skin. It can also be done 4 weeks after laser treatments.
The Skinvive treatment is quick, gentle, and requires no prep. After a consultation and skin assessment, we’ll apply a topical numbing cream to ensure comfort.
Then, using microdroplet injections, your aesthetic nurse injector will place the product evenly across both cheeks. The appointment usually takes about 45 minutes. Most people describe it as very tolerable, feeling like tiny pinches or pressure. Afterward, you may notice minor swelling, redness, or firmness at the injection site, which typically subsides within a day or two. There’s no need for downtime so that you can head right back to your day.
Skinvive is designed to treat skin quality, not volume. It’s best for improving:
This unique injectable is an excellent option for people who’ve invested in creams and facials but are still struggling with bounce or clarity, especially those looking for a non-surgical refresh.
What Are the Benefits of Skinvive?
Skinvive bridges the gap between topical skincare and injectable treatments, offering results that you can’t achieve with a serum alone. Here’s what people love about it:
Results develop over the first 1–2 weeks and can last up to 6 months. You’ll still look like you, just glowier!
Skinvive is a great option for anyone who wants healthier-looking skin without changing the contours of their face. If you’ve been noticing dullness, dryness, or rough texture, especially in the cheeks, it’s worth considering. Many people who choose Skinvive aren’t ready for volume-based fillers or simply don’t need them. They’re looking for something light, refreshing, and results-driven.
This treatment works well for a wide range of skin types and ages, especially for those in their 30s to 60s who want to improve hydration, glow, and smoothness in a way that feels subtle but meaningful. If you’re already investing in skincare and not quite seeing the payoff, or you want a no-fuss entry point into injectables, Skinvive might be a perfect fit.
As always, we’ll take a close look at your skin, lifestyle, and overall goals during your consultation to make sure this treatment is safe, effective, and aligned with what you’re hoping to achieve.
There’s very little to do after your Skinvive appointment.
Some people experience mild redness, swelling, firmness, or tiny bumps at the injection site that typically resolve within 24–48 hours. We’ll give you simple aftercare instructions, but most people are back to work or errands immediately. You should avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours to help minimize swelling and keep your skin calm as Skinvive goes to work behind the scenes.
Results from Skinvive don’t appear overnight, but when they do, they feel incredibly natural. Most people begin to notice a change within one to two weeks as hydration builds beneath the skin’s surface. Cheeks often look smoother, more supple, and subtly brighter. The improvement isn’t dramatic. Instead, it’s the kind of glow that makes people wonder if you’ve just gotten a great night’s sleep or found a skincare product that finally works.
Because Skinvive is formulated to work within the skin, not beneath it, you won’t see puffiness or plumping. What you will notice is skin that reflects light better, holds onto moisture longer, and feels better under makeup, or without it! Results typically last up to six months, making it a great treatment to schedule seasonally or as part of a long-term skin health plan. With Skinvive, you’ll still look like yourself, just more refreshed, more hydrated, and more luminous.
At Camas Med Spa, we love Skinvive for what it represents: low-maintenance treatments that help you love your skin without changing your face.
We use it to support people who want to age comfortably and naturally, without looking overdone. Our team has deep experience in injectables, skin health, and facial harmony. And because we’re Vancouver’s #1 med spa, you can trust we’ll guide you with honesty, care, and attention to detail.
No. SKINVIVE is not a volumizing filler. It’s a hydrating injectable made from hyaluronic acid that improves skin texture and hydration without altering facial volume.
Results can last up to 6 months with a single treatment. Many people choose to have SKINVIVE treatments twice a year to maintain that hydrated, fresh glow.
Most people find the treatment very tolerable. We use a numbing cream before treatment and tiny needles for injection. Mild pressure or pinching is normal but brief.
Expect a visible difference in glow and texture within 1–2 weeks. It’s a subtle shift, but one most people (and their friends) notice quickly.
Absolutely. SKINVIVE pairs beautifully with other treatments, such as Botox, dermal fillers, microneedling, or medical-grade skincare. We’ll help design a treatment plan tailored to your goals, preferences, and schedule.
Downtime is very minimal. You may see some swelling or redness, but you can return to most activities right away. Just avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours.
Yes. SKINVIVE works well for a wide range of ages, especially those noticing dryness or a loss of radiance in the mid-face.
