Tight, dewy, camera-ready skin—without adding volume

Skinvive is an FDA-cleared micro-droplet hyaluronic acid (HA) skin booster designed to increase skin hydration, smooth fine texture, and boost light-reflecting radiance for up to several months. At UE Plastic Surgery in Gangnam, our female board-certified facial specialist personalizes micro-injection patterns and depths for a refined, natural finish—never puffy or overfilled.

Why Patients Choose Skinvive

• Noticeably smoother cheek skin and refined texture
• Dewy, glass-skin glow that looks good on and off camera
• No change to facial shape (not a volumizing filler)
• Minimal downtime; makeup typically next day
• Plays well with laser lifting, RF microneedling, HIFU, and light peels

Are You a Good Candidate?

• Fine textural irregularities, dullness, or mild crepiness (cheeks)
• Dehydrated skin that looks tired under makeup or studio lights
• Prefer non-volumizing boosters with subtle, uniform smoothing
• Post-procedure maintenance after lasers or threads
• Healthy skin, no active infection; realistic expectations (may need 1–2 syringes per session)

How Skinvive Works

Ultra-smooth HA is placed as micro-droplets in the superficial dermis across the cheeks. This draws and holds water, improving optical smoothness, elasticity, and luminosity—without projecting or adding contour.

Treatment Areas We Commonly Address

• Primary: Cheeks (most evidence and best glow payoff)
• Selective add-ons (case-by-case): peri-malar, lateral cheek, jawline “polish” zones

What to Expect at Your Visit

• Assessment: Skin hydration, pore size, fine lines, makeup behavior, and photo map
• Session Time: ~20–30 minutes (plus consent and numbing where needed)
• Comfort: Topical numbing and cooling; most patients tolerate easily
• Downtime: Pin-prick dots or faint redness 12–48 hours; tiny bumps settle as HA integrates

Results & Treatment Course

• Immediate dewy feel; best glow builds over 2–6 weeks
• Typical plan: 1 session (1–2 syringes), with an optional touch-up at 4–8 weeks
• Maintenance: about every 6–9 months depending on skin goals, seasons, and device routine

Aftercare Tips

• Gentle cleanse; SPF 50+ daily
• Avoid saunas, hot yoga, and strenuous exercise 24–48 hours
• Skip acids/retinoids for 2–3 nights if skin is reactive
• Do not massage unless specifically advised

Combination Plans for Best Harmony

• Laser Lifting / HIFU / RF Microneedling: tighten + refine, then Skinvive for glow
• PN/Exosomes/Skin Boosters: layered hydration and barrier support
• Light Peels / Toning Lasers: tone balance and pore polish
• HA Fillers or Fat Grafting: volume where needed; keep Skinvive for surface radiance

Safety & Suitability

• Not for pregnancy, breastfeeding, active infection, or recent isotretinoin
• Fitzpatrick-aware technique and conservative parameters to reduce pigment risk
• Performed by a board-certified facial specialist using sterile, single-use syringes

FAQs

How is Skinvive different from fillers?
Skinvive does not add shape or projection; it’s for surface hydration and texture smoothing. Traditional fillers shape and contour.

Is it painful?
Most find it very tolerable with topical numbing and cooling. You’ll feel quick pin-pricks.

How many syringes do I need?
Commonly 1–2 syringes for full-cheek coverage; we tailor to pore size, dryness, and texture goals.

When can I wear makeup?
Usually the next day once the pin-prick sites are closed.

How long do results last?
Glow typically persists 6–9 months, varying by skin type, routine, and environment.
