Skinvive in Portland

Welcome to the world of Skinvive, a revolutionary treatment that promises to redefine skin hydration and smoothness. At Gilson Plastic Surgery, we are proud to introduce this cutting-edge treatment to our esteemed clientele in Portland, Oregon.

What is SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM®?

SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM® is the first and only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid (HA) microdroplet injectable in the US designed specifically to enhance the smoothness of the cheeks. With its unique formulation, Skinvive offers:

• Enhanced Hydration: Increases skin hydration, ensuring a smoother texture and a lasting glow for up to 6 months with optimal treatment.

• Clinically Proven Results: Patients treated with SKINVIVE™ have reported higher satisfaction, noting their skin appeared more glowing, hydrated, refreshed, and healthy.

How Does SKINVIVE™ Work?

Hyaluronic acid, a natural component of our skin, is renowned for its moisture-retaining properties. The modified hyaluronic acid in SKINVIVE™:

• Keeps your skin hydrated, promoting a healthy and radiant appearance.

• Improves cheek skin smoothness, making the skin look hydrated, healthy, and glowing.

• Increases the skin's natural ability to retain moisture and softness, particularly enhancing the skin smoothness of the cheeks.

Unlike traditional fillers that augment facial contours, Skinvive focuses on enhancing the skin's quality, making it appear glowing and radiant.

Who Can Benefit from SKINVIVE™?

Skinvive is suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types (I-VI). If you're seeking a subtle yet effective boost to your skin's hydration and texture, Skinvive might be the perfect solution for you.

What to Expect During and After the Treatment?

• Procedure: Your dermatologist will place droplet injections of Skinvive superficially, targeting the outer layer of your skin (epidermis).

• Side Effects: Common side effects are mild and temporary, including swelling, bruising, redness, tenderness, or firmness at the injection site. These typically resolve within seven days of the treatment.

• Results: Initial plumping can be observed shortly after the treatment, but full results develop over a few weeks. The enhancement focuses on skin quality, offering a more subtle outcome than volumizing fillers.
