What Is Skinvive?

Skinvive is the first and only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid microdroplet injectable designed to improve skin quality on the cheeks. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that add volume or contour, Skinvive improves hydration, elasticity, and texture, giving the skin a healthy, radiant glow.

Injected just beneath the skin’s surface in tiny droplets, Skinvive spreads smoothly throughout the upper layers of skin to attract water, boost smoothness, and restore a youthful luminosity.

Your Consultation

During your consultation, Dr. Frankel will assess your skin quality, review your goals, and determine if Skinvive is the best treatment for your needs. He will explain the procedure in detail and customize a treatment plan just for you.

You'll be given the opportunity to ask questions and discuss other treatment options that can complement your Skinvive results.

How Much Does Skinvive Cost?

The cost of Skinvive treatment varies depending on the extent of treatment and number of syringes used. Dr. Frankel will provide a clear and detailed quote during your consultation based on your individual goals.

What to Expect During Skinvive Treatment

Skinvive treatment typically takes about 30 minutes in-office. After cleansing the treatment area, Dr. Frankel uses an ultra-fine needle or cannula to inject the product in a grid-like pattern across the cheeks. The product contains lidocaine to enhance comfort.

Most patients describe the treatment as quick and very tolerable, and you can return to your day immediately after the appointment.

Skinvive Recovery and Results

Skinvive requires no downtime. Some patients may experience mild swelling, redness, or small bumps at the injection site, which typically resolve within 24–48 hours.

Results begin to appear within a few days and improve over the following weeks. Skinvive can deliver a visibly smoother, more hydrated, and radiant complexion for up to 6 months or more.

Skinvive vs. Traditional Fillers

Unlike traditional dermal fillers like Voluma or Lyft that restore volume or reshape the face, Skinvive does not alter facial contours. Instead, it is designed to enhance skin quality by increasing hydration and elasticity. It offers subtle, skin-deep rejuvenation for patients who want to look refreshed but not "filled."

Complementary Treatments to Skinvive

To enhance the effects of Skinvive, Dr. Frankel may recommend pairing it with:

BOTOX® or Dysport® to reduce dynamic wrinkles
Microneedling to stimulate collagen production
CO2 laser or skin resurfacing to refine tone and texture
Medical-grade skincare for long-term maintenance

These treatments work well together to deliver a more complete, radiant result.
