Before Your Treatment

Avoid Blood Thinners
Refrain from taking blood-thinning medications or supplements (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, or vitamin E) for 5-7 days before treatment to minimize the risk of bruising.

Limit Alcohol
Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours prior to your appointment to reduce swelling and bruising.

Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your treatment to help optimize your skin's hydration.

Avoid Certain Treatments
Do not undergo other facial treatments, such as peels or lasers, within 1-2 weeks before your SKINVIVE™ session.

Notify Your Provider
Inform your provider of any medical conditions, medications, or allergies, and discuss any skin concerns or goals during your consultation.

During Your Treatment

Consultation
Your provider will assess your skin and discuss your goals to determine the best treatment plan.

Preparation
The treatment area will be cleansed, and a numbing cream may be applied to enhance comfort.

Injection Process
SKINVIVE™ is administered using a fine needle or cannula to deliver hyaluronic acid evenly into the dermis. The procedure typically takes 30 minutes or less.

Post-Treatment Care
Your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions and answer any questions about your recovery process.

After Your Treatment

Avoid Touching the Area
Do not touch, massage, or apply pressure to the treated area for at least 24 hours.

Stay Cool
Avoid heat exposure, such as saunas, hot tubs, or intense workouts, for 48 hours post-treatment.

Skip Alcohol and Blood Thinners
Refrain from alcohol and blood-thinning medications or supplements for 24-48 hours to reduce swelling and bruising.

Apply Cold Compresses
Use a cold compress for 10-15 minutes at a time if you experience mild swelling or discomfort.

Use Gentle Skincare
Avoid exfoliating or harsh skincare products for 3-5 days. Opt for gentle cleansers and moisturizers, and always wear SPF 30+ sunscreen to protect the treated area.

Expected Results

Immediate Effects
Your skin may appear slightly plumper and hydrated immediately after the treatment, with minor redness or swelling that subsides within 24-48 hours.

Full Results

Long-Lasting Results
Results typically last up to 6 months, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and maintenance.
