I’m focused on improving skin hydration and smoothness with treatments that enhance my natural glow.

If you’re looking for smoother, more hydrated, and glowing skin without altering your natural facial features, SkinVive™ by Juvéderm® is an ideal choice. This innovative injectable treatment enhances skin texture, hydration, and luminosity using hyaluronic acid (HA) — a molecule naturally found in the skin that attracts and retains moisture.

At Cataleya Aesthetics in San Jose, California, we proudly offer SkinVive™, the first and only FDA-approved microdroplet injectable skin booster designed to improve skin quality and smoothness for up to six months. Whether you want to refresh the face alone or both the face and neck, SkinVive™ provides a lasting, natural-looking glow.

    What is SkinVive by Juvéderm?

    SkinVive™ is a microdroplet hyaluronic acid injectable designed specifically to improve skin hydration, texture, and smoothness — not to add volume. The formula uses finely tuned hyaluronic acid that attracts water within the dermis, enhancing your skin’s glow from the inside out.

    It’s ideal for clients seeking subtle, natural rejuvenation of the face or face and neck, helping restore a youthful, radiant complexion without changing facial expressions or contours.

SkinVive FAQ

What is the pricing for SkinVive?

Pricing depends on the area treated and the number of syringes required. Most clients need 2–3 syringes to treat the face or face and neck. Your provider will determine the exact amount during your consultation based on your skin’s hydration needs and goals.

How does SkinVive work?

SkinVive uses a modified form of hyaluronic acid (HA) to deliver deep hydration and improve skin elasticity. Injected as microdroplets just beneath the skin, the HA binds water and smooths the skin’s surface, leaving it visibly refreshed and glowing.

Unlike traditional fillers that add volume, SkinVive simply restores hydration and smoothness, giving your skin a supple, luminous quality.

How is SkinVive different from fillers or Botox?

  • SkinVive: boosts hydration, glow, and smoothness
  • Fillers: add structure and contour
  • Botox: relaxes muscles to smooth dynamic wrinkles

Each treatment addresses different aspects of facial rejuvenation, and they can be safely combined for a comprehensive approach.

What areas can be treated with SkinVive?

SkinVive is FDA-approved for the cheeks and is commonly used on the entire face or face and neck to improve texture, hydration, and radiance.

What should I expect during my appointment?

  • Your provider will begin with a consultation and skin assessment
  • Topical numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort
  • The skin is gently cleansed
  • Microdroplet injections of SkinVive are administered into the dermis
  • A light massage may follow to evenly distribute the product

The appointment takes about 45 minutes from start to finish, including numbing time.

Is the treatment painful?

Discomfort is minimal. SkinVive contains lidocaine, and we also offer topical numbing to make the procedure comfortable. Most clients feel only a light pressure or mild pinching that resolves quickly.

How long is the downtime?

Downtime is very short. Mild redness, swelling, or tiny bumps may appear at the injection sites but typically resolve within 24–48 hours. You can return to your normal routine immediately and apply makeup the next day if desired.

How long do results last?

Results are noticeable within 1–2 weeks and typically last up to six months, depending on your skin type and lifestyle. Many clients choose to repeat SkinVive every six months to maintain a consistent glow.

Who is a good candidate for SkinVive?

You may benefit from SkinVive if you:

  • Want a fresh, hydrated, dewy look
  • Notice dullness, dryness, or crepiness
  • Prefer a subtle, natural enhancement
  • Have mild texture or fine lines on the face or neck
  • Want rejuvenation without altering facial shape

SkinVive is safe for all skin tones and types.

Can I combine SkinVive with other treatments?

Yes! SkinVive pairs beautifully with Morpheus8, LaseMD Ultra, Microneedling, eCO2, chemical peels, and Botox for comprehensive rejuvenation.
