Arlington SkinVive
Get Your Skin to Glow
SkinVive at SkinDC is the first and only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid microdroplet injectable in the US to improve skin smoothness of the cheeks.
This injectable treatment increases hydration to improve skin smoothness and provide a lasting glow for up to six months.
What Is SkinVive?
Facial fillers — such as Sculptra, Restylane, and other various filler products — use more cohesive gel formulas, which are used to enhance and sculpt features (such as the lips or cheeks) or fill in deep wrinkles.
Skinvive is a skin booster that differs from fillers and takes a different approach. It has a more water-like texture that allows injectors to treat fine lines, dull skin, volume loss, and mild skin laxity while also improving the overall skin quality.
Depending on your individual goals, SkinVive may be an alternative to chemical peels, laser resurfacing, microneedling, and other medical facial treatments because of its smoothing effects!
In a clinical study, patients treated with SkinVive reported higher satisfaction with how glowing, hydrated, refreshed, and healthy their skin looked!
How SkinVive Works at SkinDC
SkinVive's innovative injectable treatment is the latest advancement in skin revitalization, offering a transformative approach to getting radiant, healthy skin.
Unlike traditional methods, SkinVive works by injecting a unique hyaluronic acid-based formula directly into the skin's dermal layer. This specialized treatment hydrates the skin from within, enhancing its natural plumpness and elasticity.
The hyaluronic acid binds with water, replenishing moisture levels and stimulating the production of collagen and elastin—the essential proteins that keep skin firm and youthful.
As the treatment progresses, the skin becomes noticeably more hydrated, smoother, and glowing with a natural radiance. SkinVive's injectable formula is designed to be gentle, ensuring minimal discomfort during the procedure.
With no significant downtime, you can enjoy rejuvenated skin that feels as good as it looks, quickly returning to your daily routine.

What to Expect During Recovery
After your SkinVive session, you can immediately resume your daily activities, as there is no significant downtime required. Some patients may experience mild redness or slight swelling at the injection sites, but these effects are temporary and usually resolve within a few hours.
One of the key benefits of SkinVive is the dual-phase nature of its results. You’ll notice an immediate boost in skin hydration and smoothness right after the treatment, with your skin looking naturally radiant.
Over the following weeks, as collagen production increases, the full effects will become more apparent, revealing a firmer, more youthful complexion that continues to improve over time.
