Attain Smooth, Youthful Cheeks With SKINVIVE in St. Louis

The cheeks are a common area for signs of aging skin to develop. For example, you may start to notice fine lines, wrinkles, or your skin becoming dry, rough, or crepey. Many people also lose significant amounts of facial volume, which can give the cheeks a hollow appearance. At Renaissance Plastic Surgery, our cutting-edge medical spa offers a treatment called SKINVIVE by Juvéderm, which can restore smoothness and fullness to your cheeks with natural-looking results.

What Is SKINVIVE?

SKINVIVE by Juvéderm is a  unique dermal filler designed to rejuvenate your skin by restoring volume and smoothing out lines. It is part of the Juvéderm family of products, which are renowned for their aesthetic benefits. SKINVIVE is primarily made of hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in your skin that helps to retain moisture and elasticity. With its innovative microdroplet technology, SKINVIVE is the first and only injectable treatment designed to add hydration directly to the facial skin.

SKINVIVE is specially formulated to address the signs of aging skin, especially around the cheeks. It works by replenishing the hyaluronic acid that your skin has lost over time, aiding in the hydration and plumpness of the skin.

What to Expect During Your SKINVIVE Treatment in St. Louis

When you schedule your SKINVIVE treatment session, prepare for a painless, minimally invasive experience. On arrival at our medical spa, one of our skin care aestheticians will first discuss your aesthetic goals. It's vital to have clear communication regarding what you hope to achieve. Your provider will verify that you’re a good candidate for SKINVIVE and work with you to curate a personalized treatment plan.

When you arrive for the procedure, your skin will be cleaned, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to ensure comfort. Photographs may also be taken for before-and-after comparisons. One of our expert nurse injectors will then use a fine needle to strategically inject SKINVIVE into your facial skin. You will feel a slight pinch or pressure, but pain is generally minimal.

Typically, patients can return home or go back to work immediately after the treatment is finished.

Does SKINVIVE Treatment Require Any Recovery Time?

You can typically return to your normal activities immediately after the treatment, making SKINVIVE a convenient option for those with busy schedules. That said, following your provider’s aftercare instructions is essential for ensuring proper healing and optimal results. These instructions typically include the following:

  • Avoiding strenuous exercise for 24 hours
  • Staying out of direct sunlight and applying sunscreen regularly
  • Refraining from consuming alcohol or taking blood-thinning medications immediately after the procedure to minimize bruising

Are You a Good Candidate for SKINVIVE?

SKINVIVE is an excellent treatment option for adults seeking subtle yet noticeable improvements in skin quality and volume. The best candidates for SKINVIVE are typically experiencing fine lines, wrinkles, rough skin texture, or loss of facial volume, particularly around the cheeks.
It’s essential that ideal candidates for SKINVIVE also meet the following criteria:

  • Be in good overall health

  • Not be currently pregnant or nursing
  • Have no active skin diseases, infections, or inflammations in the area to be treated
