Skin Quality, Thoughtfully Refined

Many of our clients come to us wanting the same thing: skin that simply looks healthier. Not fuller, not different, just smoother, better hydrated, and glowing. We added SKINVIVE™ to our injectable offerings because it delivers exactly that kind of quiet, intentional improvement.
At our Wesley Chapel med spa, every injectable treatment is guided by medically licensed providers who believe in refinement over reinvention. Allie Hogge, RN/BSN/LE; Micah McGowan, PA-C; and Brittany Richards, NP bring that natural-results philosophy to each appointment, so SKINVIVE becomes one thoughtful chapter in a long-term plan built around you.

What Is SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM®?

SKINVIVE™ by JUVÉDERM® is a smooth hyaluronic acid (HA) gel placed in tiny microdroplets within the skin to improve cheek smoothness and hydration. The FDA approved SKINVIVE in May 2023 for adults over the age of 21, and it is approved for all skin types, from lightest to darkest.
Each formula also contains a small amount of lidocaine, a local anesthetic that keeps your treatment comfortable.

How SKINVIVE Differs From Dermal Fillers

Unlike traditional dermal fillers that add volume and contour, SKINVIVE works within the skin to improve its overall appearance. Fillers lift and shape; SKINVIVE refines texture and glow. This makes it ideal if you want improved skin quality without noticeable fullness or changes to your facial features.

Benefits of SKINVIVE™

SKINVIVE offers several benefits for clients who want their skin to look its healthiest:

Deep skin hydration: Hyaluronic acid helps attract and retain moisture within the skin.
Smoother-looking skin: SKINVIVE improves cheek skin smoothness and overall skin appearance.
Radiant, healthy glow: Enhanced luminosity creates a refreshed, dewy finish.
Natural-looking results: The treatment improves skin quality without adding significant facial volume.
Long-lasting improvement: Results may last up to six months, depending on the individual.

Is SKINVIVE Right for You?

SKINVIVE is ideal for adults over 21 who want to improve cheek skin smoothness and hydration while maintaining their natural facial contours. You may be a great fit if you love your features but feel your skin has lost some of its smoothness or luminosity.
During your consultation at Novella Form & Facial, our experienced providers will evaluate your skin and help determine whether SKINVIVE is the right addition to your personalized aesthetic treatment plan. Your provider will also review your health history, since SKINVIVE is not recommended for anyone with a lidocaine allergy or prior reactions to hyaluronic acid fillers.

What to Expect With SKINVIVE Treatment

Your SKINVIVE Consultation and Cost

Your journey begins with a one-on-one consultation, where we listen to your goals and assess your skin. The cost of SKINVIVE depends on your individual treatment plan.

The Treatment Experience

During treatment, your provider places a series of tiny microdroplet injections across your cheeks. The built-in lidocaine helps keep you comfortable throughout. SKINVIVE is minimally invasive, and most clients return to their day with little to no downtime.
For the first 24 hours, we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise, extensive sun or heat, and alcohol.

Results and Longevity

SKINVIVE results may last up to six months, depending on the individual. In Allergan’s pivotal clinical study, 72% of patients were satisfied with how hydrated their skin looked at six months, compared with 24% before treatment. Some clients benefit from an optional touch-up one month after their first session.

Pairing SKINVIVE With Other Treatments

SKINVIVE pairs beautifully with other Novella treatments as part of a complete skin-quality plan. BOTOX softens expression lines, while dermal fillers restore volume and contour where it’s needed.
To maintain your glow between appointments, consider customized facials or SkinPen microneedling. If you’re planning a laser treatment or chemical peel, let your provider know so we can time each service thoughtfully.
