How often do I need Skinvive?
Skinvive is a single-visit treatment with a predictable rhythm — one session, a building glow, and a top-up when it fades.
Microdroplets are placed evenly across the cheeks in a single short visit — no series required to see results.
Many clients notice an immediate refresh, but the real result develops over two to four weeks as hydration builds within the skin.
A single treatment keeps skin hydrated and luminous for up to six months; most clients simply rebook when they notice the glow fading.

The finishing touch
There’s little to no downtime — you leave with simple aftercare and a refreshed look that keeps improving for weeks.
The first of its kind — microdroplet HA
Skinvive™ is the first and only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid microdroplet injectable. The same molecule used in premium fillers is reformulated to integrate into the skin rather than shape it — binding water where your complexion actually needs it. It’s skincare delivered where creams can’t reach.
Skinvive vs traditional filler
| Skinvive™ | Traditional HA filler | |
|---|---|---|
| Goal | Hydration, texture, glow | Volume, shape, definition |
| How it’s placed | Microdroplets just beneath the surface | Deeper placement to build structure |
| Changes your features? | No — skin quality only | Yes — that’s the point |
| Results last | Up to 6 months | Typically 9–18 months |
| Best for | Dull, dehydrated, uneven skin | Lips, cheeks, jawline, folds |
They share an ingredient, not a job — one improves skin quality, the other adds shape. See our dermal fillers page for the volumizing side.

Skinvive questions, answered
What is Skinvive by Juvéderm?
Skinvive™ is the first and only FDA-approved hyaluronic acid microdroplet injectable. Rather than adding volume like a filler, it places tiny droplets of HA just beneath the skin’s surface in the cheeks to boost hydration, smooth texture and create a lasting, natural glow — without changing your features.
Is Skinvive a filler?
No — and that’s its selling point. It uses hyaluronic acid, the same molecule as many fillers, but in a microdroplet formulation designed to integrate into the skin and bind moisture rather than build shape. Your cheeks won’t look bigger; they’ll look healthier.
How long does Skinvive last?
Up to 6 months from a single treatment. Hydration and glow build over the first 2–4 weeks, hold steady, then gradually fade — most clients simply rebook twice a year to keep the finish consistent.
How much does Skinvive cost in Toronto?
Skinvive in Toronto typically ranges from $699 per syringe at Pureté in Etobicoke, with most clients needing 2 syringes on average— your plan is confirmed at your free consultation.
Is there downtime after Skinvive?
Little to none. You might see pinpoint redness or small bumps at injection sites for a short time, and we recommend skipping strenuous exercise and makeup on the area for 24 hours. Most clients return to their day immediately.
When will I see Skinvive results?
Many clients notice an immediate refreshed look, but the true result develops over 2–4 weeks as hyaluronic acid draws and holds moisture within the skin. That’s when the smoothness and dewy finish fully arrive.
Skinvive vs skin boosters — what’s the difference?
They’re close cousins. Skinvive is the FDA-approved microdroplet HA option with results up to 6 months; other boosters like salmon DNA PDRN add regenerative ingredients. Your nurse will match the booster to your skin at a free consultation.
Can I combine Skinvive with Botox or fillers?
Yes — they solve different problems, so they stack beautifully. Botox softens expression lines, fillers restore shape, and Skinvive finishes the skin itself. Many clients treat all three layers in a coordinated plan.
Who performs Skinvive at Pureté?
All Skinvive treatments at Pureté are performed by advanced nurse injectors under the direction of our Medical Director, following a full health-history review. Injection spacing and depth determine how even the glow looks — experience matters, even for microdroplets.
