Skin Boosters

Skin Boosters increase the levels of hydration in the skin and stimulate the production of collagen,  improving fine lines and wrinkles, producing firmer and younger looking skin.

Another key benefit of skin boosters is that they are particularly good at improving hydration and can be used to treat many different skin areas and skin types. Most common areas are the face followed by the neck, chest and the hands. In contrast to fillers, Skin Boosters help improve collagen and elastin

Skin booster injections are a soft, gel-like substance called Hyaluronic Acid (HA). This is a substance that occurs naturally in the skin and holds incredible amounts of moisture. However, HA depletes with many factors including age, sun damage, genetics, smoking and environmental factors which is what causes skin to become dry and dehydrated.

Microinjections of hyaluronic acid restores the moisture in the skin, which improves its elasticity, firmness and radiance.

Skin Boosters are injected using microdroplet or mesotherapy technique of tiny injections. This process of delivering skin boosters also triggers the skin’s own repair resulting in collagen production and improved skin elasticity.

Depending on the type of skin booster and ingredients some of the potential benefits include:

1. Improved and more radiant complexion
2. Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles
3. Healthier skin tone
4. Better hydration –  ‘glowing’ skin
5. Firmer skin texture and tone
6. Improved skin elasticity
7. Reduced dry patches
8. Improved overall appearance in skin tone

The main difference between skin boosters and dermal fillers is lift and longevity. Skin boosters add hydration, glow and restore elastin while dermal fillers add volume and soften lines to restore a more youthful appearance.

Both treatments use key ingredient of hyaluronic acid and are injected under the skin using a needle. Dermal fillers can last anywhere from 9 to 12 months while Skin boosters will last up to 6 months and will need more regular maintenance
