Skin boosters are injectable treatments, usually containing hyaluronic acid (HA) and other nutrients, designed to deeply hydrate, firm, and improve the overall quality, texture, and radiance of your skin from within, rather than adding volume like traditional fillers. They work by delivering moisture-attracting substances into the skin's deeper layers, stimulating collagen and elastin for a plumper, smoother, glowing complexion, ideal for dryness, fine lines, and crepey skin on the face, neck, and hands.
Key Ingredients
- Hyaluronic Acid (HA): The main ingredient, a natural substance that holds vast amounts of water to deeply hydrate and plump the skin.
- Vitamins, Amino Acids & Peptides: Often included to nourish the skin and support its natural functions.
- Polynucleotides (PNs): Some formulations use these to promote skin repair, regeneration, and collagen production.
What They Do
- Deep Hydration: Infuse moisture into the skin's deeper layers, acting as an internal moisturizer.
- Improve Texture & Firmness: Enhance elasticity, firmness, and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles.
- Promote Radiance: Give skin a natural, healthy glow by improving overall quality.
- Boost Collagen: Stimulate the skin's natural production of collagen and elastin.
How They Differ From Fillers
- Focus: Skin boosters improve skin quality and hydration; fillers add volume and contour.
- Consistency: Boosters are thinner and spread easily; fillers are thicker gels.
- Application: Boosters are injected more superficially and spread; fillers are placed to add structure.
Common Treatment Areas
- Face, neck, décolletage (chest), hands, arms, knees.
