Skin boosters are injectables that improve skin texture, elasticity, hydration and overall appearance. Treatment involves injecting hyaluronic acid (HA) which is a soft, gel-like substance under the skin, which improves the skin's elasticity, firmness and radiance giving an overall skin quality.

NEW Profhilo®

Profhilo® made with the patented NAHYCO® technology. This results in a unique hyaluronic acid injectable gel, which has a prolonged stimulating activity on the dermal cells. When injected into skin, Profhilo® stimulates the skin cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and improve and restore firmness of the skin.

One of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market, Profhilo® not only boosts and hydrates the skin, but also remodels ageing and sagging tissue. The most common areas of treatment include the face and neck and can also be used for the décolletage, hands, arms, knees and abdomen area where it would effectively treat skin laxity. The treatment is suitable for men and women as well as offering skin benefits for patients of all ages.

FAQ’s

What is a Skin Booster treatment?

A skin booster consists of a series of superficial injections into the skin. The injections predominantly consist of hyaluronic acid. The beauty trends are also leaning more towards natural, glowing appearance rather than the noticeably treated face. There is very little pain associated with these treatments.

Who is suitable for this treatment?

Skin boosters are suitable for anyone wanting to improve their skin. As long as you are above 18, there are no other age restrictions when it comes to skin boosters. They don't alter or augment your face; they merely add hydration to it. Those who suffer from aged, dehydrated, corse skin may see the most significant results.

How many treatments do you need?

The number for treatments will depend on the brand of skin boosters you choose to have. However, usually we recommend a course of two to three treatments, with treatments spaced four-six weeks apart.

How do they differ from mesotherapy?

Skin boosters are very similar to mesotherapy. The same ingredients that you may find in mesotherapy solutions can also be found in skin boosters. The main difference between them is that skin booster contains more stabilised ingredients, especially the hyaluronic acid meaning the results will last you longer, fewer treatments are needed to see a difference.

How do they differ from fillers?

Some manufacturers make soft tissue fillers and skin boosters. It can be quite easy to confuse the two. Traditional fillers are generally a lot thicker in consistency and not suitable for injections into the skin. We use soft tissue fillers to add volume and augment facial proportions. Skin boosters are injected ever so superficially so that it sits in the middle layer of the skin, known as the dermis, giving you a hydrated look.

Why this treatment remains one of my favourites:

  • this treatment has minimal to no downtime;

  • you can have this treatment in conjunction with your other injectable treatments;

  • you will see the difference in your skin with even one treatment; and

  • they can be used to treat not only the face but the hands, neck and decolletage.
