What are Skin Boosters?
Skin boosters consist of small intradermal injections, commonly based on non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid or other clinician-selected ingredients aimed at improving skin health. The specific treatment choice follows a comprehensive clinical assessment suited to your unique profile.Note that formulations vary significantly and this is not the same as volumising dermal filler; rather, it focus on deep tissue conditioning.
How they work
Through water binding and a local skin-remodelling response, these treatments encourage the skin to repair and hydrate itself. Please note that results develop gradually over several weeks and there is no guaranteed outcome for any individual patient.
Hydration
Restores moisture levels deep within the dermal layers for a plump appearance.
Texture
Smoother skin texture and improved luminosity with a softening of fine lines.
Natural Finish
Temporary results that focus on quality rather than structural volume changes.

FAQs
How do these differ from dermal fillers?
Fillers add volume and structure; boosters focus purely on skin condition and hydration without changing facial shape.
Is the treatment uncomfortable?
Discomfort is typically minimal, often managed with topical anaesthetic and delicate injection techniques.
How many sessions are recommended?
An initial course of 2-3 sessions is common, though this depends entirely on your clinical assessment.
When will I see results?
Initial hydration effects appear within days, while full quality improvements develop over several weeks.
Can I combine this with other treatments?
Yes, boosters often complement other therapies, though scheduling must be individualised for safety.
