Skinboosters are micro-injections of hydrating product to help improve skin texture and appearance. Unlike traditional volume replacement products they are not used to add volume or contour. Skinboosters are an treatment that provide hydration from within, below the skin surface, to gradually restore skin elasticity and skin quality. They are clinically proven to offer improvement to skin health by gradually increasing elasticity, improving roughness and reducing the appearance of fine lines and other imperfections such as acne scars, as well as increasing collagen production.

 

As we age the middle layer of skin thins due to collagen loss, moisture retention is lost and elasticity is reduced due to loss of elastin. Skinboosters are perfect for patients who are new to medical cosmetic treatments as well as clients who are looking to improve the quality of their skin without adding volume or contouring the skin.

 

Skinboosters are a versatile treatment option that can be used in a variety of areas but are mostly used in the rejuvenation of the face, hands as well as the neck and décolletage. 

 

Skinboosters treatment are progressive meaning changes in skin condition are subtle and natural looking. While patients are likely to see some benefits immediately the full effects of the treatment may take up to 4 weeks. 

 

Skinboosters are usually given initially over three treatments sessions 3-4 weeks apart. The effect may last for up to 6-15 months. Regular maintenance sessions - approximately 6 months are recommended to ensure lasting results.

How do Skinboosters differ from regular Volume Replacement Treatments:

Skinboosters can be applied all over the skin through a serious of micro injections and uses a very soft scripted product that works via biochemical properties rather than harder products that are used for sculpting and contouring. Skinboosters focus on moisture and overall skin quality rather than filling and lifting specific areas. Skinboosters provide great results for glowing skin. 

 

A topical numbing cream is advised 30-45 mins prior to treatment to help with discomfort. This can be bought over the counter from pharmacies. Alternatively a numbing cream can be applied during your appointment at an additional cost.
