What is a skin booster?
Skin boosters are a broad category of injectable aesthetic treatments that are used to target the visible signs of aging by improving the quality of your skin from within. Micro-injections of hydrating ingredients, often hyaluronic acid (a soft gel-like substance naturally found in the body), deliver moisture straight into the dermis layer of skin.
Skin boosters are commonly used to treat the face, neck, décolletage and hands. They are generally experienced as relatively comfortable and quick treatments with a skilled medical professional, similar to Botox, with ultra fine needles being used. The first results from skin booster treatments are often seen within a couple of days.
Common benefits of skin boosters:
Improves skin quality and overall skin health
Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
Improves skin tone and texture
Increases hydration for a healthy glow
Improves skin laxity and firmness
Skin boosters differ in the ways they are injected, the ingredients used, how many treatments are needed, and whether they focus on bio-remodelling, hydration or firmness.

How do skin booster differ from dermal fillers?
Skin boosters and dermal fillers are both effective anti-aging injectable treatments. They often both involve injecting hyaluronic acid. However, this is used for different concerns and to achieve different results.
The main difference between skin boosters and dermal fillers is that while dermal fillers change the shape of your face to add or restore volume and structure, skin boosters add hydration and improve the quality of your skin without changing the facial shape.
