Skin Boosters

Overview

Skin Boosters

Skin booster treatment is a popular non-invasive procedure designed to enhance the skin's hydration, texture, and overall appearance. This treatment involves the injection of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the skin, which helps to retain moisture and promote collagen production.
Skin boosters are typically injected into the deeper layers of the skin, where they can:

Improve Hydration: Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture, providing intense hydration to the skin.

Enhance Skin Elasticity: By stimulating collagen production, skin boosters help improve the skin's elasticity and firmness.

Smooth Fine Lines and Wrinkles: The increased hydration and collagen production can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Promote Radiance: Skin boosters can give the skin a healthy, glowing appearance by replenishing essential nutrients.

Treatment Process

Consultation: Before the procedure, you'll have a consultation with our healthcare professional to discuss your goals, medical history, and any potential risks.

Preparation: The treatment area is cleaned, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to minimise discomfort.

Injection: Our treating Nurse will use a fine needle or cannula to inject the product into the targeted areas. Multiple injections may be needed to achieve the desired results.

Post-Treatment Care: You will be given specific aftercare instructions, such as avoiding strenuous activities, excessive sun exposure, and certain medications for a short period.

Skin Booster Vs Polynucleotides

Whilst Skin boosters and Polynucleotides can be used in combination if deemed appropriate for the patient and both treatments offer unique benefits and can be tailored to individual skin concerns and goals, here are some differences between the two:

How Does Skin Booster Treatment Differ from Polynucleotides Treatment?
While both skin booster and polynucleotides treatments aim to rejuvenate the skin, they differ in their composition and specific benefits:

Composition
Skin Boosters: Primarily composed of hyaluronic acid, which is known for its excellent moisture-retaining properties.

Polynucleotides: Made from natural DNA fragments that act as biostimulators to promote cellular regeneration

Duration of Results
Skin Boosters: Results can last around 6 to 9 months.

Polynucleotides: Effects can last several months, with multiple sessions recommended for optimal results

Targeted Benefits
Skin Boosters: Best for improving hydration, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, and enhancing skin radiance.

Polynucleotides: Effective for boosting skin hydration, improving elasticity, enhancing skin tone and texture, and supporting tissue regeneration
