What is a skin booster?
A skin booster is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to improve skin hydration, firmness, and elasticity. A skin booster is a unique injectable composed of either high concentrations of hyaluronic acid or of polynucleotides, which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. The treatment involves injecting the skin booster into specific areas of the skin, where it spreads evenly and deeply hydrates the tissue. This results in smoother, plumper, and more youthful-looking skin. The procedure is minimally invasive, with little downtime, and is typically completed in two sessions spaced about a month apart.
Is a skin booster for me?
A skin booster may be suitable for you if you seek to improve skin hydration, firmness, and elasticity without surgery. Ideal candidates are in good overall health, have aging or sagging skin, and desire a minimally invasive treatment to achieve a smoother, plumper, and more youthful appearance.
During the procedure
During a skin booster, a numbing cream may be applied to the treatment area for comfort. The procedure involves injecting small amounts of skin booster into specific points in the skin, usually on the face, neck, or hands. These injections stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, improving skin hydration and firmness. The treatment typically takes about 30 minutes. There is minimal downtime, and you can return to normal activities immediately after the procedure. For optimal results, two sessions are usually recommended, spaced about a month apart.
