Injectable skin boosters

Skin Boosters - a cosmetic injectable treatment designed to deliver deep-skin hydration and glow.

Injectable skin boosters are lightweight gels made of hyaluronic acid, a substance that is naturally produced by the skin and which has the ability to hold many times its own weight in water. Injecting this gel just below the surface of the skin gives long-lasting hydration and other benefits.

Skin boosters are different from fillers. With filler treatments you get an immediate effect, but when using skin boosters you will not see the final changes until the skin cycle is completed, which usually takes between 2-3 months or longer. Part of the effect of skin boosters treatment is, that the improvement of the skin results in a reduction of the wrinkle-producing effect that our facial expressions and external influences have on our skin.

With skin boosters the wrinkles will not completely disappear, because the skin naturally folds when we make our facial expressions. It must – and it is what creates our natural look. However, the treatment reduces wrinkles significantly and the skin will become smoother, so that the wrinkles are less visible than before.

As with all procedures involving needles, there will be some redness around the injection sites. This is more noticeable the more injections you have in one sitting. There is also a less likely risk of bruising, although again the likelihood increases the more injections you have. With procedures involving fewer injections, you’ll likely experience some swelling around the injection sites, like a bite or sting.

Other than that, there are no associated side effects.

Skin booster last around six months after two treatments one month apart.  Recommend having a top up treatment after 6-12 months to maintain results.

Luminera Hydryal consists of a highly purified hyaluronic acid from a non-animal origin. The gel is homogenous, transparent, bio-degradable and latex-free. Its unique hyaluronic acid structure is analogous to the body’s own natural hyaluronic acid. Hydryal contains mannitol (9 mg/ml), which prevents oxidative damages and prolongs the duration of the effect. Hydryal is the only skinbooster to offer three varying concentrations to fit each patient’s specific needs. Reaching up to 4% of hyaluronic acid, Hydryal is the highest concentration skin booster on the market.

Intended for:

  • Skin hydration and revitalization
  • Filling of moderate lines and wrinkles
  • Enhancing skin elasticity
  • Softening of facial creases
  • Enhancing radiance

Profhilo® is another league above. It is an injectable product, so it can deliver HA directly into the skin. However, unlike other injectables, it is the first treatment to contain only 100% pure hyaluronic acid (HA) without the use of chemical cross-linking agents (BDDE). This means, it hydrates the skin from the inside out and achieves unrivalled levels of skin-firming and hydration.
