Skin Boosters
What's all the buzz with Skin BOosters?
What are skin boosters?
Skin boosters typically contain hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the skin that attracts and retains moisture. By infusing hyaluronic acid into the skin, boosters deeply hydrate, plump, and improve skin texture, resulting in a more youthful and radiant appearance.
All the benefits and no down time!
Skin boosters are often preferred over dermal fillers for certain individuals and purposes because they focus on improving overall skin quality rather than adding volume or contouring. Here’s a breakdown of why some people opt for skin boosters over dermal fillers:
Skin Boosters are customizable to fit your needs
They can be customized to address specific skin concerns and target different areas of the face. Whether you’re looking to enhance hydration, reduce fine lines, improve skin texture, brighten skin tone or achieve an overall rejuvenated look, a skilled practitioner can tailor the treatment to meet your unique needs.
Gradual results with long lasting effects
While some treatments offer immediate results, skin boosters work gradually, with improvements becoming more noticeable over time. This gradual approach often results in natural-looking enhancements, avoiding the “overfilled” appearance that can occur with more aggressive treatments. Although individual results may vary, the effects of skin boosters can last for several months. Regular maintenance sessions can help prolong the benefits, keeping the skin looking refreshed and rejuvenated over the long term.
Keep your skin engaged guessing!
Boosters can be used alone or in combination with other treatments as part of a comprehensive skincare regimen. Whether used as a standalone treatment or as part of a larger treatment plan, skin boosters offer versatility in addressing a wide range of skin concerns. Overall, skin boosters provide a gentle yet effective approach to skin rejuvenation, offering hydration, collagen stimulation, customizable treatment options, minimal downtime, gradual results, long-lasting effects, and versatility in addressing various skin concerns.
How are skin boosters different from dermal fillers?
Purpose
Improve skin hydration, texture, and elasticity. They give the skin a radiant, plump appearance by boosting moisture levels from within.
Dermal Fillers: Add volume, contour, and shape to the face. They’re commonly used to fill wrinkles, enhance lips, and restore lost facial volume.
Composition
Contain a very light, smooth form of hyaluronic acid (HA) that spreads evenly under the skin.
Dermal Fillers: Contain a thicker, more cross-linked HA (or other substances) designed to stay in place and provide structural support.
Injection Depth & Technique
Injected superficially into the dermis in small droplets, often across larger areas like the cheeks, neck, or hands.
Dermal Fillers: Injected deeper into the skin or subcutaneous tissue to lift and shape specific areas.
Results
Provide subtle, natural-looking glow and skin improvement over time.
Dermal Fillers: Provide immediate and more noticeable changes in facial structure or contour.
Longevity
Skin Boosters: Typically last 4–6 months, depending on the product and individual skin condition.
Dermal Fillers: Can last 6–18 months, depending on the type and location of the filler
How are skin boosters different from dermal fillers?
Boosters are often preferred over dermal fillers for certain individuals and purposes because they focus on improving overall skin quality rather than adding volume or contouring. Here’s a breakdown of why some people opt for skin boosters over dermal fillers:
1. Natural Results
boosters hydrate the skin and improve texture, elasticity, and radiance, giving a refreshed and subtle glow.
Unlike fillers, they don’t alter facial structure or volume significantly, which appeals to people who want a more natural, “untouched” look.
2. Focus on Skin Health
Boosters typically contain hyaluronic acid and sometimes additional nutrients, which enhance hydration from within.
They work to stimulate collagen production, improving the skin’s overall condition over time.
3. Less Risk of Overfilling
Dermal fillers can sometimes create an unnatural appearance if overused, especially in areas like the lips or cheeks.
Boosters are lighter and more evenly spread, reducing the risk of puffiness or lumps.
4. Ideal for Early Signs of Aging
Boosters are often chosen by those in their 30s and 40s looking to address fine lines, dullness, or dryness, without needing volume restoration.
They offer a preventive anti-aging effect by nourishing the skin early.
5. Better for Certain Areas
Boosters work well in areas where fillers might not be ideal, such as:
Under the eyes (for crepey texture)
Neck and décolletage
Hands
6. More Subtle and Buildable
Results from skin boosters are gradual and can be built up over multiple sessions.
This makes them a preferred option for those new to aesthetic treatments or hesitant about dramatic changes.
