Skin Boosters

What are skin boosters?

Skin boosters are an injectable treatment which give a boost to your skin. The treatment acts as an intense moisturiser to your skin which improves the quality, texture, tone and general appearance.

Skin boosters are perfect for those who are looking to:

Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Rejuvenate tired or dull looking skin
Treat areas of sun damage

Reduce dark circles

Skin boosters can be used on the face, hands and decolletage. They contain different ingredients – made up of different vitamins, antioxidants, minerals and amino acids – based on what you are trying to achieve. The one ingredient that skin boosters all contain is hyaluronic acid – the natural ingredient that is found within our own skin.

Unlike dermal fillers which work to add volume, skin boosters are made from a lightweight hyaluronic acid gel which are injected into the skin through a series of fine needle injections. This hydrates and moisturises the skin whilst stimulating the production of collagen.

Frequently Asked Questions about skin boosters

What should I not do after having skin boosters?
You should avoid excessive heat such as a sauna or steam room. Avoid other facial treatments for at least one week. It’s best to avoid alcohol and caffeine for 24 hours after treatment.
Can anyone have skin boosters?
Most people over the age of 18 can have skin boosters. We won’t treat you if you are pregnant or breast feeding.
Is it possible to have an allergic reaction with skin boosters?
As the hyaluronic acid is not from animals, there is no risk of an allergic reaction. All other ingredients are natural and not manmade. The only possible side effects from skin boosters are from a reaction to the needle entering the skin.
