SKIN BOOSTERS
👍🏼 Your practioner will recommend the best treatment for your specific issue 👍🏼
The concept of “skin boosters” has evolved, marking a shift from traditional uses of hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers primarily for skin volume to a more diverse application aimed at improving skin conditions.
Skin boosters, encompassing a range of ingredients, are effective in improving the condition of the skin's dermis. Botulinum neurotoxin, exosome, growth factor, hyaluronic acid filler, poly‐L‐lactic acid, polynucleotides, amino acids and vitamins are all ingredients found in skin booster product and are designed to improve the skin.
In conclusion, the term “skin booster” has not previously had a defined scope, but it broadly encompasses all substances that, when injected or applied to penetrate the dermis, influence skin rejuvenation.
What are the different types of skin boosters?
Hyaluronic Acid (crossed-linked)
Alongside replenishing hydration, these products stimulate collagen production and provide a
tightening effect on the treated skin. Administered over 2-3 sessions with a 4-week interval between each, these skin boosters are injected at five specific points on each side of the face. The effects can last for 9 months. For patients seeking to enhance skin firmness, tightness, and hydration, or aged 40+ these treatments of perfect for anyone with crepey, dry, textured slightly loose skin.

SUMMARY
Hyaluronic Acid (non-crossed linked)
These skin booster injections are injected directly beneath the skin, attracting moisture, giving it a nice glow. The treatment lasts for three to four months and 3 sessions are usually recommended for a 6-9month longevity. These products suit patients 30+ and would like a temporary skin blurring / filter-like effect.
Polynucleotides
Polynucleotides are injectable elastic and absorbable gel-like products, used to reduce wrinkles,
diminish crepiness, scars, and brown spots, tighten pores, and reduce stretch marks on the body. The hydration and anti-free radical properties of polynucleotides help to create the optimal environment for fibroblast growth, responsible for generating collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, essential for resilient skin. Polynucleotides actively signal cells to produce collagen and elastin. They address areas where many skin boosters cannot, such as the eyes, lips, and forehead.
Hybrids
When combined, polynucleotides and HA skin boosters create a remarkable synergy that not only nourishes the skin but also supports its rejuvenation. Polynucleotides enhance the effect of skin boosters by providing a long-lasting, in-depth improvement to the skin’s DNA, cellular health, and
durability. This dynamic duo captures the essence of complementing natural processes with advanced skincare technology. By strengthening the skin’s infrastructure at a molecular level, visible signs of ageing can be significantly diminished over time with the benefits of immediate hydration from the HA. The combination’s focus on boosting and maintaining collagen levels directly impacts the skin’s ability to combat wrinkles. With consistent use, many clients report a visible reduction in lines and a plumper, more hydrated appearance.
Microneedling or Mesotherapy Cocktails
Many products are available to introduce via several methods other than direct injection in to the dermis. Topical products can be microneedled into the skin or a delivered via a tiny mesotherapy needle. These products are more liquid than gel based and can penetrate the skins barrier easier. Products include, exosomes, epidermal growth factors, peptides, vitamins, botox etc. All these ingredients can benefit the skin in some way and chosen depending on which issue is being targeted. Mesotherapy cocktails can also be made so that multiple issues can be targeted at the same time.
Skin Botox
Skin Botox is used at a different concentration to regular botox and is micro-injected or microneedled into the superficial layers of the skin. It’s not targeting the muscle but rather the skin itself. Skin Botox targets pores to create an all-over smoothing effect. This can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as create a more even skin tone. This treatment not only works on small lines, but can also help to prevent lines from forming in the first place. It’s perfect for people with oily skin, as it can help to decrease excess oil production. Another benefit of Skin Botox is that it not only can help improve your appearance, but also banish breakouts. Since sweat and oil glands are impacted by the procedure, Skin Botox has become a favourite.
