Skin boosters: hydration and glow from within
Skin boosters are injectable treatments that improve the quality of the skin itself rather than adding volume. Here is what they do and how to choose.
What a skin booster is
A skin booster is a fine injection, usually of hyaluronic acid sometimes combined with vitamins, amino acids or other actives, spread across the skin in small points. The aim is better hydration, elasticity and glow, and softer fine lines.
Profhilo is one well-known brand. Several products work on the same idea with different formulas.
Booster or filler?
Filler adds structure and volume in a chosen place, such as the cheeks or lips. A booster spreads through the skin to improve its quality, so the face does not change shape, it simply looks fresher.
Options at the clinic
Dr. Douaihy chooses from skin-quality treatments such as NCTF 135 HA and Trematrix, and micro-infusion with Aquagold MD Prime, depending on your skin and goal. Ask at the consultation which suits you.
Sessions and recovery
A first course is usually two to three sessions a few weeks apart, then maintenance. Small bumps at the injection points usually settle within a day or two, and a small bruise is possible.
Quick answers
What do skin boosters do?
They improve hydration, elasticity and glow and soften fine lines, without changing the shape of the face.
Is a skin booster the same as filler?
No. Filler adds volume in a chosen spot; a booster improves skin quality across an area.
Do you offer Profhilo?
Ask at the consultation. The clinic offers skin-quality treatments such as NCTF 135 HA and Trematrix, and the doctor chooses the product that suits your skin.
How long do skin boosters last?
After an initial course, results usually last several months, with maintenance sessions to keep them.
