Skin Boosters

Overview

Injectable skin boosters increase skin texture, elasticity, hydration, and overall look. Skin booster therapy is injecting hylauoronic acid, a soft, gel-like material that enhances the skin's elasticity, firmness, and radiance.

Overall, skin boosters raise moisture levels in the skin and promote collagen formation, which improves fine lines and wrinkles and results in firmer, younger-looking skin. Another important aspect of skin boosters is that they are very effective at boosting moisture and may be used to treat a wide range of skin locations and skin types. The face is the most commonly affected location, followed by the neck, chest, and hands. Skin Boosters, as opposed to fillers, assist to enhance collagen and elastin.

Here are seven key proven skin booster benefits: Hydrates and conditions, plumping dull dry skin, restoring moisture, leaving skin glowing, improving complexion texture, improving the look of dry skin, aiding in the smoothing of fine lines and wrinkles

Not surprisingly, the cost of skin boosters varies depending on where you are in the world and in the UK. Skin boosters cost between £300 and £700. This is determined by the clinic's location, the products utilized, and the level of experience of the practitioner.

 

What are the Skin Boosters?

Galderma labs coined the phrase "skinboosters" to describe its Restylane, a hyaluronic acid reference. It is currently a general word for a group of facial cosmetic medicine procedures that use hyaluronic acid's hydrating characteristics.

 

What is Hyaluronic Acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring chemical found in all living creatures' tissues. Hyaluronic acid is notable for its ability to retain water (hydrophilic effect). It promotes the flexibility and three-dimensional organization of the skin and connective tissue.

Every day, humans produce and degrade around 5 grams of hyaluronic acid for tissue regeneration. The body's generation of hyaluronic acid declines with age, and the skin loses hydration, elasticity, and firmness.

 

What is the Difference Between Hyaluronic Acid & Skin Booster?

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring chemical present in the tissues of all living organisms. Hyaluronic acid has the unique property of retaining water (hydrophilic effect). It contributes to the elasticity and three-dimensional structure of the skin and connective tissue.

Every day, the human body produces and degrades around 5 grams of hyaluronic acid for tissue rejuvenation. With age, the body's generation of hyaluronic acid declines, and the skin loses hydration, elasticity, and firmness.

When it comes to responding to an indication about wrinkles on the face, forehead, neck, or décolleté, a less crosslinked hyaluronic acid provides superior outcomes in filling wrinkles.

The hyaluronic acid in skin booster is moderately cross linked, which means it is made up of tiny particles. Unlike hyaluronic acid, which is used for filling injections, it does not affect volume but instead concentrates on hydrating, attracting, and nourishing deep and lasting skin via the call of water caused by its hydrophilic nature.

 

Which Parts of the Body are Suitable for Treatment With Skin Booster?

The effect of hyaluronic acid therapy can be felt throughout the body. Skin-booster therapy is thus applied to the parts of the body that are most vulnerable to adverse environmental factors such as UV radiation and air pollution. On the face, skin rejuvenation and a preventive therapy can be administered to the cheeks, mouth region, eyes, and forehead.

A Skin-booster treatment for the lips provides a natural and fresh appearance as well as a smooth texture. The flexibility and hydration of the lips are improved by hyaluronic acid.

When hyaluron is injected into the neck, a regeneration of dry and light-damaged skin is noticeable.

On the back of the hand, skin hydration and tone improves. Acne scars are significantly reduced and in some places almost invisible.

 

What are the Indications of Skin Boosters?

A skin booster therapy has numerous reasons and can produce benefits on all skin types, whether they are more or less mature.

On young skin (before the age of 40). the skin has few wrinkles but begins to lose tone and flexibility. Skin boosters assist prevent sagging skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles on this skin type by boosting moisture and tone. They also aid to revitalize the complexion and prevent the formation of wrinkles and fine lines.

On mature skin (after 45 - 50 years): Injections of skin booster prevent skin aging on older skin (after 45 - 50 years) by enhancing skin quality, firmness, and texture. They aid in wrinkle reduction by pulling the skin back (sometimes associating skin boosters with filling injections). Skin boosters, which provide noticeable benefits in the face and lips, can also be used to improve the look of skin in the neck, arms, and thighs.

In general, the skin booster:

• Improve in depth the hydration of the skin
• Make the skin more elastic and firmer
• Smooth the skin
• Improves the texture of the skin ("wrinkling" effect on the décolleté or the cheeks)
• Refine the grain of the skin
• Make the skin more radiant
• Slow skin aging and sagging skin
• Delay the appearance of the first wrinkles
• Mitigate the effects of photoaging
• Fills existing wrinkles
• How do the imperfections of the skin
• Revive collagen production by the body

To assist you in treating the signs of aging of the face and help you determine if a skin boosters treatment meets your needs and expectations, the firm offers a diagnosis of your face. During this diagnosis, an in-depth assessment of the skin of your face will allow you to develop a tailor-made therapeutic protocol.

 

How Do Skin Boosters Soften Lines & Wrinkles

Because a Skinbooster is a very fine Dermal Filler, it is utilized on very fine to medium wrinkles and over regions of thin skin that require minor improvements and support. Skinboosters are NOT thick volume lifting fillers; they cannot fill deep wrinkles or raise sunken cheeks; for those purposes, we have different fillers. Skinboosters, on the other hand, can accomplish almost anything. They may be used to revitalize and moisturise your skin, giving it a natural-looking yet subtle youth and energy.

 

How Do Skin Boosters Stimulate Collagen?

As we become older, wrinkles and lines start to appear on our faces. This is because we begin to degrade the collagen fibers that give our skin its elasticity, vitality, and bounce. In reality, starting in our forties, we cease producing a proportion of collagen, causing our skin to lose elasticity and opportunistic lines and crinkles to emerge on our face, neck, chest, and hands.

Our collagen fibers play an important role in the formation of our skin. Collagen fibers, like a robust network of scaffolding, keep our skin firm and supple, holding everything together. However, we may speed up the deterioration of our natural collagen reserves by sun bathing, smoking, and excessive use of alcohol and other drugs, all of which contribute to the everyday destruction of our natural collagen stores. These lifestyle factors induce early skin aging, resulting in deep wrinkles, lack of suppleness, and a sallow, dehydrated look.

As a result, until these habits change, these customers will receive less benefit and longevity from collagen rejuvenation procedures. Skin boosters have been clinically proved to thicken our current collagen fibers, making them stronger and more elastic. This is known as 'Collagen Stretching,' and it can take up to 4-6 weeks to rebuild and strengthen our collagen matrix. As a consequence, the skin's tone and texture are dramatically enhanced, and the skin thickens where it was previously frail and hyper-aging, restoring its former suppleness and bounce.

 

Which Skin Booster is Used?

Because skin booster is a generic word, there are several products in this class. More than their efficacy, we must analyze how each product responds to various indications. Before administering injections, a "facial diagnostic" consultation utilizing instruments to assess the aging of your skin will allow a tailored therapeutic regimen to be determined.

 

Restylane Skinboosters

Restylane Skinboosters®, introduced by Galderma labs in 2004, is a groundbreaking therapy of cross-linked hyaluronic acid for deep hydration. Some 60 published clinical trials have emphasized its efficacy, as well as the long-term viability of the findings, attained (up to 12 months). It is very useful for treating the face, back of the hands, neckline, and neck.

Restylane Skinboosters® exists in two forms:

• The Skinboosters Vital (20 mg / mL of hyaluronic acid) which is injected into the deep dermis and which can effectively treat the most mature skin.
• The Skinboosters Vital Light (12 mg / mL of hyaluronic acid) which is injected into the middle dermis and is more indicated in the youngest skins.

Treatment usually consists of 2 to 3 sessions a month apart. To sustain the result, it is advisable to carry out maintenance injections every 6 to 12 months.

 

Juvéderm Volite

The newest generation of skinbooster treatments is Allergan labs' Juvéderm Volite, which has been available from 2017. It improves the texture, hydration, and elasticity of the skin, as do other comparable treatments.

Juvéderm Volite, developed from Vycross® technology (used in hyaluronic acid crosslinking), is injected into the deep dermis, forming a moisturizing mesh and enhancing skin texture and suppleness.

Juvéderm Volite is an extremely effective and long-lasting filler. The result is frequently assessable after a single session and lasts at least 9 months, providing for a significant result with one to two treatments each year.

 

Profhilo

Developed by IBSA Laboratories and lanched in France in 2017, Profhilo is another hyaluronic acid of the latest generation. It offers a hybrid solution, high and low molecular weight.

This allows a double action:

• A moisturizing and bio-regenerating effect: The balanced concentration of low molecular weight hyaluronic acid stimulates the endogenous production of hyaluronic acid.
• A lifting effect: Hyaluronic acid with high molecular weight prevents sagging skin while reshaping the face.

It is advised that two Profhilo injection treatments be performed four to five weeks apart for the best results. The outcome is then kept for 6 to 8 months. The Profhilo works well on the skin of the bottom part of the face, neck, arms, and hands.

 

Sunekos

Sunekos is a non-surgical injectable therapy made up of a unique mix of Hyaluronic and amino acids that may be used on the neck, face, and décolletage, as well as the arms, hands, knees, and inner thighs. Sunekos can be used to treat a variety of skin issues, such as aging, dryness, sun damage, acne scarring, wrinkles, fine lines, and tone loss.

Sunekos is an excellent treatment choice for people who do not want fillers or Botox but want to revitalize their complexion while maintaining a natural appearance. Sunekos may be an appropriate treatment choice for you if you:

• are noticing the appearance of wrinkles and/or fine lines
• have skin that lacks elasticity
• have creepy skin
• have sun-damaged or dehydrated skin
• have skin that lacks plumpness and volume
• want to prevent early signs of ageing

 

How Long Do Skin Booster Results Last?

The Skin boosters gel-like filling component has been shown to last between 6 and 9 months. However, as we have shown clinically and in many studies, collagen fiber thickening keeps the skin appearing wonderfully supple and moisturized for much longer. As we all know, how quickly your body naturally breaks down your collagen storage is determined by lifestyle, genetics, and age. Some customers who have had several or frequent Skin booster treatments eventually build up such good, robust collagen storage that they only require a top-up once or twice a year. The better you care for your skin, the better Skin boosters will care for you!

 

What Will I Look Like Immediately After My Treatment?

You will experience certain adverse effects that will only last a few days. We will go through these potential side effects with you in detail and advise you on how to avoid them. The following are the most likely adverse effects (if any) of a dermal filler therapy session:

• Swelling:

When swelling is experienced with this treatment, it usually subsides within 24 to 48 hours. Our experts will advise you on how to prevent swelling once your treatment is complete.

• Bruising:

Bruising is a potential risk when the skin is exposed to any procedure that involves penetration. Most of the time the bruises are very small and can be easily covered with mineral makeup. There are certain medicines that increase the bruising occurrence and you will be notified about these prior to your treatment.

• Tenderness:

It is typical to have slight tenderness at the treatment site following the dermal filler therapy. It can also readily have managed by taking a minor pain reliever such as paracetamol. Other precautions include administering ice to the affected region to decrease bruising or swelling, as well as avoiding saunas, spas, vigorous activity, and some medications. After your treatment is over, you will be given detailed post-treatment care instructions.

 

What Happens Once the Filler Result Has Gone?

Dermal Filler is naturally metabolized or broken down by the body over time. We urge that you have follow-up treatments before the dermal fillers run out. This helps to keep the structure of the repair intact and provides longer-lasting effects. 

If you opt not to have any further treatments, your skin will not suffer any negative consequences, such as overstretching; it will simply revert to its pre-treatment form. In fact, research and our own experience have shown that even if you only have the Dermal Filler treatment once, fresh collagen stimulation can enhance the skin's tone and texture. This frequently results in the treated region seeming softer or more toned than before your treatment.

 

Conclusion

The skin booster treatment is a cutting-edge approach to skin hydration and nutrition. Restylane skin boosters are used to improve the texture, quality, and appearance of the skin. This process is intended to swiftly reduce wrinkles, creases, fine lines, sunspots, and other skin concerns. It will provide patients a new sense of confidence as well as gorgeous skin.

The purpose of this clinic is to give patients with a variety of therapy alternatives. The skin booster treatment is a cutting-edge, high-end therapy that boosts outcomes and increases collagen formation. All treatments are quick, safe, and provide consistent outcomes.

To refresh the skin, moisturizing microinjections (gel-like material) are used. The primary component of this therapy is hyaluronic acid, a biological material inherent in the human body. It helps to hydrate and preserve skin all year, although it can decline as one ages. A patient can keep their hyaluronic acid levels and develop new, healthier skin by using skin boosters.

The body gradually stops producing collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Skin boosters provide a powerful solution for reviving the skin in no more than three sessions (2-4 week intervals). These microinjections are perfect for stimulating fibroblasts throughout the body. After the treatment, the skin will seem more young, vibrant, and tighter.
