Skin boosters are micro-injections of hyaluronic acid, amino acids, vitamins, antioxidants, or bio-stimulating compounds delivered into the superficial layers of the skin. These formulations improve hydration, strengthen the skin barrier, stimulate collagen and elastin production, and help repair early signs of aging. Unlike fillers that add volume or Botox that relaxes muscles, skin boosters work at a cellular level to restore skin health, texture, and radiance across the face, neck, and body. They are suitable for treating dullness, fine lines, dehydration, uneven texture, crepiness, and loss of firmness, without altering facial structure or expression.

Targeted Treatment Areas for Skin Boosters
Skin boosters are commonly used on the face and under-eye area to improve hydration, skin texture, elasticity, and fine lines without adding volume. They are especially effective for dull, tired-looking skin, early signs of aging, and delicate areas where traditional fillers may not be suitable.
Beyond the face, skin boosters can also be applied to the neck, décolletage, hands, and selected body areas such as arms, abdomen, and knees. In these areas, they help address crepiness, dryness, and loss of firmness by strengthening the skin from within and improving overall skin quality.
Who is an Ideal Candidate for Skin Boosters?
Dermal Fillers are ideal for those:
- Dealing with dehydrated, dull, or tired-looking skin
- Experiencing early signs of aging or fine lines
- Struggling with loss of skin elasticity or firmness
- Seeking natural skin improvement without volume

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Skin Boosters
Your questions about skin boosters, answered
How are Skin Boosters different from traditional Dermal Fillers?
Dermal Fillers add volume and contour features, while Skin Boosters focus solely on improving the quality of the skin itself. Boosters are injectable moisturizers that stimulate collagen and elastin (bio-remodeling) to enhance texture, hydration, and elasticity across wide areas without altering your facial shape or volume.
Which areas of the body can be treated with Skin Boosters?
While commonly used on the face, Skin Boosters are excellent for rejuvenating the neck (to treat fine lines and crepiness), the décolletage (chest), and the hands. We also utilize specialized products, such as Profhilo Body, for comprehensive skin laxity and hydration across larger body areas.
How long do the results from Skin Booster injections typically last?
Following the initial required course (typically two sessions a month apart), the results are long-lasting, usually maintained for six to twelve months. The ongoing stimulation of collagen and elastin helps sustain the firmness and hydration. A single maintenance session is recommended every 6-12 months to preserve your luminous outcome.
Do Skin Boosters help reduce the appearance of dark circles or under-eye hollowness?
Yes. Specialized Skin Boosters, such as Xela Rederm or specific PDRN treatments, are precisely formulated for the delicate under-eye area. They target thin skin, boost hydration, and improve circulation, which effectively reduces fine lines, crepey texture, and helps brighten dark shadows for a refreshed look.
Can Skin Boosters be combined with other treatments like Botox or Microneedling?
Absolutely. Skin Boosters establish a foundation of healthy, hydrated skin, making them the perfect complement to other services. They work synergistically with Botox for wrinkle softening and Dermal Fillers for structural volume, ensuring the most comprehensive, natural, and radiant anti-aging results.
