What Are Skin Boosters?
Skin Boosters are injectable treatments that deliver hyaluronic acid directly into the skin. Hyaluronic acid is a substance your body naturally produces to keep skin hydrated and supple.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Skin Boosters do not add volume or reshape facial features. Instead, they improve overall skin quality by increasing hydration, elasticity, and smoothness.
They are commonly used on the face, neck, décolletage, and hands, especially in areas where the skin feels thin, dry, or less resilient over time.
How Do Skin Boosters Work?
Skin Boosters are injected just beneath the surface of the skin using small, precise injections.
Once placed, the hyaluronic acid attracts and holds moisture. This helps the skin retain hydration and supports collagen function over time.
The result is a gradual, natural improvement in skin texture and radiance rather than an immediate or dramatic change.
Skin Boosters work best as a series of treatments, rather than a one-time session.
Most patients are advised to start with:
- 2 to 3 initial sessions, spaced about 3 to 4 weeks apart
This allows hydration and skin quality improvements to build gradually and naturally.
After the initial series, maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months are commonly recommended, depending on your skin type, age, and goals.

What to expect?
Before Treatment
You will meet with our team to review your skin concerns, medical history, and treatment goals. Your dermatologist will assess your skin and recommend a personalized plan.
During Treatment
The procedure typically takes about 30 minutes. Small injections are placed into targeted areas. Discomfort is usually minimal, and numbing options may be used for comfort.
After Treatment
Mild redness, swelling, or small bumps at injection sites are common and usually resolve within a few days. Most people return to normal activities shortly after treatment.
Results develop gradually over the following weeks as skin hydration and texture improve.
