What is a skin booster?

Skin Booster is an injectable skin rejuvenation technique that contains mainly hyaluronic acid and is injected under the skin, in the dermis. Cells through hyaluronic acid absorb more moisture, the skin is hydrated from within and collagen production is increased. Thus, boosters improve the quality of the skin by enhancing the levels of hydration deep in the skin and increasing its softness, elasticity and firmness.

The areas where the skin booster is applied are:

 

  • the face
  • the neck
  • the neckline
  • the hands
    • Who is it for?

    The treatment is applied to all women and men regardless of age and skin type. If the face looks tired and dehydrated or has low elastin levels along with the appearance of wrinkles or other signs that betray the skin’s need for rejuvenation, then it is the right time to proceed with booster treatment.

     

    • Is the treatment painful?

    The only pain the treatment involves is a slight sting or discomfort when applying the booster to the wanted area. It is preceded by local anesthesia with cream.

     

    • What complications may occur?

    The side effects that Skin Booster can cause are temporary. Sometimes due to the injection with the use of a needle, irritation, bruises or hematoma may appear that will go away on their own in 3-7 days.

     

    • How long does the procedure take and what kind of anesthesia is applied?

    The procedure takes about 20-30 minutes depending on the area in which it is applied and performed after the use of anesthetic cream or local anesthesia.

     

    • How is the skin booster applied?

    The treatment after cleaning and designing the injection points includes a series of microinjections containing hyaluronic acid gel. It will release its moisturizing properties by activating collagen production and replacing vital nutrients, which are lost due to aging or the intense pace of life, throughout the treated area.

     

    • In how many days can one return to their daily activities?

    No recovery time is required. The candidate can return to their workplace and continue their daily activities without any hesitation by following some medical instructions such as consuming plenty of fluids.

     

    • When is it recommended to repeat the skin booster?

    In the beginning it is necessary to hold 3 sessions every three weeks and then it is advisable to repeat the session every 4-6 months to maintain the results.
