What is the difference between Skin Boosters and Dermal Fillers?

Skin boosters are injectables that improve skin texture, elasticity, hydration and overall appearance. 

Treatment involves injecting hyaluronic acid (HA) which is a soft, gel-like substance under the skin, which improves the skin’s elasticity, firmness and radiance giving an overall skin quality.  

Skin boosters are often called skin quality as they improve and enhance the overall quality and health of the skin.

How do Skin Boosters work?

The treatment involves a series of small, superficial injections on the top later of the skin. Skin Boosters contain hyaluronic acid (HA) and a blend of revitalizing compounds to restore skin radiance and vibrancy. 

HA occurs naturally in the body and acts as a moisture magnet to enhance cellular hydration, resulting in plump, healthy-looking skin. As we age, our HA levels reduce. 

By injecting it back into the skin, the lightweight hyaluronic acid molecules in the booster pull in moisture and water from the body to moisturize and hydrate the treated skin area.

What are the benefits of skin boosters?

Skin boosters are a fantastic way to improve the overall appearance and quality of your skin. We’ve already mentioned a few benefits, but here’s a full breakdown of what you could experience:

• Radiant, glowing complexion

• Improved skin tone & texture

• Improve skin firmness

• Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles

• Reduce dry, crepey skin

• Tighter/lifted skin

• Fight signs of ageing

• Better hydration

• Improved the appearance of dark circles

• Stimulate collagen & elastin production for healthier skin overall

• Can be used to treat face, hands, neck & chest/decolletage

Not only that but skin boosters are a quick treatment with little to no downtime, anyone can benefit from them and unlike topical skin care products that only work on the surface, skin boosters can treat the skin at its core and deliver the entirety of its powerful ingredients where they are needed the most.

Skin boosters vs Dermal Fillers: what’s the difference?

Skin boosters are injected directly into the skin, and they are used to enhance its volume and give you a rejuvenated appearance.

The main difference between skin boosters and dermal fillers, is that the former are injected into the skin, to offer a boost in hydration and collagen production.

Hyaluronic acid (HA) skin boosters and hyaluronic acid (HA) Dermal Fillers are not the same product despite both injectables containing Hyaluronic Acid (HA) as the main ingredient. The two treatments are also not interchangeable when it comes to offering skin ageing treatments as they behave in different ways. 

The product is also different. Skin boosters are often formulated with lightweight hyaluronic acid, which gives hydration to the skin, as well as amino acid, vitamins and antioxidants.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) skin boosters are not cross-linked and are usually much thinner in consistency and therefore have a greater spread. 

Ultimately, skin boosters can be used to soften fine lines, hydrate, and improve the texture and condition of the skin. 

On the other hand, hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers are generally used when volumisation, contouring, or augmentation is required in specific areas of the face. 

how skin boosters work

Hydration: Skin boosters deeply hydrate the skin by delivering a high concentration of hyaluronic acid. 

This helps to restore the skin’s moisture balance, resulting in improved skin texture, elasticity, and a more radiant complexion. This results in a plumper, more supple complexion.

Collagen Stimulation: The injection of hyaluronic acid triggers a natural response in the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin. 

Collagen is a vital protein that provides structural support to the skin, promoting firmness and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Skin Rejuvenation: By improving hydration levels and collagen synthesis, skin boosters help rejuvenate the skin from within. They can enhance skin tone, smooth out roughness, minimise the appearance of pores, and promote a more youthful and refreshed look.

Overall Skin Radiance: With improved hydration and collagen synthesis, skin boosters can contribute to a brighter, more youthful, and healthier-looking complexion.

Who is suitable for skin booster treatment?
