SKIN BOOSTER
Achieve an airbrush effect with micro-insertions for brighter, more hydrated skin.
Superficial volume replacement for skin hydration and glow
Skin Booster hydrates and smooths the skin from the inside out to reverse the ageing process and result in plumper, brighter and younger looking skin.

Skin Booster is ideal to:
-
Hydrate large treatment areas on the face, neck, and hands
-
Stimulate fibroblasts
-
Enhance production of collagen and elastin
-
Achieve healthier, brighter, and plumper skin
-
Enhance results of other treatments such as volume replacement, RF skin needling, laser, and more

What are Skin Boosters?
Skin Boosters are micro-insertions of volume replacement. Unlike traditional volume replacement, they aren't inserted under the skin, so they don't add volume or change face shape. Instead, Skin Booster inserted into the skin superficially to restore and improve its quality.
Following pre- and post-treatment care guidelines will help optimise your results. Our dermal clinicians will walk you through any contraindications or side-effects that might affect you.
It is important that your skin is clear of rashes, infections or cold sores prior to your treatment. If you are prone to cold sore outbreaks, it is advisable that you mention this to the clinician at the time of your initial consult and commence a course of anti-viral medication a week prior to your appointment and for a week afterwards.
If you are taking any medications or supplements that promote bruising (and are not medically necessary), stop them at least two weeks prior to your appointment. Do not stop any medications without consulting your GP first.
What you do after your treatment and how you take care of your skin is very important.
- Don't touch the injected sites.
- Avoid strenuous activity, saunas and humid environments for 24 hours.
- Avoid rubbing and massaging the treated area for four hours.
- Do not get facials, chemical peels and microdermabrasion for 24 hours.
- Use topical arnica and yellow or green concealers to treat and cover up bruises.

Frequently asked questions
What are the side effects of the treatment?
It is not uncommon to have bruising at treatment sites for up to a week following. This can be alleviated using ice packs and topical arnica in the post-treatment period. We advise all our patients to undergo 20 minutes of red-light treatment (available at our centre) immediately afterwards, which helps decrease the bruising and promotes collagen remodelling.
A temporary sensational swelling can last anywhere between 12 hours to three days post treatment. Most people return to work and their normal routine the next morning after treatment. It is our practice to review our patients at two weeks post-treatment for further product placement if desired. A reversal agent can be used to alleviate swelling.
What type is used?
Most filling material is now sourced from naturally occurring substances found in the human body. They are classified as temporary, semi-permanent or permanent.
Our products are from reputable companies based in Australia, FDA approved, used extensively in Europe and the USA. The choice depends on the area to be treated and the characteristics individual to each patient’s face. We advise a step by step, minimalistic, gradual approach to achieve subtle and beautiful results over time.

How does skin booster differ from volume replacement?
While traditional volume replacement is inserted under the skin to add volume and smooth out lines and wrinkles, skin boosters are inserted only superficially into the skin to promote collagen production and hydration, focusing on achieving brighter and healthier skin rather than reshaping the face.
