SKIN REJUVENATION WITH SKIN BOOSTERS

As we age, the dermis becomes dehydrated and less elastic and displays signs of premature ageing, such as fine lines and crepey skin. Our Hyaluronic Acid skin booster treatment aims to rejuvenate your skin and improve its texture, tone and hydration. It absorbs water to bring deep hydration, conferring elasticity, glow and firmness.

SKIN REJUVENATION WITH SKIN BOOSTERS

The treatment involves microinjections of soft, gel-like hyaluronic acid. HA is found throughout the body and in the dermis it attracts and binds water to keep the skin plump and hydrated. As we age, our natural levels of hyaluronic acid, along with collagen and elastin, start to deplete, which is the cause of intrinsic facial ageing changes.

What areas can be treated with skin boosters?

They can be safely used on the face, neck, décolletage and hands. They are particularly effective at treating skin texture around the mouth, chin, and lower cheek.

What are the benefits of hyaluronic acid skin boosters?

Skin booster injections can improve firmness, elasticity, and radiance to produce an all-over natural rejuvenation. They also stimulate fibroblasts in the dermis to produce more collagen and elastin, so the results are long-lasting.

Skin Booster Frequently Asked Questions

Is the treatment painful?

Small amounts of the hyaluronic acid gel are injected using ultra-fine needles, and they are typically very well tolerated. Local anaesthetic cream can be applied in advance to numb the treatment area.

How long will the results last?

This is a temporary treatment as the body safely breaks down the biodegradable HA gel. We recommend a course of three treatments performed four to six weeks apart. Maintenance treatments can be performed every six months.

What is the downtime like after a skin booster treatment?

Downtime is minimal, and you should be able to return to normal daily activities immediately after. You will likely experience slight redness, swelling, and tenderness at the injection sites, which will resolve within one or two days.

What is the difference between skin boosters and dermal fillers?

Both products are composed of hyaluronic acid, but dermal fillers are much thicker and injected at a deeper level of the dermis to revolumise, contour, and lift. Skin boosters are injected at a much more superficial layer to hydrate the skin.

Why choose a dentist for your facial aesthetic treatment?

Facial aesthetic treatments have become incredibly popular in recent years, but lack of regulation in the industry means that they are often offered by individuals who do not have the necessary training and experience to ensure a safe and satisfactory outcome.

We would always advise you seek a suitably qualified medical professional to carry out your facial aesthetic treatment as it is essential that not only can your practitioner deliver the aesthetic outcome you want to achieve, but also to avoid and manage any unwanted complications.

Dental professionals have a unique position in the facial aesthetics industry, and there are several reasons why they are best qualified to carry out these procedures.

Dentists possess a deep understanding of facial anatomy and the tissues of the face, including the muscles, bones, and nerves.

A dentist will have trained for a minimum of five years, gaining artistry, clinical dexterity, and core anatomical knowledge.

A dentist will likely have performed thousands of pain-free injections throughout their career.

You can be assured of a high level of patient care in a safe, clinical environment.

You can also expect a high level of discretion as nobody will question your reasons for visiting your dentist.
