Find out how this procedure works, what its benefits are and what care you need to take to achieve better, longer-lasting effects.
How does Skinbooster work?
Skinbooster is used in aesthetic medicine to treat and rejuvenate the skin. In this procedure, hyaluronic acid is applied, which helps to improve the appearance of the skin.
Over the years, the production of hyaluronic acid decreases and, as a result, wrinkles and expression lines tend to appear.
This treatment restructures the skin, acting on the elastic and collagen fibers of the dermis. As a result, the appearance of the tissues improves and the skin becomes more hydrated, smooth, firm and elastic due to the deep action of hyaluronic acid.
What are the main effects of Skinbooster?
As an innovative skin rejuvenation technique, this treatment can be used by anyone who wants to:
- Redefine the skin of the face and neck;
- Eliminate the so-called “double chin”;
- Achieve a skin rejuvenation effect;
- Improve facial contour.
What is the duration of the treatment and its effects?
Generally, the results and effects of this treatment appear after three sessions, with an interval of 15 days between sessions. The procedure lasts approximately 10 minutes.
The effects of the treatment usually last approximately 8 months, depending on the individual’s age and skin type.
What are the advantages of Skinbooster?
There are many advantages to be gained from this type of treatment. Among its benefits are:
- Moisturize the skin deeply, as hyaluronic acid is capable of retaining fluid in the skin, moisturizing it intensely and showing excellent results in topical treatments;
- Being a collagen biostimulator, i.e. this substance will also boost collagen production in the skin naturally. This makes the skin firmer and more elastic;
- Treating acne scars, as hyaluronic acid fills the spaces between cells. It therefore helps to treat acne scars, eliminating or disguising them;
- Revitalize certain areas of the body, since the filling power of hyaluronic acid makes it possible to disguise the signs of ageing that are characteristic of the passage of time, and which are most evident in areas such as the neck and hands;
- Improves the treatment of dark circles, because Skinbooster can be applied to fill in depressions, such as those that cause dark circles or even cellulite;
Where can Skinbooster be applied?
Skinbooster is able to moisturize areas of the skin with fine, brittle lines due to dryness. The most common areas for this procedure are:
- lips;
- around the eyes;
- cheeks;
- neck;
- back of hands;
- acne scars;
- arms;
- among others.
In which cases can hyaluronic acid be used?
Aesthetic medicine uses hyaluronic acid to treat furrows, increase volume, fill in certain areas and improve the contour of the face, jaw and lips.
Facial rejuvenation treatments can also combine the use of hyaluronic acid with other substances, such as botulinum toxin.
Frequently Asked Questions
Hyaluronic acid is a type of carbohydrate (glycosaminoglycan) produced by our body and which forms part of the joints.
Its function is to retain the fluid around it. However, as we age, the production of hyaluronic acid decreases significantly.
In Skinbooster, hyaluronic acid is applied in low concentration to the deepest layers of the dermis. “Skin” means skin and “booster” intensifier. Therefore, this is an aesthetic procedure that intensifies the production of collagen and elastin in the tissues.
The application is made with small injections of hyaluronic acid in the middle layer of the dermis. In this way, the hyaluronic acid keeps the water molecules around and conserves the liquid for a long time, increasing thickness, shine and smoothness.
Yes. One of the first aspects to consider is that this treatment is contraindicated for:
- pregnant women;
- nursing mothers;
- individuals with allergies to hyaluronic acid;
- individuals with autoimmune diseases such as lupus;
- individuals with lesions or infections in the area to be treated.
- Although the application of hyaluronic acid carries few risks, after the treatment there may be slight redness and swelling in the area to be treated. This erythema usually disappears around 2 or 3 days after the treatment.
For a faster recovery, cold compresses are suggested to relieve discomfort and reduce the symptoms.
As Skinbooster is a globally safe, effective and non-invasive treatment, it can be combined with other aesthetic procedures that can even enhance its effects and help with rejuvenation in the medium and long term.
Among these treatments that can be combined with it are: microneedling, botulinum toxin, peeling, laser and other collagen biostimulators.
There are common and different aspects between these two treatments. Both use hyaluronic acid. However, the effects caused on the skin by each of these procedures will vary from case to case.
This is because the level of hyaluronic acid concentration in each treatment will differ. Facial fillers use a higher concentration of hyaluronic acid to add volume and correct small facial imperfections. In addition, the results last longer and can last for around a year.
On the other hand, Skinbooster uses a diluted version of hyaluronic acid, which reaches the structure of the skin, i.e. the epidermis and dermis. As a result, the effects don’t last as long, although they do improve the overall appearance of the treated skin.
