Skin Boosters

Written by Skin Renewal Medical Board
Restylane Skin boosters work to improve the skin’s health and quality by boosting hydration levels deep within the skin, effectively increasing hydration, overall smoothness, elasticity, firmness, and radiance. This type of treatment is also known as “Hydro-lifting” or “Hydro-filling”.

The Hyaluronic acid present in the Skin Boosters is known for its hydrating properties, which directly addresses the initial cause of ageing, namely loss of hydration.

The added hydration which is also responsible for the immediate plumping effect also stimulates the deeper layers of the skin, much like a mesotherapy treatment, resulting in the production of new collagen and elastin, addressing the second cause of ageing, namely loss of strength, elasticity and integrity of the skin.

Why should one have Skin Booster Treatments?

To understand the treatment and why it is so important, you have to grasp the causes of ageing and wrinkling which start with two main areas of decline, namely:

  1. Dehydration of the skin.
  2. The slowing down of metabolic processes that in turn slows down the production of collagen in the skin, resulting in sagging and wrinkling.


frequently asked
questions

Are Restylane Skin Boosters available at all Skin Renewal centres?
What will I experience during the treatment?

First, a numbing cream is applied before the procedure to avoid any discomfort. The Skin Boosters are injected into the skin, meaning that it reaches the deeper levels of the skin, giving the skin the tools it needs to rejuvenate itself. The tiny injections further stimulate the production of collagen as the body floods the affected area with healing compounds, both of which address the initial signs of ageing.

The areas most commonly treated are the face, neck, and décolleté, with great results also being seen on the hands. Treatments around the eyes address fine lines, thinning skin, and dark circles. The overall effect is improved skin quality, better hydration, and an even skin tone.

What are the benefits of having Skin Booster treatments?
  • A more youthful-looking Skin
  • Improved complexion
  • Improved skin relief and texture
  • Reduction of wrinkles
  • Skin lifting
  • Acne scarring and Stretchmark improvement
  • A healthy, glowing, hydrated skin
Which areas can be treated with skin boosters?

Areas that are treated with great results include:

  • Face
  • Neck
  • Décolleté
  • Hands
  • Body: sagging skin of the stomach and buttocks
  • Scars and stretch marks
How often should I have a treatment?

For optimal results, 3-6 treatments are required, dependent on the skin quality, with 2-4 weeks between each session.

What results can be expected?

An overall improvement in skin quality with an increase in skin tightness and elasticity with improved hydration and texture of the skin. Results will continue to improve over time with maximum results seen at about 3 months after the treatment course.

Directly after the treatment, there will be very small bumps where the product has been injected that resemble tiny insect bites. These bumps will disappear over the next few hours once they are absorbed into the deeper layers of the skin. The result is plumper, firmer, and more hydrated skin. Apart from the bumps, there may be some mild redness and a chance of bruising.

Are Skin Boosters safe for all skin types?

Yes, Skin Booster treatments can be safely performed on all skin types with excellent results.
