Skin Booster Treatments
Skin boosters are a fantastic option for both men and women looking to improve the quality and appearance of their skin.
HA, collagen and PDRN in the form of skin boosters all deliver high levels of hydration which can help improve skin tone, texture, firmness and even reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
For patients who want to achieve an anti-ageing effect without altering their appearance, skin boosters are a great option - and they can be used in conjunction with other injectable treatments such as dermal filler and Botox anti-wrinkle for even better results.
The treatment is safe, relatively pain free with minimal downtime, and following the initial course of treatments maintenance is only required every 6-9 months.
Treatment Cost Explained
The initial treatment cost of all skinbooster treatments includes the cost of a full vial of serum that is for your exclusive use. Depending on how much of this serum is used in each treatment your vial of serum is adequate for a further two to five fortnightly top-up treatments for which you will only pay the procedure cost.

How Many Treatments Are Required
If it’s your first time having skin boosters we recommend 2-3 treatments spaced two weeks apart. The serum included in the cost of your first treatment is usually enough for a complete course of treatments after which you can expect your results to last 6-9 months. At that point you can have a single treatment to maintain your results and ensure your skin is glowing and hydrated all year round.
Are There Side Effects
Skin boosters are a safe treatment with little to no downtime.
As the serum is organically natural the risk of any adverse side effects from the serum itself are extremely rare.
As with any injectable treatment you may experience swelling, bruising and redness to the injection site - you can use arnica gel on the area to help this if you wish. It's common to have small bumps where the product was injected but these typically disappear within a few hours as the products disperses in the skin.
Here are a few things to avoid after your skin booster treatment:
- Do not touch the area for 6 hours after your treatment
- No makeup on the area for 24 hours
- Avoid heavy exercise for 24 hours
- Avoid facials/sunbeds/chemical peels/sauna/swimming etc for 2 weeks
Who Is Suitable To Have This Treatment
Skin Booster treatment is suitable for most skin types. No matter your age, if you want to improve the texture and tone of your skin to achieve a brighter, younger-looking complexion, you could benefit from a Skin Booster treatment.
