The easiest explanation of Skin Boosters is a literal translation of their name: \”skin boost\” = strengthening and enhancing the skin.
Skin Boosters are injectable substances similar in texture to gel. There are various types of Skin Boosters, each with different compositions. They typically contain hyaluronic acid (either cross-linked or non-cross-linked) and sometimes additional substances like vitamins and minerals.
Due to its ability to attract large amounts of water, hyaluronic acid improves skin texture, elasticity, hydration, and overall appearance, making the skin look healthier and more radiant. Skin Boosters also stimulate the skin\’s self-renewal process, increasing collagen and elastin production for longer-lasting effects.
If you don’t have significant issues with loose and wrinkled skin and start using Skin Boosters in time, even two treatments a year can be sufficient. They are most commonly applied to the skin of the face, neck, and décolletage, as well as for hand rejuvenation, but can also be used to tighten the skin on the abdomen, upper arms, or thighs, and around the knees.
The treatment is suitable for anyone looking to eliminate early signs of aging and prevent premature aging. Combining Skin Boosters with other treatments is desirable and possible, to be discussed with a doctor during consultations.
The Purpose of Skin Boosters:
- Improve skin texture and make it more radiant
- Reduce fine lines and wrinkles
- Give the skin a healthier appearance
- Hydrate the skin
- Firm and enhance skin texture
- Improve skin elasticity
- Reduce mild redness, especially those caused by dryness and dehydration
Difference Between Skin Boosters and Fillers
Hyaluronic fillers offer greater lifting and volumizing potential, typically lasting from 1 to 2 years. Skin Boosters are used for hydration, radiance, stimulating collagen and elastin production, providing a lifting effect, reducing fine lines, and giving the skin a youthful look, with effects lasting for several months.
Difference Between Skin Boosters and Mesotherapy
Skin Boosters and mesotherapy have more similarities than differences, which can be confusing.
Skin Boosters provide a more pronounced lifting effect and longer-lasting results, especially with regular treatments. The application method is similar to biorevitalization, involving fewer injection points (usually around 10). One of the most important ingredients in both treatments is hyaluronic acid, but the formulation in Skin Boosters tends to last longer, providing longer-lasting results with fewer treatments.
Mesotherapy cocktails contain a wider range of substances, decided upon by the doctor during consultations. In addition to hyaluronic acid, they include peptides, amino acids, vitamins, and minerals, serving to hydrate the skin and improve its appearance, as well as to heal it.
The Meaning Behind the Names:
- \”Mezo\” from \”mesoderm,\” the middle layer of skin, and \”therapy\” means treatment, addressing unwanted issues like dehydration, undernourishment, wrinkles, spots, dark circles, scars, stretch marks, hair loss, cellulite, and fat deposits.
- \”Skin Boost\” means strengthening, enhancing, improving skin appearance, reducing wrinkles, and providing instant results.
What Does the Treatment Involve?
The treatment is quite similar to mesotherapy. It most closely resembles 3-point mesotherapy (biorevitalization in 3 points).
A local anesthetic is used, the treatment lasts about 30 minutes, and small spots may appear at the injection sites, usually disappearing the same day. Initial effects are visible immediately after the treatment, with the full effect becoming apparent one to two weeks later.
