Skin Boosters: How Do They Work, Benefits, Side Effects And Cost

Are you looking for a way to achieve hydrated, radiant, and youthful skin? Have you ever wondered how to get that coveted lit-from-within glow? Skin boosters might be the innovative solution you’re searching for. But what exactly are skin boosters, and how can they revolutionize your skincare routine? Keep reading to find out more.

What Are Skin Boosters?

Skin boosters are injectable treatments formulated to improve the texture, elasticity, hydration, and overall appearance of your skin. This treatment involves using hyaluronic acid (HA), a gentle gel-like substance strategically injected under the skin’s surface. By increasing the levels of HA in the skin, skin boosters effectively enhance its elasticity and firmness and help to promote overall skin rejuvenation.

What Is Hyaluronic Acid (HA)?

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a natural component of the skin known for its excellent moisture-retaining properties. However, several factors, such as ageing, sun exposure, genetics, smoking, and environmental stressors, can reduce HA levels in the skin, leading to dryness, dehydration, and visible ageing signs.

What Do Skin Booster Do?

Skin Boosters are an excellent solution for improving skin hydration levels and stimulating collagen production, which can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while promoting firmer, more youthful-looking skin. 

They are versatile enough to be used on different skin areas and types, including the face, neck, chest, and hands. Unlike fillers, Skin Boosters actively work to increase collagen and elastin levels, contributing to long-term skin health and resilience. Their exceptional ability to enhance hydration makes them a great option for achieving healthy and rejuvenating skin.

Do Skin Boosters Really Work?

Definitely! Skin Boosters are proven to provide outstanding results. They effectively address dryness, rough texture, and fine lines. To maximize these benefits, it is advisable to have two sessions per year for maintenance to ensure consistent results and optimal hydration levels.

What Are the Benefits of Skin Boosters?

Here are the top 10 benefits of skin boosters

Improved Hydration:

Skin boosters replenish moisture levels deep within the skin, providing intense hydration and combating dryness.

Enhanced Radiance:

Skin boosters infuse the skin with vital nutrients and hydration, resulting in a revitalized and radiant complexion.

Reduction of Fine Lines and Wrinkles:

Skin boosters stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity, leading to a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Even Skin Tone:

Skin boosters help achieve a healthier and more balanced skin tone by delivering essential nutrients and hydration deep into the skin.

Firmer Skin:

Skin boosters can improve skin firmness and texture, resulting in a firmer and youthful appearance.

Increased Elasticity:

Skin boosters promote the skin’s natural elasticity, making it more resilient and less prone to sagging.

Reduction of Dry Patches:

Skin boosters can alleviate dry patches and rough areas by delivering hydration directly into the skin, leaving it smooth and supple.

Minimization of Acne Scarring:

Skin boosters can help reduce the appearance of acne scars and other types of scarring, promoting smoother skin texture.

Prevention of Premature Aging:

Skin boosters can help prevent premature ageing by providing essential nutrients and hydration, keeping the skin youthful and healthy.

Promotes Overall Skin Health:

Skin boosters contribute to overall skin health by nourishing the skin, improving its resilience, and protecting it from environmental damage. 

What Is Difference Between Dermal Fillers & Skin Boosters?

Fillers and boosters have two major differences: their structure and purpose.

Fillers have cross-linking bonds that make them firmer and heavier. They are primarily used to lift and restore volume and augment facial features such as lips and cheeks.

Skin boosters, on the other hand, cannot be used to augment facial features. These are non-crosslinked hyaluronic acids injected more superficially into the deep dermis or hypodermis. They have a refreshing effect on the skin and help in improving skin hydration and reducing superficial scars. Boosters are perfect for enhancing the quality of the skin.

What Are The Different Types Of Skin Boosters?

Various types of skin boosters are available in the market, and each one offers different benefits and features.

Below are the top 3 skin boosters recommended by most dermatologists in India

1. Juvéderm Volite®

2. Profhilo®

3. Viscoderm®.

These products have unique characteristics that address different indications, treatment protocols, and longevity of results.

How Much Does Skin Booster Cost?

The cost of a skin booster can range from INR 10,000 to INR 15,000 per session. However, the cost may vary depending on various factors, such as the type of skin booster, the number of booster shots required, individual skin care goals and preferences, and the dermatologist’s expertise and geographical location.

It is crucial to consult with a qualified dermatologist to determine the most suitable skin booster for your specific needs and budget. Moreover, some clinics may offer package deals or discounts on multiple sessions, which can reduce the overall treatment cost.
