Your introduction to Skin Boosters

GET IN TOUCH

In recent years, aesthetic medicine has witnessed a surge in innovative treatments designed to enhance the skin’s texture, tone, and overall appearance.  Among these, skin boosters have gained popularity in UK aesthetic clinics for their ability to rejuvenate the skin from within.  The twice daily generic topical moisturisers, that tend to get absorbed into a pillowcase, are being thrown in the bin.

Skin boosters are non-surgical cosmetic treatments aimed at improving the skin’s hydration, elasticity, and overall quality. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which add volume to specific areas, skin boosters focus on hydrating and revitalising the skin. These treatments often involve injecting a gel-like substance into the skin, stimulating collagen production, and promoting a smoother, more radiant complexion.

Skinboosters can optimise your skin health routine

The main ingredients in skin boosters can vary depending on the specific product used. However, hyaluronic acid (HA) is a common component. HA is a naturally occurring substance in the skin that attracts and retains moisture, contributing to its plumpness and elasticity. Some skin boosters may also contain vitamins, amino acids, and antioxidants to nourish the skin from within.

Skin boosters are suitable for individuals looking to address signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of skin elasticity. They are also effective for improving overall skin texture and hydration. Skin boosters are versatile and can be used on various areas, including the face, neck, and hands.

Benefits of Skin Boosters:

  2. Reduced Fine Lines and Wrinkles: The stimulation of collagen production helps diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  3. Enhanced Skin Texture: Skin boosters contribute to smoother, softer skin with improved texture.
  4. Natural-Looking Results: The subtle enhancement provided by skin boosters creates a natural and refreshed appearance.

Pain and Safety Considerations:

Skin booster treatments are generally well-tolerated with minimal discomfort. A topical anaesthetic should be applied before the procedure to ensure a more comfortable experience. At Atanga Aesthetics this is offered to every patient and the ‘No pain no gain’ motto does not exist here.

While skin boosters are considered safe, there is a minimal risk of vascular occlusion, a condition where blood flow to a specific area is blocked. This emphasises the importance of seeking treatment from a skilled professional who can minimise the risk of complications.

Where Are Skin Boosters Used, Treatment Frequency and lasting effects:

Skin boosters can be used on various areas, including the face, neck, décolletage, and hands. The number of treatments needed varies based on individual goals and the condition of the skin. Typically, a series of sessions is recommended, with treatments spaced a few weeks apart to allow for optimal results.

The longevity of results from skin booster treatments can vary depending on factors such as the product used and individual skin characteristics. On average, results may last several months, after which maintenance treatments can be considered to sustain the benefits.

When considering skin booster treatments, it is crucial to consult with a qualified practitioner who can tailor the approach to individual needs, ensuring both safety and optimal results. With the right guidance and expertise, individuals can enjoy the benefits of skin boosters for a rejuvenated and radiant complexion.
