How it works
A skin booster is a very fine hyaluronic acid gel, placed in tiny amounts just under the skin across the cheeks, the neck or the backs of the hands.
It draws in water and prompts the skin to renew its own collagen, so the surface looks smoother and catches the light evenly. It adds no volume, so your face keeps its shape.
Good for
Fine lines on the cheeks and around the mouth
Dull, dehydrated or crêpey skin
The neck, the décolletage and the backs of the hands
Your course
Sessions are four weeks apart, so the skin has time to respond before the next one, and most people see the change from the second.
Week 0
Consultation
Forty-five minutes with a doctor, a skin assessment in daylight and a written plan with prices.
Week 1
First session
Numbing cream for twenty minutes, then fine injections across each area in about half an hour.
Weeks 5 and 9
Second and third
Each session builds on the last, with a two-week review after the first to check how you respond.
Week 13
Season review
Photographs in the same north light show what changed, and when a top-up would help.

Small bumps at each point settle within a day, so most people plan a quiet evening rather than time off.
Often, yes. Skin boosters pair well with a light peel or anti-wrinkle injections, spaced two weeks apart.
It uses a thinner hyaluronic acid spread through the skin, so it hydrates and leaves the shape of your face as it is.
