Skin booster treatments are a soft, gel-like substance called hyaluronic acid.

This is a substance that occurs naturally in the skin and holds incredible amounts of moisture. However, hyaluronic acid depletes with many factors, including age, sun damage, genetics, smoking, and environmental factors, which is what causes skin to become dry and dehydrated.

Skin boosters are a popular and effective treatment for enhancing the appearance and health of your skin. By utilizing hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, skin boosters work to restore moisture, promote collagen production, and improve skin elasticity.

Key Benefits of Skin Boosters:

  1. Hydration: Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture in the skin, making it look plumper and more hydrated.
  2. Improved Skin Texture: The applications improve the skin’s texture by enhancing its smoothness and firmness.
  3. Increased Elasticity: Collagen and elastin production is stimulated, which can help with the skin’s ability to bounce back, reducing the appearance of fine lines and sagging.
  4. Radiance and Glow: The added moisture and collagen boost result in healthier, glowing skin.
  5. Not a dermal filler: Unlike dermal fillers, which add volume, skin boosters work beneath the surface to enhance skin health and appearance.

The treatment involves microdroplet applications, which allow for precise application of the hyaluronic acid under the skin. This technique triggers the skin’s natural repair mechanisms and can result in long-lasting improvements.

Since hyaluronic acid is already found in the skin, the body generally tolerates it well, making this a safe and effective option for many looking to rejuvenate their skin.

While the treatment doesn’t have the same volume-enhancing effect as dermal fillers, it provides more subtle and natural improvements, helping you achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance over time.

Skin Boosters vs. Polynucleotides

Both hyaluronic acid and polynucleotides are powerful ingredients used in skin treatments, but they function in distinct ways to promote skin health and rejuvenation.

Skin Booster:

Primary Function: Hyaluronic acid is mostly used to hydrate and restore moisture to the skin, keeping it smooth, firm, and plump. It’s an excellent tool for improving skin texture and providing an instant boost in hydration.

Polynucleotides:

Primary Function: Polynucleotides are often considered more advanced due to their ability to not only hydrate but also stimulate deeper cellular processes that lead to long-term skin rejuvenation and anti-aging effects.

Comparison:

Feature Skin Boosters Polynucleotides
Main Function Hydrates the skin, improves texture, supports cell function Hydrates, protects cells, stimulates collagen & elastin production
Mechanism of Action Retains moisture, lubricates, supports extracellular matrix Binds to cell receptors, boosts collagen & elastin, reduces oxidative stress
