Skin hydration boosters

Skin hydration boosters are treatments, composed of various substances, designed to deeply hydrate the skin from within. Unlike traditional topical moisturisers that work on the skin’s surface, these boosters are delivered directly into the skin’s layers, providing intense and long-lasting hydration. They focus on improving skin quality, hydration, and elasticity across a broader area.

The benefits include significantly increased skin hydration, resulting in a plumper and more supple complexion. They also improve skin texture, making it smoother and more refined, and can enhance overall skin tone, leading to a more radiant glow. Furthermore, skin boosters can help to soften the appearance of fine lines and create a more youthful and refreshed look without adding significant volume.

While the face is a common treatment area for skin hydration boosters, they are also highly effective for hydrating and rejuvenating other areas prone to dryness and showing signs of aging. These include the neck, décolletage (upper chest), and the back of the hands, all of which can benefit from the deep hydration and skin quality improvements offered by these treatments.

The cost varies depending on the treatment extent, areas, and the experience of the clinic.

Typically, most treatments range from $700 for single areas (like around your eyes), to over $2000 for full face treatments.

Yes, skin hydration boosters are often combined with other treatments to boost collagen, smooth wrinkles, and regenerative skin treatments like Rejuran.

Discomfort during skin hydration booster treatments is generally well-tolerated. Prior to the treatment, a topical numbing cream is typically applied to the treatment area to minimise any potential discomfort.

You may notice some immediate improvement in skin hydration and a subtle plumping effect shortly after the treatment. However, the full benefits, particularly regarding improvements in skin texture and radiance, usually become more apparent over a few days to a few weeks as the nutrients integrate into the skin and attracts moisture.

The results of skin hydration boosters typically last between 6 to 12 months. To maintain optimal hydration and the associated benefits, many individuals opt for maintenance treatments every 6 months. The longevity can vary depending on individual skin type, lifestyle factors, and the specific product used.

For the best initial results, a course of 2 to 3 treatment sessions, spaced approximately 2 to 4 weeks apart, is often recommended. This initial series helps to build a foundation of hydration within the skin. Following this, maintenance treatments can be scheduled every 6-12 months to sustain the benefits.

Downtime after skin hydration boosters is generally minimal to none. You may experience some mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the treatment sites, but this usually resolves within a few days. You can typically return to your normal activities immediately after the procedure.

Skin hydration boosters are considered safe when administered by qualified and experienced medical professionals using reputable products. The molecules used are naturally occurring substances in the body, making allergic reactions rare. As with any treatment, there are potential risks of mild and temporary side effects like redness, swelling, and bruising, which are typically easily-managed.
