Restylane Skinboosters vs Profhilo: Which Skin Booster is Right for You?

Writer: Kate HumeKate Hume

Restylane Skinbooster

 

If your skin is feeling dull, dehydrated, or showing signs of ageing, skin boosters could be the perfect solution. These injectable treatments work by deeply hydrating the skin and stimulating collagen, giving you a fresher, more youthful glow—without adding volume.


Two of the most popular options are Profhilo and Restylane Skinboosters. While both improve skin quality, they work in slightly different ways. Let’s break it down so you can decide which one is best for you.


 


Profhilo

 

What are Skin Boosters?


Unlike traditional dermal fillers, skin boosters don’t add structure or volume. Instead, they deliver hyaluronic acid (HA)—a powerful hydrator—deep into the skin, improving elasticity, smoothness, and overall radiance.


They’re ideal for treating:

✔ Skin that lacks glow

✔ Fine lines and wrinkles

✔ Sleep lines and crepey skin

✔ Dehydration and dullness

✔ Signs of ageing

Which One Should You Choose?

💙 Choose Restylane Skinboosters if… you need targeted hydration in specific areas—especially the back of the hands, where Profhilo isn’t used. It’s also a great option for tackling fine lines, sleep lines, and textural issues.
