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.
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
