SKIN BOOSTERS
Injectable skin boosters and bioremodelling treatments have been gaining increasing popularity in recent years and have become a vital component of injectable rejuvenation treatments.
They work wonderfully in conjunction with (or instead of) more traditional injectable treatments such as neurotoxins and fillers and can be very impactful in improving overall skin quality, health and texture.
Although there are a lot of overlapping features within the various biostimulator and skin booster treatments, depending on your main skin concern, we take a targeted approach in choosing the best one for you following your consultation.
-
This wonderful skin booster by the Swiss company Teoxane, aims to improve overall skin quality. It exhibits a “redensification” action, meaning it helps to maintain and restore skin density. Through its unique blend of hyaluronic acid, anti-oxidants, B vitamins and amino acids, it not only helps to stimulate collagen and improve skin hydration, but it also confers protection against oxidative stress.

This skin booster by Merz Pharma is especially indicated for revitalisation of early-onset photodamaged skin.
It works by targeting the early signs of photodamage, focusing on rehydration of the skin, improvement in skin suppleness, elasticity and firmness, and improving the appearance of pigmentation and fine lines. It does so through the action of its key ingredients: Hyaluronic Acid and Glycerol. Together they work as powerful hydrators, boosting skin hydration and glow from the inside out.

You will undergo a thorough consultation in clinic in order to determine whether the treatment is suitable and beneficial for you.
Treatment involves a series of microinjections using mesotherapy techniques, which can be performed across the whole facial area, or to target other areas of concern including the decolletage, neck and the backs of the hands.

Following these skin-boosting treatments, patients find that they are able to continue their day as normal, with no restrictions. However we do warn that there may be localised redness and swelling which starts to resolve after 1-2 days.
Often you will be aware of small little pumps under the skin that resemble mosquito bites. These tend to disappear by the 2nd day.
At the end of your treatment you will be treated to a complimentary session under our medical-grade LED lamp, with settings tailored to your specific treatment needs.
Like with all injectable treatments, it is recommended that you avoid exercise or excessive straining for 24hours post treatment, as well as avoiding excessive heat or rubbing and pressure to the area.
It is recommended that you have 2-3 sessions at 4-6 weeks apart for best results.
Bio-remodelling and mesotherapy treatments are suitable for all healthy individuals above the age of 21, but like all of our injectable therapies we are not able to offer them if you are pregnant or breast-feeding.
