Skin Booster / Skin Peeling
Microinjection of HA + vitamins + amino acids for deep hydration
About This Treatment
Skin Booster uses microinjection technology to deliver non-cross-linked HA, vitamins (B, C, E), and amino acids (glycine, L-proline) uniformly into dermis. Common products: Juvederm Volite (FDA-approved) and Restylane Skinboosters.
Unlike fillers, it hydrates and nourishes skin overall rather than adding volume, improving radiance, transparency, and elasticity. Peak effects at 2-3 weeks; benefits last 6-9 months.
Mechanism of Action
Microneedles (0.6-1.2mm depth) pierce upper dermis multiple times, injecting non-cross-linked HA and nutrients directly into tissue. Non-cross-linked HA is low-MW, highly diffusible, distributing evenly. Vitamins and amino acids activate fibroblasts and enhance collagen/HA synthesis. HA undergoes biodegradation; effects fade at 6-9 months. Maintenance treatments provide cumulative benefits.
Indications
Expected Results
Immediate skin plumpness and radiance post-injection. At 2-3 weeks, skin transparency improves and firmness increases 20-30%. Texture refines, fine lines improve 15-25%. Effects last 6-9 months. Regular maintenance (every 3 months) provides continuous improvement.
Clinical Evidence
Risks & Side Effects
