What Are Skin Boosters?
Skin boosters are injectable treatments — usually based on hyaluronic acid or similar actives — that improve skin hydration, texture and quality rather than adding structural volume. Common UK products include Profhilo, Seventy Hyal and Restylane Skinboosters.
How they differ from dermal filler
Dermal filler is placed to restore volume or shape. Skin boosters are typically injected more superficially to affect skin quality, glow and hydration.
They complement — not replace — filler when both concerns exist.
Who are they for?
People with dullness, crepey texture, early laxity or dehydration who want gradual improvement without changing facial structure.
Suitability depends on skin condition and product — consultation is required.
Frequently asked questions
- How long do skin boosters last?
- Many HA boosters last around four to nine months depending on product and protocol. Maintenance sessions are common.
