Treatments

Skin Boosters

Skin boosters are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that place tiny amounts of product just beneath the surface of the skin. This is usually performed with fine micro-needling or specialised delivery devices designed to distribute the product evenly across the treatment area.

Every person’s skin is different, so experiences and outcomes may vary. Some people may notice visible changes, while for others the effect is more subtle. Recovery time and comfort can also differ from person to person. A private consultation with a qualified health professional is recommended to discuss whether this treatment is suitable for you.

Benefits

Post-Treatment Benefits

Here’s what clients notice post-treatment — and what you can expect if you’re a good candidate:

  • Intense hydration that topical cosmetic products can’t match
  • Improved skin texture and tone
  • Reduction in fine lines, crepey skin, and the appearance of wrinkles
  • Firmer, more elastic skin with better resilience
  • A more radiant, youthful appearance
  • Subtle softening of acne scars and dry patches
  • A better canvas for makeup — or confidence to go without

Bonus? Skin Boosters encourage natural collagen production and stimulate
fibroblast cell activity, meaning you’re not just treating the skin
you’re improving its function.

Treatment Areas

While most people associate injectable Skin Boosters with the face, the treatment is versatile. Here’s where we use them most:

  • Face: Cheeks, jawline, facial features, temples, forehead, and injection sites around the eyes
  • Neck and décolletage: Especially for skin laxity and sun damage
  • Hands: To restore skin firmness and smooth texture
  • Under-eye area: For dark circles and dehydration
  • Acne-scarred or textured zones: For overall skin rejuvenation

If you’ve got loose skin, dehydrated skin, or dullness in any of these areas, Hydrating Skin Booster injections could be your new skin ritual.

Skin Boosters are incredibly versatile and ideal for a wide range of
skin types and skin concerns.

Ideal Candidates

  • Anyone experiencing skin dryness, dehydration, or loss of hydration
  • Those with crepey skin or signs of ageing from environmental factors
  • People looking to boost skin balance and a healthy glow
  • Clients not ready for filler products but seeking visible improvement
  • Younger skin aims to preserve natural beauty and hydration
  • Mature skin needs skin restoration and elasticity repair

Less Ideal Candidates

  • Active skin conditions such as infection or inflammation
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals (precautionary only)
  • Those with autoimmune disorders — check with a medical professional
  • Clients expecting dramatic results similar to acid fillers or volume-enhancing fillers

Before Your Treatment Session

  • Avoid alcohol, fish oil, aspirin, or depilatory creams for 3–5 days
  • Increase hydration with plenty of water
  • Pause actives like retinol or chemical peels 2–3 days pre-treatment
  • No laser hair removal sessions or aggressive treatments the week prior
  • Postpone if you’re unwell or have a cold sore

A well-prepped skin barrier equals a smoother procedure and better results.

Treatment Procedure

Here’s how your Skin Booster treatment usually goes:

  • Cleanse and assess: We assess your aesthetic goals and cleanse the area
  • Apply numbing cream: To reduce any discomfort during micro-needle injections
  • Application of Skin Booster product using multi-needles, a beauty gun,
    or a fine cannula in a uniform pattern
  • Post-treatment care: We apply a cool compress and barrier balm

Most clients describe the sensation as minor pinching or minor swelling, with the entire
procedure taking about 30–45 minutes. There may be pronounced swelling around
sensitive areas like the under-eye zone or lips.

Aftercare & Recovery

Recovery is minimal — but not to be ignored. Here’s what clients are advised:

  • No makeup for 24 hours
  • Avoid excessive sweating, saunas, or steam for 48 hours
  • Skip actives and stick to gentle skincare
  • Use SPF 50+ daily
  • Expect some minor swelling or bruising — this is totally normal
  • Apply cool compresses if needed

Your skin structure needs time to absorb and distribute the product evenly.
Trust the process.

Possible Reactions

While Skin Booster treatments are a safe treatment, there are a few possible reactions:

Common:

  • Bruising
  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Tenderness at injection sites

Rare:

  • Allergic reaction to ingredients
  • Infection from poor hygiene

Always ensure you’re working with a cosmetic doctor or cosmetic injector
with solid knowledge of facial anatomy and peripheral blood safety protocols.

Treatment Plan

For best results:

  • Start with 1–3 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart
  • Then switch to maintenance treatments every 4–6 months
  • Some clients combine aesthetic injections, laser treatments, or peels

The goal of Skin Boosters is long-lasting results, not just a one-off boost.

Treatment Cost

Here’s a general guide:

  • Single Skin Booster session: $350–$700
  • Package of 3 sessions: $900–$1,500
  • Additional zones (e.g. neck, hands): $250–$450

Costs vary based on Skin Booster product, area treated, and your injector’s expertise.
Clinics offering premium medical aesthetics services often use advanced Micro Filler systems or
injector guns for precision.

Treatment Suitability

If you’re looking for more skin radiance, smoothness and elasticity, Skin boosters are a fantastic, non-invasive treatment option. They can be used on the delicate skin of your face, under eyes, neck, décolletage and the backs of your hands.

Skin Boosters are a great treatment for clients who have ‘done it all’ and want to take their skincare to the next level and even for younger clients who may be looking to smooth the appearance of acne scars.

Treatment Cycle

Each session takes approximately 30 minutes. Results can last anywhere from 6-12 months depending on how much you exercise and how much UV exposure you have. Depending on your unique needs and your life style, 6-monthly maintenance treatments may be required to maintain the superior hydration and skin quality provided by the treatment
