Skin Boosters

At Lakeside Regenerrative Clinic, skin booster treatments are designed to improve skin hydration, texture, elasticity, and overall quality. Unlike traditional dermal fillers that primarily restore volume and contour, skin boosters are administered within the skin to support hydration and improve its appearance and feel.

Treatment is selected according to the patient's skin condition, concerns, and individual treatment goals.

1. Principle

The principle of skin booster treatment is to improve skin quality from within by delivering hydrating and skin-supporting substances into the appropriate layers of the skin.

Many skin boosters contain hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that helps attract and retain moisture within the skin.

Key principles include:

• Improving skin hydration
• Supporting skin elasticity and firmness
• Enhancing skin texture and smoothness
• Improving skin radiance and overall appearance
• Supporting collagen and skin remodelling, depending on the product used
• Addressing early signs of skin ageing

2. Mechanism

Depending on the formulation, skin boosters are delivered through a series of precise superficial or intradermal injections.

Hyaluronic acid-based skin boosters increase the skin's ability to retain moisture, helping improve hydration and skin suppleness. Certain formulations may also stimulate fibroblast activity and support collagen production, contributing to gradual improvements in skin texture and elasticity.

Unlike volumising dermal fillers, skin boosters are generally intended to enhance skin quality rather than significantly alter facial volume or shape.

Overall mechanism:

Intradermal delivery → Hydration and tissue support → Improved skin quality → Enhanced texture, elasticity and radiance

3. Indications

Skin booster treatments may be considered for patients experiencing concerns related to dehydration, skin texture, elasticity, and early signs of ageing.

Common indications include:

• Dehydrated or dry skin
• Fine lines
• Reduced skin elasticity
• Rough or uneven skin texture
• Dull or tired-looking skin
• Uneven skin tone
• Mild loss of skin firmness
• Early signs of skin ageing
• Skin quality concerns in the face, neck, décolletage, or hands, depending on the treatment used

The specific product, injection technique, treatment area, and number of sessions are determined according to individual skin characteristics and clinical assessment.

4. Contraindications & Precautions

Skin booster treatment requires appropriate patient selection and assessment before the procedure.

Contraindications may include:

• Active bacterial, viral, or fungal infection at the treatment site
• Open wounds or significantly compromised skin
• Active inflammatory skin conditions in the treatment area
• Known hypersensitivity to the product or its components
• Certain uncontrolled medical conditions

Important precautions include:

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding, depending on the product and clinical circumstances
• Bleeding or clotting disorders
• Use of anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications
• Known severe allergies
• Recent cosmetic or dermatological procedures
• A history of significant reactions to injectable treatments

Patients should provide a complete medical history and disclose all medications and allergies before treatment.
