HOW ARE SKIN BOOSTERS DIFFERENT TO DERMAL FILLERS?

Although these products have the same active ingredient that can be found in traditional dermal fillers, they achieve completely different results. Traditional hyaluronic acid based dermal fillers are developed for lifting and volumising effect when injected into specific areas. Skin booster injections on the other hand allow the hyaluronic acid to disperse evenly in the treated area of the skin, which instantly enhances hydration as well as stimulating remodelling of our skin.

 

The main difference between skin boosters and dermal fillers is lift and longevity. Skin boosters add hydration, glow and restore elastin while dermal fillers add volume and soften lines to restore a more youthful appearance. Both treatments use key ingredient of hyaluronic acid and are injected under the skin using a needle. Dermal fillers can last anywhere from 9 to 12 months while Skin boosters will last up to 6 months and will need more regular maintenance.

The skin booster procedure commences with a strong numbing agent to minimize discomfort. The defining characteristic of skin boosters is the meticulous microdroplet delivery. Practitioners use specialized needles to infuse small amounts of hyaluronic acid (HA) just beneath the skin’s surface, ensuring precise dosing and depth. This method allows the HA to be distributed evenly throughout the dermis, resulting in a uniform, natural-looking rejuvenation.

Individual pain thresholds do vary,  while some may feel only a slight pinch, others might experience a bit more sensitivity. However, any discomfort is usually short-lived and manageable by those opting for the treatment.

Skin booster treatments offer the advantage of minimal downtime, with most patients able to swiftly return to their daily activities. Nevertheless, certain side effects, although generally temporary, can be expected:

  • Mild Swelling: After the procedure, some swelling at the injection sites is typical. This usually diminishes within 24 to 48 hours.
  • Redness: A temporary flush or redness in the treated areas is a common immediate reaction, which typically dissipates within a day.
  • Bruising: Some individuals might experience bruising, especially if they are prone to it. While it can last for a few days, makeup can be used to conceal it after the initial 24 hours.
  • Tenderness: The treated area can feel sore or tender for a day or two post-treatment.
  • Welt-like Appearance: For several hours after the treatment, the skin might display a welt-like appearance due to the superficial microdroplet delivery. This is a normal reaction and typically resolves within a few hours, leaving the skin smooth.

These side effects are generally short-lived, and the actual “downtime” – when one might prefer to stay away from social events or work – is minimal to none.

After undergoing a skin booster procedure, it’s essential to follow specific post-treatment guidelines to maximise results and ensure a smooth recovery. 

  • Avoid Intense Physical Activity: It’s advisable to skip strenuous workouts for at least 24 hours after the treatment. Excessive sweating can increase the risk of swelling or bruising.
  • Stay Sun-Safe: Protect the treated area from direct sunlight for a few days post-procedure. Excessive sun exposure can lead to prolonged swelling or discoloration. 
  • Avoid Touching the Treated Area: Try not to touch, rub, or apply pressure to the treated areas for at least 24 hours. This allows the product to settle properly.
  • Stay Hydrated: Drinking plenty of water can help expedite the integration of hyaluronic acid into the skin, enhancing the hydrating effects of the treatment.
  • Skip the Sauna and Steam: Heat treatments, like saunas or steam rooms, should be avoided for at least 48 hours post-procedure. Heat will exacerbate swelling.

Remember, it’s always a good idea to consult directly with your dermatologist or aesthetic specialist for any personalised post-care recommendations. They can provide guidance tailored to your specific needs and procedure details.
