Most people who want rejuvenation want to look fresher, not overdone. Skinboosters give the skin moisture. Combined with a volumising product like Structura, they can also add a little shape and depth.
What are skinboosters?
Skinboosters are fine injections of hyaluronic acid into the skin. Unlike classic fillers, they aren't meant to add volume or reshape. They hydrate the skin, refine its texture and make it more elastic. Think of them as a moisture reservoir in the skin, which becomes smoother and looks fresher.
Redensity 1: hydration and freshness
Redensity 1 combines hyaluronic acid with vitamins, minerals and amino acids. The skin gets moisture straight away and starts to renew itself. It suits fine lines, dull skin, or anyone who simply wants to look fresher.
Profhilo®: better skin quality
Profhilo® adds very little volume. Its job is to improve the skin itself. The hyaluronic acid spreads evenly, stimulates collagen and elastin and improves the tissue over several weeks. The skin becomes firmer and finer without your facial contours changing.
Structura: volume at depth
Structura is a newer product in the Profhilo range. Unlike classic skinboosters, it works in the fat tissue under the skin. It can restore lost volume, especially in the cheeks and midface, gently shaping the contours while also improving skin quality.
Treatment and number of sessions
- Consultation: we look at your skin, your wishes and possible combinations.
- Preparation: the skin is cleansed and numbed if needed.
- Injection:
- Skinboosters (Redensity 1, Profhilo) go into the upper layers of the skin.
- Structura goes deeper, into the fat under the skin, using a fine cannula.
- Afterwards: mild swelling or redness is possible and usually settles within 1 to 2 days.
- Follow-up: usually 2 sessions about 4 weeks apart, for skinboosters and Structura alike, then a top-up after 6 to 12 months.
What can be achieved?
- fresher, more even skin
- fewer fine lines
- more elastic, firmer skin
- a little natural volume where it has been lost
- more balanced facial contours
Who is it for?
- anyone who wants to look fresher without an obvious change
- people with early volume loss in the cheeks
- people with dull, dry or thin skin
- anyone who prefers minimal volume over classic fillers
It isn't suitable if you have active skin inflammation, an allergy to hyaluronic acid or other medical reasons against it, so we check your history carefully first.
Combining with other treatments
Skinboosters and Structura combine well with:
- RF microneedling for extra collagen
- Botox to relax overactive muscles
- laser treatments such as fractional lasers to refine texture and even out pigmentation
