Skin Booster
Skin boosters are injectable treatments designed to improve hydration, texture and overall appearance focusing on enhancing the quality of the skin by increasing moisture and elasticity.
The treatment involves injecting hyaluronic acid (a naturally occurring substance in the body that attracts and retains water) into the skins deeper layers.
The Hyaluronic acid helps to rehydrate the skin giving it a radiant appearance.
Skin boosters are popular for those hoping to achieve a natural glow without drastic changes to facial volume or structure.
Effects last after 2-3 sessions.
