Skin Boosters
What are skin boosters?
Skin boosters are an aesthetic treatment that serves to hydrate, rejuvenate, and improve the total quality of your skin, and are especially useful for keeping a youthful and radiant complexion. These injectable treatments normally contain hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in skin renowned for its’ hydrating properties. Unlike dermal fillers, skin boosters do not noticeably alter the shape or volume of the face. Rather, they focus on refining the skin’s hydration, elasticity, and texture.
Why you should consider regular Skin Booster treatments?
- Deep Hydration: Skin boosters are excellent at adding much-needed hydration to ageing, dry, or dehydrated skin, helping to maintain a balanced moisture level and that dewy, youthful glow.
- Improved Skin Texture and Tone: Regular treatments can smooth out skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, pores, and minor imperfections, and contribute to a more even and refined skin tone.
- Collagen Stimulation: Most skin boosters aid in the creation of collagen, the key protein responsible for keeping skin elasticity and firmness. This improves skin tightness and reduces sagging.
- Radiant, Youthful Appearance: As they refine hydration and texture, skin boosters also give skin a more radiant and youthful appearance and help to restore that healthy glow that often reduces with age.
- Preventative Anti-Ageing: Regular use of skin boosters is a great proactive way to prevent signs of ageing from showing up too early and to postpone eventual more significant treatments. By keeping the skin hydrated and encouraging collagen production, skin boosters help to delay the onset of wrinkles and fine lines.
What Skin Boosters can do for your skin:
- Hydrate: Provide deep hydration, improving moisture retention and skin plumpness.
- Rejuvenate: Invigorate tired and dull skin, giving a healthier and more vibrant appearance.
- Smooth and Soften: Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, aiding in attaining smoother skin.
- Improve Elasticity: Stimulate collagen to improve skin elasticity and firmness.
Ideal Candidates for Skin Boosters:
- Skin boosters are appropriate for most looking to better their skin's overall health and appearance. They are particularly helpful for those showing early signs of ageing, those struggling with dry or dull skin, or anyone looking for a preventative anti-ageing treatment.
- The frequency of treatments depends on the individual's skin condition and the skin boosting product used. Normally, a series of 2-3 initial treatments followed by maintenance sessions every 6-12 months is advised to best maintain skin boosting benefits.
Some of the latest and greatest Skin Boosters that we prefer:

- Jalupro
Jalupro is a combination of amino acids and hyaluronic acid. Acting as a dermal skin collagen booster, it improves skin texture, addressing dark circles, and softening fine lines and wrinkles.

Jalupro is often used under the eyes to stimulate collagen and elastin, enhancing overall skin quality and delivering a brighter, fresher look.
- Nucleoskin
Nucleoskin is an anti-ageing skincare technology that delivers a combination of key active ingredients which include Polydeoxyribonucleotides (PDRN), Hyaluronic Acid, and Glutathione through an injectable technique. Together they improve skin tone, texture, and overall quality. This is done through stimulating collagen and elastin synthesis in skin, which leads to a plumping and lifting effect. The hyaluronic acid incites a significant hydrating effect, which leads to a reduced appearance of wrinkles and skin depressions. The glutathione, a powerful antioxidant, evens out skin tone, reduces blemishes, and brightens skin. It also offers protection against future environmental damage. Nucleoskin is particularly effective for correcting fine lines, wrinkles, lack of radiance, uneven skin texture, and dull complexion. A series of sessions is suggested with approximately 1.5 mL of the product utilised per area per session. A total of approximately 4 sessions, spaced about 7-14 days apart, are recommended. The treatment can also be tailored for body areas, with adjusted quantities and session frequencies.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)
PRP is:
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentrated form of plasma from your own blood that is rich in platelets. These platelets are important for the body’s natural process of healing and are loaded with growth factors. The procedure is simple but requires drawing a small amount of your blood, spinning it in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets, and then re-injecting the concentrated platelets in plasma into targeted areas, sometimes mixed with hyaluronic acid or vitamins mixed in.
Why you need to have this:
PRP therapy is used for regenerative properties, helping to stimulate collagen production, encouraging tissue repair, and speeding up the healing process. This makes it an effective treatment for different ageing concerns, both aesthetic and medical.
PRP for skin:
PRP is used to reduce wrinkles, fine lines, and scars, and to improve overall skin texture and tone. It’s especially effective in areas where signs of ageing are most visible, such as around the eyes, mouth, and neck. PRP can also be used to rejuvenate the facial skin, commonly referred to as a “vampire facial,” where it’s applied topically alongside microneedling.
PRP for hair:
PRP is injected into the scalp to stimulate hair growth. It’s used to treat various types of alopecia and other causes of hair loss. PRP therapy helps to strengthen hair follicles and promote new hair growth, making it a good choice for those experiencing hair thinning or loss.
Chemical peels
What chemical peels do:
Chemical peels involve the application of a chemical solution to the skin to remove the top layers in order to rejuvenate the skin and correct skin damage. The skin that grows back after a chemical peel is expected to be smoother, clearer, and younger looking. Chemical peels are used to treat wrinkles, discoloured skin, sun damage, and scarring (particularly acne scarring) — usually on the face.
Why everyone should do a peel at least once a year:
A chemical peel aids in maintaining skin health and appearance. It assists in the removal of dead skin cells, encourages the growth of new skin, and can improve many skin issues like dullness, acne, scarring, and hyperpigmentation. Regular peels can augment the efficacy of skincare products as these penetrate better on freshly exfoliated skin.
The best peels on the market that aesthetic salons can offer:
- Glycolic Acid Peel: Ideal for treating fine lines, acne, blackheads, dullness, and oiliness.
- Salicylic Acid Peel: Best for oily and acne-prone skin.
- TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid) Peel: Used for medium-depth peeling to treat deeper wrinkles, scars, and hyperpigmentation.
- Lactic Acid Peel: Suitable for sensitive skin and those new to peels, it hydrates and exfoliates gently.
- Mandelic Acid Peel: Good for all skin types, including dark skin, and treats fine lines, acne, and hyperpigmentation.
Each of these treatments offers unique benefits and can be tailored to individual needs and skin types. It’s important for clients to discuss their treatment goals with us prior to treatment, to determine which treatment is most suitable for their specific concerns.
