Commonly Asked Questions About

Skin Booster is micro injections of dermal filler that are injected into the skin, rather than underneath the skin like most dermal filler treatments. Very small amounts are injected either using a beauty gun or by hand, in multiple injection sites. The product is placed superficially within the skin. in the papillary dermis. The treatment activates fibroblasts which stimulates the formation of new collagen and elastin, bringing deep hydration.
