Skinbooster / biorevitalization

Skinbooster improves the appearance and function of the skin

The three key characteristics of good skin are texture (smooth and well-hydrated skin), elasticity (firmness and resilience), and even tone (no pigmentation changes or redness).

Skinboosters offer targeted treatment to improve exactly these qualities. When hyaluronic acid is injected into the skin, it revitalizes, smooths, and visibly brightens the complexion.

The hyaluronic acid used in skinboosters is not stabilized, which is why this is not a filler treatment. As a result, skinbooster treatments look very natural. Facial features or proportions do not change—rather, the appearance of the skin improves dramatically. Youthful softness, evenness, and radiance are restored to the face. The expression looks rested, fresh, and younger than before.

If you feel that filler treatments are not for you, but you would still like to brighten, deeply hydrate, and even out your skin, skinboosters are a targeted solution for you. After skinbooster treatments, the skin glows, softens, and visibly rejuvenates. However, you do not look “treated.” Most clients feel that a course of skinbooster treatments has taken about five years off their appearance—naturally.

The secret of skinboosters is hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid is a long-chain sugar molecule that can bind up to a thousand times its own molecular weight in water. It occurs naturally in the body, for example in the skin. As a person ages, the amount of hyaluronic acid in the body decreases significantly. The skin becomes superficially dry, dull, and uneven. On dry and moisture-depleted skin, wrinkles and irregularities are more visible than on well-hydrated skin.

The hyaluronic acid used in skinboosters is thinner and more fluid than the gel used in dermal fillers. When this lightweight hyaluronic acid is injected into larger areas of the skin, the skin’s moisture content increases significantly. This added hydration is reflected in a smoother, brighter, and firmer skin surface.

Skinbooster treatments are performed on clients of a wide range of ages. The youngest skinbooster patients are around 20 years old, while even skin over the age of 70 can benefit from skinbooster treatments.

During the treatment

Skinbooster treatment is an injectable procedure. Hyaluronic acid is delivered into the skin through dozens of micro-injections. Some clients may find the needle pricks uncomfortable. The treatment area is often numbed with a topical anesthetic cream before the procedure. The numbing cream takes 15–45 minutes to take effect, so we kindly ask clients to mention the need for topical anesthesia when booking their appointment.

Results can already be seen after the first treatment session. The best results are achieved with a course of three treatments. After completing a three-session treatment course, studies show that skin elasticity and structure have significantly improved.

The treatment course consists of biorevitalization or skinbooster treatments performed at 1–2 week intervals, for a total of three sessions. After completing the three-session course, one maintenance treatment per season change is sufficient to maintain the results.

After each skinbooster treatment, the skin may appear slightly red. Swelling and bruising are also possible. However, these can be prevented by starting the use of Arnizen cream one week before the first skinbooster treatment and continuing its use throughout the entire treatment course as a regimen.
