While the key ingredient is similar to dermal fillers and other types of skin boosters, its hyaluronic acid content is substantially different. The treatment is able to bioremodel the skin tissue, enhancing skin hydration and firmness by promoting collagen formation. It also has a compound formation called Hybrid Cooperative Complex (HCC), which consists of high- and low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid.

• High Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid: H-HA gives a lifting effect as the compound provides a stable hyaluronic acid structure in the dermis.
• Low-Molecular Weight Hyaluronic Acid: L-HA is released slowly into the skin dermis as a hybrid complex. This promotes hydration in the targeted area, allowing for youthful, plumper-looking skin.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Skin Booster stimulates fibroblast cells in the dermis to increase the natural production of collagen and elastin fibres. The treatment also reduces sagging and other skin laxity issues. With the hydrating effect of the skin booster, the skin’s elasticity is maintained, and dryness will be the least of your problems.

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Skin Booster is a safe treatment, but unfortunately, it is not for everyone. Those in dire need of improving their skin quality, such as its hydration, are usually the ones who avail themselves of the treatment. Other indications for individuals who are suited for the treatment include the following:

• Dry skin structure
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Middle-aged individuals
• Mild or moderate cases of skin laxity

Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Skin Booster treatment procedure involves injecting hyaluronic acid (HA) on each side of the face or neck at five injection points. The dermatologist carefully analyses these five points to determine where the HA should be injected, as the chosen areas must avoid critical blood vessels and nerve branches.

Numbing cream will be applied to the targeted area to lessen the pain associated with the treatment procedure. Although the pain is minimal, patients will hardly feel it. The doctor will proceed with the treatment after the numbing cream has settled into the skin. Each injected site may have raised bumps that can lead to temporary bruising or swelling. However, these minimal side effects usually subside within the day.

Since the downtime for this treatment is minimal, patients can quickly get back to doing their daily activities once they are done with the treatment. We only advise our patients to avoid consuming alcoholic drinks and any strenuous physical activity during the first 24 hours after the treatment.
