A Skinbooster is chosen according to skin quality, age, the treated area and the desired objective : deep hydration, improvement of radiance, prevention of skin ageing or correction of crepey skin. Not all Skinboosters have the same composition or the same indications. A medical assessment makes it possible to select the most suitable treatment to obtain a natural and progressive result.
The Skinbooster is an injectable treatment designed to improve skin quality without modifying facial volumes.
It acts directly on skin hydration, texture and suppleness.
The Skinbooster is a lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid. This molecule, naturally present in the skin, has a great capacity to retain water. With age, its quantity gradually decreases, causing a loss of hydration, thinner skin and a decrease in elasticity.
Injected into the dermis, the Skinbooster improves the skin environment. The skin gradually becomes more radiant, more supple and its surface more even.
The choice of Skinbooster mainly depends on the initial condition of the skin. Two patients of the same age may have completely different needs depending on their genetics, sun exposure, lifestyle or skincare habits.
Young skin with superficial dehydration generally requires a different approach from mature skin with a significant loss of firmness. Several elements are considered when making the choice : the level of hydration, skin thickness, the presence of fine lines, loss of elasticity, skin texture, areas of fragility.
The best Skinbooster is therefore not necessarily the most concentrated one, but the one whose formulation precisely matches the skin’s needs.
When the main objective is hydration, hyaluronic acid-based Skinboosters are often preferred. They help improve the skin’s ability to retain water and gradually achieve a fresher appearance.
This type of treatment is particularly suitable for patients who notice a feeling of tight skin, a dull complexion, a lack of radiance, fine lines related to dehydration.
The areas frequently treated are the face, neck, décolleté and sometimes the back of the hands, where the skin is particularly exposed to ageing.
Over time, the decrease in the amount of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid makes the skin thinner and marked by small fine lines.
In this situation, a Skinbooster with a more stimulating action may be indicated. Some products combine hydration and progressive improvement of dermal quality.
They are particularly interesting for areas where the skin is thin : the cheeks, perioral fine lines, the neck, the décolleté.
In patients mainly looking for a more radiant complexion, the choice is often oriented towards Skinboosters designed to improve the evenness and freshness of the skin.
These treatments are suitable when the skin appears tired despite a good cosmetic routine because skincare products applied on the surface can improve the skin barrier, but they do not always act sufficiently deeply on dermal hydration.
The Skinbooster acts as a treatment to improve skin quality : it gradually improves the overall appearance of the skin without giving the impression that an aesthetic procedure has been performed.
La différence principale réside dans l’objectif du traitement.
L’acide hyaluronique volumateur est utilisé pour restaurer ou modifier certains volumes du visage, par exemple au niveau des pommettes, du menton ou des lèvres selon les indications.
Le Skinbooster, lui, agit sur la qualité cutanée. Il ne change pas la forme du visage et n’apporte pas de volume.
Le choix entre les deux dépend donc de l’analyse médicale : une perte de volume nécessite plutôt une correction structurelle ; une peau déshydratée ou moins lumineuse nécessite plutôt une amélioration de la qualité cutanée.
Dans certains cas, les deux approches peuvent être complémentaires pour obtenir un résultat harmonieux.
Le meilleur Skinbooster est celui qui répond précisément au besoin de la peau. Un produit qui donne des bons résulats chez une personne peut être moins adapté chez une autre.
Le choix repose sur une analyse complète :
• Qualité de la peau.
• Objectifs du patient.
• Antécédents médicaux.
• Zones à traiter.
• Degré de vieillissement cutané.
La réussite du traitement dépend autant du choix du produit que de la technique d’injection, de la profondeur choisie et de l’expérience du médecin.
