The Skinbooster is an injectable hyaluronic acid designed to improve skin quality without altering facial volumes. It deeply hydrates the skin, improves cutaneous elasticity, and reduces fine lines, with a natural and progressive result.
In Geneva, Skinbooster is used for dehydrated, dull skin or skin marked by the first signs of aging. This treatment is intended for patients who wish to regain brighter, more supple, and more even skin, without any volumizing effect.
Key data about Skinboosters
Data from clinical studies on Skinboosters
Skinbooster is based on the injection of a lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid, specifically formulated to restore deep skin hydration while preserving the natural harmony of the face, without any volumizing effect.
This aesthetic-oriented medicine treatment fully fits within a preventive approach to skin aging. By sustainably improving the quality, suppleness, and radiance of the skin, it helps slow down the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Le Skinbooster rend le teint lumineux sans de donner de volume, cela est possible grâce à son ingrédient actif, l’acide hyaluronique.
Where are Skinboosters injected ? Different parts of the body can be treated. It is possible to perform Skinbooster injections on :
This aesthetic medicine treatment is particularly suited to hydrate the skin and strengthen its structure without surgery. It is less invasive than a facelift, peel, or laser and has shown excellent results.
Before anything else, an initial consultation is scheduled at Doctor Valeria Romano’s clinic in Geneva. Attentive to your needs, the doctor defines your goals with you and reviews your expectations.
This first appointment is an opportunity to determine the appropriate injection protocol.
Concretely, this aesthetic-oriented medicine treatment is performed on clean and disinfected skin. Doctor Romano then proceeds with the injection :
There are two types of Skinbooster : less and more concentrated in hyaluronic acid. Doctor Romano uses exclusively the one more concentrated in hyaluronic acid.
Before undergoing a Skinbooster treatment, certain precautions are recommended in order to limit temporary side effects, particularly bruising or inflammatory reactions.
It is generally advised to avoid, in the days preceding the session, taking aspirin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (after approval from the prescribing physician), as well as certain dietary supplements with blood-thinning effects, such as omega-3 or vitamin E.
It is also preferable not to expose the skin to intense sunlight or to irritating skin treatments such as a peel or laser procedure in the days preceding the injection.
Finally, it is essential to inform the physician of any ongoing treatment, medical history, allergy, or active skin infection, in order to ensure the absence of contraindications and to adapt the treatment plan in a personalized manner.
The injection protocol depends on the skin type.
The protocol includes an initial phase of 2 to 3 sessions, performed at intervals of 3 to 4 weeks.
Subsequently, maintenance sessions are recommended every 6 to 12 months, depending on skin quality, the patient’s age, and the desired aesthetic goals.
Skinbooster is a very lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid. The contraindications are the same as for classic hyaluronic acid injections.
Did you know that hyaluronic acid is a substance naturally present in the body ? This explains why this product is so well tolerated by the organism. Side effects following an injection remain rare. When they do occur, they are limited in time and of low intensity. They are identical to those that may be observed with classic hyaluronic acid injections.
As with any aesthetic-oriented treatment, Skinbooster injections can indeed cause certain side effects, but no social downtime is required.
This anti-aging treatment is very effective for filling wrinkles and fine lines. Thanks to deep hydration, the signs of aging are visibly reduced.
Among the treatments and methods available on the market, Skinboosters are increasingly in demand.
The result is immediate and improves in the three weeks following the treatment. Its duration varies between six and twelve months.
The skin is plumped without added volume, and its density is visibly improved.
The face (or other treated area) is more radiant and appears younger, and small fine lines are softened.
A study published in the Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy showed that patients treated with Skinboosters observed a significant improvement in skin hydration and firmness and a reduction of fine lines.
The results of a Skinbooster treatment begin to be visible after a few days, with the final results obtained three weeks later.
The improvement in skin hydration and radiance is visible 3 to 7 days after the injection. The skin is more radiant and more plump from the first week.
The final results, particularly the improvement in skin density, the reduction of fine lines and the increase in skin elasticity, are visible 2 to 4 weeks after the session. This period is necessary for the hyaluronic acid to fully integrate into the skin and activate collagen production.
Certain factors influence the speed of the results.
At every stage of life, the skin undergoes changes. Sensitive, babies’ skin is naturally soft and supple. Don’t we speak of “baby skin” to describe beautiful, touchably smooth skin ? During adolescence, acne outbreaks can damage the facial skin and leave lasting marks (depressions…). Later, with aging, skin cells regenerate more slowly, which leads to a loss of elasticity and suppleness. Fatigue and stress have a harmful impact on the skin, as they intensify this phenomenon. Consequence : the skin becomes dull and wrinkles and fine lines settle in.
To combat the effects of aging and help the skin regain a youthful appearance, various medical techniques have been developed. The ultimate solution to rejuvenate facial skin and tighten its features is Skinbooster hyaluronic acid. Used since the 1990s in aesthetic-oriented medicine, this product – naturally present in the body – has proven its effectiveness as an anti-aging procedure by giving the skin a radiant complexion.
Skinboosters consist of fine particles of very lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid. Concretely, the composition of these molecules gives them a long duration of action. These unique market substances act as regenerators, providing a true “youth boost” on tired skin. The effects of the injections are long-lasting.
Once injected into the mid-dermis, this product integrates into the tissues and plays the same role as the endogenous water initially contained in the skin, rehydrating it deeply.
Skinbooster technique: and the price? For a session of Skinbooster : le prix se fixe à combien ? À Genève, le tarif d’une injection de Skinbooster est de 400 CHF la seringue. Le nombre de seringues nécessaires dépendra de l’étendue de la zone traitée et du protocole retenu. En général, un plan de traitement initial inclut plusieurs séances espacées de quelques semaines, suivi d’une phase d’entretien plus espacée dans le temps.
À Genève, les injections de Skinbooster sont réalisées par des médecins formés, avec des produits certifiés. Le prix reflète donc non seulement la qualité d’acide hyaluronique utilisé, mais aussi la technicité de l’injection et la rigueur du suivi médical personnalisé.
The choice of Skinbooster depends on several factors, including the type of skin, the patient’s aesthetic goals and the area to be treated.
Treatment goal
Treatment area
Skin type and specific concerns
Duration of the results
Skinbooster injections can be considered at different ages.
Everything depends on the specific needs of the skin rather than on age.
There is no minimum age to start Skinbooster injections, but the approach must always be personalized according to the condition of the skin and the aesthetic goals of each patient. A prior consultation with an experienced physician is essential to determine the ideal time to begin this treatment.
FROM AGE 25–30 : PREVENTION AND MAINTENANCE
The objective is to prevent the first signs of aging and maintain optimal skin hydration.
At this age, the natural production of collagen and hyaluronic acid begins to slow down. Skinboosters preserve the skin’s youthfulness, enhance its radiance and prevent the appearance of the first fine lines.
FROM AGE 30–40 : CORRECTING THE FIRST SIGNS OF SKIN AGEING
The objective is to correct the first visible signs of skin aging, such as the loss of elasticity and the appearance of fine lines.
Skinboosters restore lost hydration, improve skin quality and provide a slight lifting effect.
FROM AGE 40 AND BEYOND : OVERALL REJUVENATION
The objective is to treat deeper wrinkles, volume loss and loss of skin elasticity.
At this age, the skin often needs stronger stimulation to regain its radiance and firmness. Skinboosters can be used in combination with other aesthetic-oriented treatments for global and natural facial rejuvenation.
The mesotherapy is an injection technique using vitamins, minerals and non cross-linked hyaluronic acid, meaning that it is not protected from physiological degradation by a stabilization process called cross-linking.
The result is light and temporary. The radiance boost is real, but several sessions are needed to maintain it.
The Skinbooster is a lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid. The result lasts longer, between six and twelve months, and the skin becomes firmer and more toned without added volume.
The two treatments can be combined, and this synergistic association is actually recommended.
It is advised to perform once or twice a year a Skinbooster session and mesotherapy on the same day.
Skinboosters and botulinum toxin address different needs and are often used in a complementary way. Skinboosters hydrate and improve skin quality, while botulinum toxin treats certain dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle movements. By relaxing the muscles, it prevents the formation of new wrinkles.
If the main goal is to reduce forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet and frown lines, botulinum toxin is more suitable. If the goal is to improve the quality, hydration and radiance of the skin, Skinboosters are the treatment of choice.
Skinboosters vs fillers : which is the best option ?
The main goal of Skinboosters is to revitalize and hydrate the skin without adding volume. They soften fine lines and early skin creases.
Fillers, such as classic hyaluronic acid, are used to add volume, reshape the face, fill deep wrinkles and folds, and correct asymmetries. They are injected deeper into the skin or into the subcutaneous tissue.
The results of Skinboosters generally last several months, often between six and twelve months, depending on the type of product and the area treated.
The results of fillers can last between six months and two years, depending on the product used, the injected area and individual metabolism.
Combined approach : for optimal results, a combination of Skinboosters and fillers can be used to treat both skin quality and volumetric and structural needs. This approach makes it possible to achieve overall and more harmonious rejuvenation.
Skinboosters are ideal for patients who are looking for a rapid improvement in skin hydration, quality and elasticity.
Perfect for people wishing to restore radiance and suppleness to their skin with quickly visible effects.
This method visibly improves wrinkles and fine lines.
Profhilo is stabilized hyaluronic acid, designed not only to hydrate but also to reshape and firm the skin. It acts as a biorevitalizing agent, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin and thus improving the overall quality of the skin.
Combined approach : in some cases, a combination of Skinboosters and Profhilo may be considered to maximize the benefits of both procedures.
Although both treatments have different advantages, the choice between Skinboosters and Profhilo will depend on the aesthetic goals and the physician’s recommendations.
If skin laxity and looseness are the main concerns, Profhilo is the ideal treatment. Its bio-remodeling properties provide a lifting effect and improve the overall quality of the skin.
If hydration and skin nourishment are the main objectives, Skinboosters are the best option.
Skinboosters deeply hydrate the skin and improve its radiance, but other aesthetic-oriented treatments can deliver similar results.
Expert opinions
Doctors confirm the benefits of Skinboosters. They often recommend them for their ability to deeply hydrate the skin and revitalize it, making it younger and more radiant.
Patient testimonials

Combining Skinboosters with other procedures is a common practice to maximize results and address multiple aesthetic needs in a single session.
For example, it is common to combine Skinboosters with :

During the two days following the session, it is recommended to avoid products that contain fruit acids, retinol (Vitamin A) and Vitamin C.
It is also necessary to avoid any intense physical exercise for 24 hours and any exposure to intense heat for 3 days.
Skinbooster injections are well tolerated. A tingling sensation or slight discomfort may be felt. The injection is very rapid.
The skinbooster should be performed as soon as the first signs of skin aging appear. What is the ideal age for a skin booster treatment ? Around the thirties.
For the season, it is recommended to have an injection before being exposed to intense heat to protect the skin, and after returning from vacation to rehydrate the skin.
If the injection protocol is complete, the results will last between ten and twelve months.
A complete Skinbooster treatment protocol requires two sessions spaced two months apart. This protocol has been designed to achieve optimal results.
Subsequently, maintenance sessions are recommended once or twice a year depending on the type of skin and the patient’s age.
Skinbooster is a particularly suitable solution for dry, dehydrated, or skin altered by skin aging. It helps sustainably restore deep skin hydration while improving suppleness, elasticity, and overall skin quality.
This treatment also helps reduce fine lines related to dehydration.
Skinbooster may be considered for patients with sensitive, reactive, or redness-prone skin. The treatment approach must then be personalized, both in the choice of product and in the injection technique used, in order to respect skin fragility and limit inflammatory reactions.
Skinboosters are suitable for the majority of skin types and can be recommended for both young and mature skin. This treatment is particularly indicated in cases of skin dehydration, loss of radiance, altered skin texture, or the appearance of the first signs of aging.
However, the indication and protocol must be adapted to each patient following a personalized medical evaluation.
Skinbooster treatment does not require stopping daily or professional activities. The aftereffects are mild and temporary.
Skinbooster fits perfectly into a comprehensive approach to skin quality and can be combined with different aesthetic-oriented medicine treatments in order to optimize results.
It may notably be combined with :
The combination of techniques must nevertheless be adapted to each patient’s needs and carried out according to a personalized medical protocol.
The treatment of dark circles with hyaluronic acid requires a very specific injection technique. In the orbital region, the product must be placed deeply, in contact with the bone. Skinbooster is a lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid intended to be injected superficially, directly into the dermis, in order to improve hydration and skin quality. Due to its injection method and indications, it is therefore not a suitable treatment for dark circles.
Slight swelling may occur after skinbooster injections, but this is temporary and generally disappears within a few hours to a few days.
Yes, improving skin radiance is one of the main indications for Skinbooster. Thanks to its deep hydrating action, this treatment helps restore the skin’s natural luminosity and reduce the dull or tired appearance of the complexion.
Skinbooster also acts on the overall quality of the skin by improving its texture, suppleness, and level of hydration. The skin therefore appears smoother, more even, and visibly revitalized.
To improve the appearance of the skin, Skinbooster injections, hyaluronic acid designed for the skin, are very effective. They deeply hydrate, smooth fine lines and enhance the quality and radiance of the skin.
Botulinum toxin injections, hyaluronic acid injections and Skinbooser injections are the techniques most commonly used to rejuvenate the face.
It is important to hydrate the skin regularly, to use anti-aging skincare rich in antioxidants, to apply sunscreen daily and to maintain a balanced diet. Medical treatments such as Skinboosters and laser sessions are very effective in improving skin quality.
Skinboosters and Sculptra are treatments to improve the quality and elasticity of the skin.
Treatments such as chemical peels, Skinboosters, ablative laser and Sculptra are effective for skin densification.
Dry skin tends to age more quickly due to its lack of natural hydration, which makes it more prone to wrinkles and fine lines. Fair and thin skin shows signs of aging more rapidly.
Geranium essential oil is known for its firming properties. It helps tone the skin, improve elasticity and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Vitamins C, A (retinol) and E.
Dietary supplements containing collagen, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants (such as Vitamin C and E), and omega-3 fatty acids are effective for fighting wrinkles and improving skin quality.
Sudden aging can be due to several factors, including stress, hormonal changes, poor diet, excessive sun exposure, smoking or dehydration.
Women who adopt a healthy lifestyle - a balanced diet, adequate hydration, sun protection, no smoking and an appropriate skincare routine - generally age better. Genetics also play an important role.
Thin, angular faces age more quickly. Rounder or oval faces retain a more youthful appearance for longer because there is more fat.
