The entire skinbooster injections treatment will take approximately 10 – 20 minutes depending on the treated area.

The process uses micro-injections. These are shallow and performed with a very fine needle. Topical numbing cream will be applied on the skin prior to the treatment to minimize discomfort.

A traditional course of skinbooster treatment necessitates 3 consecutive monthly treatments followed by a maintenance skin booster treatment every 6 months. With newer skin booster treatments, results can last up to 9 months with just a single treatment.

Skinbooster treatment is suitable for everyone, regardless of skin type, or if the patient is young or mature. They can improve overall skin quality, deep skin hydration, improved skin elasticity, reducing fine lines and improving the smoothness of the skin texture — thus achieving the appearance of youthful skin.

The best advice we can give to each one of you considering skin boosters is to speak to your doctor about the concerns you may have, and what you had intended to achieve by coming for treatment. An open understanding between the patients and ourselves is what brings out the best in every treatment, since each and every person has different types of skin, skin condition and expectations. As such, the procedure for each person will need to be planned and tailored accordingly for the best results.

Based on doctor's experience, using the injector device, downtime experienced is usually about 3 days since there are more injection sites from the device. The force of the injection is also higher when using the device and the risk of injection related side effects such as bruising is increased.

With care and experience, a doctor using the manual injection method can reduce the number of injection points needed while attaining a similar effect with good planning. Skill in handling the injections will minimize the risk of injection related side effects and the manual method expects only a maximum downtime of 2 days.

Occasionally, bruising in the top layers of skin may occur, and the symptoms can be alleviated with an anti-bruising pill medication to help blood vessels in the skin heal.
