Skin Boosters

About the service

Skin boosters are designed to rejuvenate the quality of skin and revitalise the early signs of sun damage. It can often help improve dehydrated skin, loss of elasticity and firmness, presence of superficial lines and uneven pigmentation and texture.

At Re-Vive we use injectable skin boosters containing hyaluronic acid and glycerol, which creates a lasting moisturising effect, as it promotes water absorption within the skin, resulting in increased hydration, smoothness, elasticity and firmness.

The effects last between 6-9 months but factors to consider are the structure of your skin, lifestyle and age.

The booster is injected under a treatment regimen of 1 to 3 injection sessions depending on your needs. We advise you book a follow up appointment no less than 4 weeks after your first treatment to assess the initial outcome and continue with your treatment plan. Your skin rejuvenation treatment starts to work immediately, hydrating your skin.

What's the difference between skin boosters and dermal filler?

The main difference is the level of lift and longevity. Skin boosters add hydration and glow whilst dermal fillers add volume and soften lines. Both offer a more youthful appearance in slightly different ways.

Dermal fillers can last 12-18 months whilst injectable skin boosters will last 6-9 months and needs more regular maintenance.
