Overview
Skin boosters are injectable products distributed in many small deposits across an area of skin. Unlike fillers they are not designed to reshape; they aim to improve the quality of the skin over a course of sessions.
The number of sessions and the interval between them depend on the product and your skin, and are agreed at the consultation.
