Skin Boosters appears to be the latest craze in Singapore, providing quick and instant radiance to the skin, pore closure and a healthy glow for the Korean Dewy skin texture and skin tone.
Skin Boosters are made up of a combination of Hyaluronic Acid. As the skin undergoes sun damage and ageing, it loses moisture and collagen. Hyaluronic Acid is a naturally occurring compound that can now be directly injected into the dermal layers of the skin, delivering hydration to exactly where it is needed. Unlike creams or serums that contain hyaluronic acid, the absorption of this serum into the deeper layers of the skin is limited.
Skin Boosters can be injected deep into the skin through micro-injections with a delivery gun, allowing precise and accurate micro-partials to be injected evenly throughout the entire face
Skin Boosters are suitable for those who have
1) Dry dehydrated skin
2) Oily skin with big open pores
3) Dull skin
4) Aged skin
5) Sun damaged skin with a combination of the above
Results from the Skin Boosters injection depends on the type of product used and the scheduling technique of your doctor. Some clinics recommend once a month for the first 3 injections followed by a 6 monthly. Others recommend doing it once every 2-3 months.
Restylane Skin Boosters is my product of choice. Although there are many alternative names like AquaShine, Dewdrops, Aqua Boosters, Aqua Shine etc, Only Licenced Medical Clinics are allowed to use Restylane Products. You do not want third party products injected into your skin as you are not sure of firstly the manufacturing process, the sterility of the product and the purity of its claims.
Skin Boosters can be used in both men and women across all age groups. A lot of the times, it is done before a special event like Weddings, ROMs, parties, gatherings etc. However, skin is something that requires continuous care. Although the skin boosters are able to make the skin radiant before your all important event, the process of injecting Skin Boosters into the skin also helps to stimulate our own body to produce collagen, allowing for long term benefits beyond the lifespan of the product which is technically up to 9 months maximum.
Common FAQ
A) How is the procedure done?
1) Numbing cream is first applied onto the face and the cream is left on for about 30 mins
2) You will be brought into the treatment room where you will lie down and the cream is then cleaned off
3) The face should feel numb now and your doctor will use a gun to deliver the product into your skin. The gun used in my clinic has 5 micro-injectors where exactly 0.01ml per injector is delivered precisely into the dermal layers of your skin
4) The process is repeated throughout the entire face, focusing more on the problem areas like the cheeks
5) Lastly, the face will be cleaned after the process is done and some antibiotic cream will be applied on
6) Down time is about 2 days. Some elevated bumps on the first and these gradually will subside on the second day
B) Is there anything else apart for Restylane being injected?
Very often we use a combination of Botox and Restylane in the mixture. There are some clinics that use Vitamin C as well as PDRN (婴儿针) in their mixture. Although this has been postulated to improve wound healing and has been used in the treatment of diabetic foot ulters, it's use in North America and Europe is currently still not widespread. There have been Korean Clinics starting to use this product but while it is still new and undergoing clinical trials, I would advise against using it in the face for now until more literature is released.
C) How fast can I see results?
You can see results from the injection within a week
D) Is it painful?There is some discomfort from the procedure, but the numbing cream makes the procedure much more bearable.
E) Any examples of how my skin will look after the injection?http://www.paperkitties.com/2016/12/my-very-first-skin-booster-at-clifford.html
