Skin Boosters
What are Skin Boosters?
Skin boosters are an injectable treatment that is designed to deliver deep skin hydration. Most of the time, they promote a natural glow and radiance.
This relatively new treatment concept has become a lot more popular over the past few years. It particularly appeals to patients who want to look fresh and natural with their anti-ageing treatments.
Skin booster results don’t have the dramatic impact that can be associated with the better known non-surgical treatments. They don’t “freeze” the features or stop muscle movement (like BOTOX® can), although they can help to smooth out lines and wrinkles. They won’t deliver exaggerated or over-inflated results like dermal fillers can, although they can add more subtle volume by gently plumping the skin.
Thread Lift

Types of Thread Lift
There are a few types of thread lifts, the main difference is longevity, stiffness and tensile strength:
- PDO (Polydioxanone) dissolves after 6 – 9 months
- PLLA (Poly L Lactic Acid) dissolves after 12 – 18 months
- PCL (Polycaprolactone) dissolves after 24 – 36 months
Considerations
Although thread lifts are advantageous, patients must maintain a realistic expectation for this procedure. While thread lifts can certainly produce visible changes, they will only be able to lift the face by a few millimeters, as such they create a more subtle and natural look than facelift surgery. Thread lifts are more suitable for mild to moderate cases of skin laxity. Once thread lifts are no longer feasible, patients may have to consider facelift surgery.
The patient needs to understand that no lifting technique is permanent, that being said a facelift surgery will produce longer-lasting results than a thread lift. Facelift surgery can last up to a decade whereas a thread lift generally lasts between one to three years.

Maintenance
To get the most out of the treatment, patients can combine thread lift with Exilis, Thermage or Ultherapy. These lasers use heat to stimulate collagen production. By combining these procedures with thread lift you can maximize the overall effect of skin firming and create even more lifting to the neck as well as the face.
While thread lifts can tighten skin, they aren’t designed to address the blemishes of the skin’s surface. As such signs of aging such as age spots, areas of uneven pigmentation and fine lines will require a different technique known as skin resurfacing. During skin resurfacing the top layer of the dermis is removed, stripping away the blemishes. A new more youthful-looking layer of the skin then grows in its place. You can do this through other lasers or fillers. It would be best to consult with the doctor on what works best for your condition.
Skin Boosters
Profhilo is an injectable skin remodelling treatment that is used for its subtle but immediate hydrating and skin tightening results. The product has won multiple aesthetics awards and is loved by beauty editors and celebrity facialists the world over due to its almost-instant and long-lasting results.
Profhilo® is a revolutionary ‘beneath the skin’ hyaluronic acid moisturising treatment, made with the patented NAHYCO® technology. This results in a unique hyaluronic acid injectable gel, which has a prolonged stimulating activity on the dermal cells. When injected into skin, Profhilo® stimulates the skin cell receptors to counteract skin laxity and improve and restore firmness of the skin.
One of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market, Profhilo® not only boosts and hydrates the skin, but also remodels ageing and sagging tissue. The most common areas of treatment include the face and neck and can also be used for the décolletage, hands, arms, knees and abdomen area where it would effectively treat skin laxity. The treatment is suitable for men and women as well as offering skin benefits for patients of all ages.
Juvéderm® VOLITE is a minimally invasive injectable treatment that delivers hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring substance in the skin, directly into the dermis layer. HA attracts water to hydrate skin, improves elasticity and reduce fine lines.
Plinest® is a skin regeneration and rejuvenation treatment that uses pure and high-quality polynucleotide (PN) gel to repair your skin and keep it healthy and glowing.
Plinest pioneered the use of polynucleotide (PN) gel, which was then used in Rejuran and other PN or PDRN gel treatments that have recently saturated the market.
Because of its biochemical, hydrating, and viscoelastic properties, Plinest enhances skin elasticity. Plinest can also improve fibrous tissue regions like scars and stretch marks, making it the innovative game-changer in scar and stretch mark treatment.
Plinest, known in the aesthetic market as the Ferrari of regeneration gels, is made from DNA fragments collected from Italian Trout Fish using Mastelli’s HPT technology, devised and developed in Italy.
A natural physiological procedure stimulates dermal bio-revitalization and collagen repair, enhancing skin quality from within. Plinest treatment can reportedly give you better skin brightness, improved skin texture, and enhanced skin elasticity, giving you a healthier and more radiant appearance.
It is ideal for treating dry skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines on your face, and reversing the signs of skin aging.
