Skin boosters are injections of a thin hyaluronic acid and amino acid gel into the skin, to hydrate it and stimulate the production of collagen. They can be a good alternative for those who prefer a more subtle look in comparison to anti-wrinkle injections.
We offer two types of Skin Booster, Profhilo® and Jalupro®.
Profhilo® contains only 64mg of hyaluronic acid, making it an effective injectable for deep hydration and skin rejuvenation. Jalupro® Super Hydro has a powerful cocktail of nourishing, skin-loving ingredients, including three peptides, 80mg of HA and seven amino acids such as Glycine, Proline, Lysine and Valine.
Jalupro®’s potent HA formula provides a deeper hydration experience, making it an effective product for more severe wrinkling than Profhilo®.
Your practitioner will consider your needs and the effectiveness and safety of their chosen product. Whether it’s down to affordability or results, Profhilo® and Jalupro® are both are excellent Skin Boosters.
