About The Treatment

What is a fast-acting skin booster?

A fast-acting skin booster is an injectable hyaluronic acid treatment that quickly boosts skin hydration and radiance. Rather than replacing volume or changing your face shape, it works within the skin to improve how it looks, so your complexion appears fresher, smoother, plumper, and brighter. Think of it as an intensive injectable hydration treatment. It’s for quick, short-term refreshment rather than long-term collagen stimulation.

How does it work?

The treatment delivers hyaluronic acid directly into the skin, giving it moisture beyond what topical skincare can reach. Better-hydrated skin looks smoother, plumper, and more reflective, creating the fresh, dewy look we associate with healthy skin. Its strength is speed, so if you want a quick improvement in hydration and glow without committing to a longer programme, this may be the right choice.

What can it improve, and is it right for me?

It suits people who are generally happy with their face but feel their skin needs a boost. It is commonly used to refresh:

  • Dull, tired-looking skin
  • Dehydrated or dry-looking skin
  • Fine dehydration lines
  • Uneven-looking texture
  • Skin that looks tired after travelling
  • Skin you want to prepare before an occasion

It is also a good first step into injectable skin treatments. If your main concern is significant laxity, ageing or long-term skin quality, Dr Cat may recommend a regenerative treatment instead.

How the fast-acting skin booster compares

Fast-acting skin booster vs Profhilo

Both improve skin quality but have different jobs. The fast-acting skin booster gives a quick hydration and glow boost, with results that develop rapidly but are relatively short-lived, often from a single treatment. Profhilo is a longer-term skin remodelling treatment that hydrates while stimulating collagen and elastin over a recommended course. Choose the booster for quick results before an event, and Profhilo for lasting change.

Fast-acting skin booster vs our regenerative treatments

Polynucleotides and Radiesse are designed to stimulate longer-term change in the skin, so they take weeks or several sessions to show their full effect. The fast-acting skin booster is the opposite: quick refreshment now. Dr Cat will explain the differences and help you choose.

FAQS

Your Fast-Acting Skin Booster Questions Answered

Everything you need to know about Fast-Acting Skin Booster at Teeth & Face. Can't find your answer? Get in touch, and we'll be happy to help.

How much does a fast-acting skin booster cost?

Pricing is on our fee list. The exact cost depends on your skin and what you need, which Dr Cat will confirm at your complimentary consultation, with no obligation to go ahead.

How long does a skin booster last?

It is a short-term treatment by design, so the glow and hydration usually last a few weeks rather than months. If you want longer-lasting results, Profhilo, polynucleotides or Radiesse may suit you better.

How long before an event should I have a skin booster?

Around a week beforehand, not the day before, so any redness or small marks have time to settle. For a first treatment or something as important as a wedding, plan further ahead and Dr Cat will advise on timing.

Does a skin booster hurt?

It involves a few small injections, so you may feel brief pinching or stinging. Most people find it very manageable, and it is over quickly.

Who is not suitable for a skin booster?

Treatment may not be suitable if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have an active skin infection or certain medical conditions. Dr Cat will review your medical history first.
