About the treatment

What are skin boosters?

Skin boosters are injectable treatments placed in small amounts just under the surface of the skin on the face or neck. Depending on the product, they may contain hyaluronic acid, polynucleotides or collagen-stimulating ingredients, and are chosen to support hydration, texture and overall skin quality.

Polynucleotide skin boosters have become widely discussed in recent years. At your consultation, Debbie will explain which products may suit your skin, what they contain, how many sessions are usually involved and what a realistic outcome looks like for you.

Skin boosters are not a substitute for a good home skincare routine and daily sun protection, and results vary from person to person. They are available at our Rhodes clinic in the Inner West and our Castle Hill clinic in the Hills District.
