For radiant, hydrated skin, ask for Restylane® Skinboosters™
When we feel good about our skin, we feel good about ourselves, but over time our skin can lose its natural radiance.¹ Now it is possible to boost your skin from within. Restylane Skinboosters infuses a thin layer of micro droplets of hyaluronic acid beneath the skin surface, where it draws water and provides long-term deep hydration. You will get a refreshed and radiant look that lasts.
Why Restylane Skinboosters?
Hyaluronic acid is a natural component of your skin that keeps it hydrated and soft. With age, or due to a harsh environment, the hyaluronic acid content in your skin may decrease, and your skin may lose some of its elasticity and hydration.
Restylane Skinboosters restores the natural composition of your skin. It boosts skin elasticity2 and you will notice a reduction of skin roughness3. Your skin becomes smooth and hydrated for a refreshed and healthy look.

Your treatment
Restylane Skinboosters gradually builds up your skin’s hydration and smoothness. A typical treatment program starts with 3 treatment sessions, 2-4 weeks apart. You will notice an improvement already after the first session, but the full effect will be visible after the last session. After these initial treatments, a maintenance treatment is typically recommended every 4-6 months to ensure lasting results.
How it works
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance that has a unique ability to bind water. It keeps your body tissues soft, hydrated and flexible.
Natural hyaluronic acid in the body quickly forms and degrades (in 24-48 hours). To make the hyaluronic acid in Restylane Skinboosters last longer, for several months or even a year5, degradation is delayed by cross-linking the hyaluronic acid molecules.6 This way, Restylane Skinboosters will form small “reservoirs” of moisture beneath the skin surface that will give you long-lasting hydration and radiance.

Depending on the area, a treatment takes approximately 15-45 minutes. To achieve optimal results, a treatment program usually starts with 2-3 treatment sessions, 2-4 weeks apart. Thereafter, maintenance treatments are recommended every 6-12 months.
Is the treatment painful?

Do I need maintenance treatments?
