Skin Boosters
Skin boosters are injectable treatments that deliver hyaluronic acid and nourishing ingredients deep into the skin to improve hydration, radiance and quality, rather than adding volume or changing shape.
The short answer
What this treatment is
Skin boosters hydrate and revitalise the skin from within. Unlike dermal fillers, which restore volume and contour, boosters spread through the skin to improve hydration, elasticity and that healthy, well-rested glow. At Perfectus Derma in Soho, our nurses use a wide range of skin boosters, including Jalupro, Stylage Hydro and Stylage HydroMax, alongside Profhilo and our newest addition, Baby Glow. Baby Glow combines hyaluronic acid, amino acids, antioxidants and vitamins to support hydration, radiance and overall skin health. Which booster suits you depends on your skin, your concerns and your goals, so every treatment begins with a face-to-face consultation and assessment. Most people have a short course, then top up through the year to keep their skin looking fresh.

Patient journey
What to expect
Consultation & preparation
Avoid ibuprofen, aspirin, fish oil, vitamin E and alcohol for 24 to 48 hours before treatment to reduce bruising. Arrive with clean, make-up-free skin. Let your nurse know about any allergies or recent injectable treatments at your consultation.
During treatment
Aftercare
Small bumps and redness usually settle within 24 to 48 hours. Avoid make-up, strenuous exercise, saunas and harsh skincare for the rest of the day, and keep the skin hydrated and protected with SPF. Book any further sessions in your course as recommended.

FAQ
Common
questions
What is the difference between skin boosters and dermal fillers?
Both use hyaluronic acid, but they work differently. Dermal fillers add volume and shape, such as fuller cheeks or a sharper jawline. Skin boosters spread through the skin to improve hydration, elasticity and glow, without changing your contours. Many people combine the two, and your nurse advises which suits your goals.
What is Baby Glow?
Baby Glow is our newest skin booster, designed to improve hydration, radiance and overall skin health. It combines hyaluronic acid, amino acids, antioxidants and vitamins in one treatment to leave the skin looking fresh and healthy. As with all our boosters, your nurse confirms it suits your skin at your consultation.
How many sessions of skin boosters do I need?
Most boosters work best as a short course, often two or three sessions spaced a few weeks apart, followed by top-ups through the year. The exact plan depends on the booster chosen and your skin. Your nurse sets out the recommended course at your consultation so you know what to expect.
Is there any downtime with skin boosters?
Downtime is minimal. You may notice small raised bumps at the injection points and some redness, which usually settle within a day or two. Numbing cream keeps the treatment comfortable. Avoid make-up, heavy exercise and harsh skincare for the rest of the day, and protect your skin with SPF afterwards.
