Deep hydration · MorpethRestylane Skin Boosters in Morpeth, Northumberland

Hydration from the inside

Skin boosters use NASHA stabilised hyaluronic acid, delivered as many small deposits across an area rather than as a single bolus. The product holds water in the dermis, improving suppleness, fine lines and that dull, dehydrated look that no amount of moisturiser fixes.

It is a quality treatment rather than a shape one. Skin looks fresher and reflects light better; the structure of the face is unchanged.

Who it suits

People with dehydrated or dull skin, fine crepey lines, and anyone who wants an improvement with nothing visible to anyone else. It works well on the face, neck, décolletage and hands, and it sits comfortably alongside laser, peels or microneedling in a longer plan.

Course and maintenance

Three sessions spaced four weeks apart builds the result; the course price of £500 saves against three singles. Most clients then maintain with one or two sessions a year.

Skin booster or Profhilo?

Profhilo spreads widely from a few points and does more for laxity. Skin boosters are placed across the area and do more for hydration and fine texture. Neither adds volume. At consultation we will tell you which your skin is actually asking for.

Afterwards

Small raised bumps at the injection points settle within a day. Expect mild redness, occasional pinpoint bruising, and no real downtime beyond that.
