June is the month when skin begins to face its first serious sun exposure. It is also the last opportunity to properly prepare it, before heat and UV radiation leave their mark.
What are skin boosters?
Skin boosters are injectable low-viscosity hyaluronic acid products administered intradermally, directly into the skin. Unlike fillers that add volume, skin boosters target skin quality improvement: hydration, elasticity, radiance, and texture.
The result is not a “puffy” face, it is skin that looks healthy, rested, and youthful.
How do skin boosters work?
Hyaluronic acid is a natural skin component that diminishes with age, sun exposure, and stress. When administered intradermally in small quantities (microdroplets), it activates fibroblasts, binds moisture, and stimulates collagen production.
Results include:
- Deep hydration lasting up to 6 months
- Improved elasticity and skin texture
- Reduction of fine lines and dullness
- Even skin tone and luminosity
Why is June the ideal time?
June is the best month for skin boosters for the following reason:
Preparation before sun exposure: Skin needs 2-3 weeks to show satisfactory results. Getting the treatment now means starting your holidays with your skin at its very best.
Which areas can be treated?
Skin boosters are applied to:
- Face: forehead, cheeks, jawline
- Neck and décolleté: ideal for summer appearance
- Hands: anti-aging treatment that is often overlooked
- Periorbital area: fine lines around the eyes
Who are they suitable for?
Skin boosters are suitable for all ages. Ideal for:
- Dehydrated or dull skin
- Early expression lines (30-40 years)
- Mature skin requiring collagen stimulation
- Skin with sun damage from previous summers
What to expect from the treatment?
The treatment takes place in the clinic in just a few minutes. A topical anesthetic cream is applied before the procedure begins. Afterwards, mild redness or small red marks at the needle entry points may appear, which resolve within 24-48 hours. For optimal results, 2-3 sessions at 3-4 week intervals are recommended, with maintenance every 6 months.
