Skin Booster/Remodeller
Over the past few years there has been an explosion of skin boosters coming to market. In essence skin boosters are micro injections of hyaluronic acid, and in some cases amino acids, vitamins and minerals (also known as mesotherapy).
Skin Booster/Remodeller
All skin boosters/remodellers aim to encourage the body to make collagen and therefore firm and hydrate the skin. There are many types of collagens and not all skin boosters can stimulate you to make them all which is why its important to discuss the concerns with me so we can choose the best one for you.
Bio Remodelling: Profhilo
Profhilo is the innovative treatment utilising injectable hyaluronic acid. It’s formulated to treat skin laxity and give a revitalised and invigorating lift to your skin. Very popular with the ‘A’ listers.
Areas are showing signs of skin laxity (loose and crepey skin). You could consider bioremodelling using Profhilo®.
It is important to remember that Profhilo is not like a dermal filler as it does not restore volume, however it is perfect for those looking for a natural improvement in skin’s quality and an excellent solution to those with crepey skin on the face and neck. Profhilo also comes in a Body formulation which really benefits crepey skin on the decolletage, knees and upper arms.

Polynucleotides
Polynucleotides are chains of nucleotides, which are essentially the building blocks that make up DNA. DNA controls many important bodily functions, including how the skin develops. When polynucleotide chains are introduced to the skin (through multiple small injections), they help damaged DNA cells in the skin to repair and as a result, the cells function better. For instance, polynucleotides stimulate fibroblast cells, which help form connective tissues like collagen and elastin – the essential proteins that provide the skin with shape, volume, and a youthful appearance.
The polynucleotide chains can also:
– Improve the extracellular matrix of skin cells, boosting hydration
– Stabilise pigmentation
– Reduce inflammation.
– Encourage hair growth
Polynucleotide treatments can also have an anti-free radical action, helping to counteract and protect the skin from factors like stress and the sun.
