Skin hydration, elasticity, and firmness- it’s so important to keep these factors in mind when you’re doing your skincare. Luckily, there are so many innovative cosmetic treatments nowadays that can help. With so many, however, how do you know which procedure will improve your skin health the best? Read on to find out!

Introduction

Fine lines, wrinkles, and dehydration are the biggest enemies to healthy, glowing skin. All of these, however, can be solved by modern cosmetic treatments such as:

• Skin Boosters
• Profhilo
• Micro-Infusion Facials

What are Skin Boosters?

Skin boosters are dermal injectables designed to improve skin elasticity, texture, & hydration. An example of a skin booster is Volite. This cosmetic treatment involves injecting hyaluronic acid into the skin to improve hydration, elasticity, and firmness. (As most of you may already know that hyaluronic acid is an important ingredient that keeps the skin hydrated and plump.) Furthermore, multiple injections are placed into targeted areas of the skin, providing a subtle but noticeable improvement in skin texture and appearance. Overall, skin boosters are often used as a preventative measure to slow down the aging process and maintain a youthful, healthy appearance.

Benefits of Skin Boosters

• Increased hydration

• Improved elasticity and firmness
• Smoother skin texture
• Even skin tone
• Long-lasting results: 3-4 months

What is Profhilo?

Profhilo is one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market. Unfortunately, it's not yet available in the US market. It actually differs from your traditional dermal filler. Instead of adding volume to the skin, Profhilo stimulates the skin’s collagen and elastin production. The treatment involves injecting small amounts of hyaluronic acid into specific areas where it gradually releases over a period of several weeks. This slow release allows the HA to stimulate the skin's natural production of collagen and elastin, resulting in a smoother, more hydrated, and youthful-looking complexion.

Benefits of Profhilo

• Improved skin hydration
• Increased skin elasticity
• Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Long-lasting and natural looking results: about 6 months

What is a Micro-infusion Facial?

A Micro-infusion facial is a cosmetic procedure that uses a special device to deliver a customized mixture of ingredients into the skin. The device itself contains multiple tiny needles that create micro-channels in the skin's surface, allowing the ingredients to penetrate deeply and effectively. Some common ingredients used include hyaluronic acid, peptides, vitamins, and antioxidants. As a result, these ingredients also work together to hydrate, nourish, and rejuvenate the skin, leaving it looking smoother, brighter, and more youthful.

Benefits of Micro-infusion Facials

• Improved hydration
• Increased collagen production
• Reduced fine lines and wrinkles
• Even skin tone
• Minimal downtime: Micro-infusion facial is a minimally invasive treatment that typically involves little to no downtime, making it a convenient option for individuals with busy lifestyles.
