Skin boosters or dermal fillers: which is right for you?

They sound similar, but skin boosters and dermal fillers do very different things. Here is how to tell which one suits your goals.

Skin boosters and dermal fillers are both injectable treatments, and they are often confused. The truth is they do very different jobs. Understanding the difference helps you choose the treatment that actually matches your goals.

Dermal fillers add structure

Dermal fillers use a smooth hyaluronic acid gel to add subtle volume, structure and definition. They are the right choice if you want to enhance your lips, restore volume to the cheeks, or add balance and definition to the chin and jawline. Results are visible straight away.

Skin boosters improve skin quality

Skin boosters, such as Sunekos and NCTF, are not about volume. They deliver hyaluronic acid, amino acids and nutrients into the skin to improve hydration, texture and glow from within. They are ideal if your concern is dull, tired or dehydrated skin rather than lost volume.

So which should you choose?

• Choose dermal fillers to add volume, definition or structure
• Choose skin boosters to improve hydration, texture and radiance
• Some people benefit from a combination over time

The honest answer is that the best choice depends on your skin and your goals, which is exactly what a consultation is for. We will assess your skin and recommend the approach that gives you the most natural, long-lasting result.
