Skin Booster Treatments
Am I a candidate?Skin boosters are treatments that are applied topically or just below the skin’s surface. They work wonderfully for anyone, male or female, who wants better skin. They typically include ingredients that humans already possess; we merely supplement our skincare routines with these products. Hydration is maintained, new collagen is prompted, and the skin’s natural glow and smoothness are preserved by skin boosters.
Your skin's tone, texture, and overall appearance will all improve quickly after receiving skin booster treatments. With regular treatments, your skin's elasticity and brightness will improve greatly. Various factors, like your age, lifestyle, and skin type, will determine how long your improvements last. At your consultation, we'll be able to offer you a more accurate estimate of how long your results will last.

Why try Skin Booster Treatments in Troy?
01
Hydrates and repairs the skin
The face, neck, and chest, as well as the backs of the hands, are all viable treatment areas for skin boosters. After a thorough cleansing, we will apply a topical numbing cream if necessary. Needles of a particularly small diameter are used for the treatment infusions, which are administered at a relatively low depth. The average course of treatment consists of three visits, with a fourth session for maintenance scheduled sometime within the following calendar year.
02
Whitens and brightens the skin
In many cases, they include substances that our bodies already possess, and we merely apply them just below the surface to give our skin a "boost" and a more radiant appearance.
03
Customizable
Skin booster Treatments can be tailored to your individual beauty concerns and skin type. Boosters are an excellent choice for achieving a glass-like radiance for your skin. They are also frequently used to administer growth factors to soften the skin, as well as to prevent wrinkles, whiten the skin for an extremely fair appearance, and provide anti-aging benefits. Antioxidants, minerals, amino acids, hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and other ingredients are sometimes used to achieve optimal results.

To prepare for Skin Booster Treatments in Troy, we suggest:
- Avoid the use of retinoids, topical antibiotics, exfoliants, AHAs (e.g., glycolic acid) and BHAs (e.g., salicylic acid), and other topical agents that increase skin sensitivity for at least a week before your treatment.
- Do not take anti-inflammatory and blood thinning medications, such as ibuprofen, aspirin, ginkgo, vitamin E, fish oil, etc., for at least three days to avoid interference with the natural inflammatory process.
- Do not have any IPL/Laser procedures for two weeks prior.
- Avoid sun exposure and all tanning methods for at least two weeks.
- Do not wax, epilate, use electrolysis, or any other hair removal methods on the treatment area for at least a week prior.
- Do not shave the treatment area on the day of the procedure to avoid irritation. If you have dense hair, closely shave the area the day before your appointment.
- Ensure you are properly hydrated, as this helps the healing process.
- Tell your specialist if you have been on Accutane in the last six months or if you are prone to cold sores.
- Please arrive with a bare treatment area, clean of any lotion, oil, makeup, powder, perfume, or sunscreen.
Following Skin Booster Treatments in Troy, it is important to:
- Avoid using anti-inflammatory medications (ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin, etc.) for at least a week. You may use Tylenol for any soreness.
