Designed to deeply hydrate the skin from within, they improve texture, elasticity and radiance while creating subtle, natural-looking improvements that continue to develop over time.
What are skin boosters?
Skin boosters are injectable treatments that improve skin quality by delivering hyaluronic acid directly into the skin. Rather than restoring volume or changing your facial contours, they focus on improving hydration beneath the surface. This helps the skin retain moisture more effectively, creating a smoother texture, softer appearance and healthier-looking complexion.
Unlike treatments that work across larger areas of the face, skin boosters can be used to target specific concerns, making them a versatile option for improving skin quality exactly where it’s needed.
Treatment may be suitable if you’re noticing:
They’re often chosen by patients who want their skin to look fresher and healthier while maintaining a completely natural appearance.
As natural levels decline, the skin can become drier, rougher and less able to reflect light evenly. Skin boosters replenish hydration directly within the skin using hyaluronic acid in carefully considered placements. This helps improve moisture levels, smoothness and elasticity while supporting healthier skin from within.
Because treatment can be tailored to individual areas, skin boosters are particularly useful for concerns that don’t affect the whole face, allowing treatment to be focused where it’s likely to have the greatest benefit.
Skin boosters can be used in different areas of the face, so treatment should start with understanding what you actually want to improve. It might be skin that feels persistently dehydrated, fine lines that have become more noticeable or an area that simply doesn’t look as fresh as it used to.
At Drayton House, your treatment will be carried out by Dr Rakhee Raichoora, a qualified dentist and advanced facial aesthetic practitioner. She’ll look carefully at your skin, listen to what’s bothering you and talk through where skin boosters could make the most noticeable difference.
Rakhee wants her patients to feel comfortable asking questions and talking openly about the result they have in mind. She’ll explain what skin boosters can realistically achieve and, if she thinks Profhilo®, polynucleotides or another approach would suit your skin better, she’ll say so. The result we’re aiming for isn’t skin that looks obviously treated. It’s smoother, better-hydrated, healthier-looking skin that still looks completely natural.
Your appointment begins with an assessment of your skin and a discussion about what you’d like to improve.
The treatment will focus on carefully selected areas and is usually completed in around 30 minutes.
Depending on your skin and the product selected, Dr Rakhee may recommend an initial course of treatments followed by maintenance appointments to help maintain your results.
Some redness, swelling or small bumps at the treatment sites are normal immediately afterwards, but these usually settle quickly, and most patients can return to their usual activities the same day.

Skin boosters are injectable treatments that use hyaluronic acid to improve hydration within the skin. They help improve texture, elasticity and overall skin quality without adding volume.
Skin boosters can improve dehydrated skin, rough texture, fine lines, dullness and crepey skin while creating a fresher, healthier-looking complexion.
Both treatments improve skin hydration, but they work differently. Profhilo® spreads beneath the skin to improve hydration and firmness across larger areas, while skin boosters are used more precisely to treat specific areas of concern.
Skin boosters focus on restoring hydration within the skin using hyaluronic acid. Polynucleotides work differently by stimulating the skin’s natural repair processes and encouraging collagen and elastin production.
Yes. Depending on the product used and your individual suitability, skin boosters can be used to improve hydration and skin quality in delicate areas, including beneath the eyes.
The number of treatments depends on your skin and the product being used. Dr Rakhee will recommend a treatment plan that’s tailored to your individual needs.
Many patients begin to notice improvements in hydration and skin texture within the first few weeks, with continued improvements as the skin retains moisture more effectively.
Most patients return to their usual routine the same day. Mild redness, swelling or small bumps at the treatment sites are common immediately afterwards and generally settle within a short period.
