The treatment
What are stem cell skin boosters?
Skin boosters are micro-injections of hydrating and bioactive ingredients into the superficial dermis to improve skin quality. Our protocol combines stem cell–derived factors with hyaluronic acid and antioxidants to enhance hydration, signal collagen production and calm inflammation.
The result is plumper, more luminous skin with minimal downtime. Our signature Stem Cell Skin Injection adds PRP and blood stem cells for a more intensive effect.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Are skin boosters the same as filler?
No. Boosters spread a thin layer of hydration and bioactive ingredients through the skin. They do not add shape or volume like filler.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients have 2–3 sessions, 3–4 weeks apart, then maintain every 6–12 months.
Does it hurt?
Topical numbing is applied first, so most patients feel only brief pinpricks.
Can I treat my neck and hands too?
Yes. Boosters are commonly used on the neck and the backs of the hands as well as the face.
How soon will I see results?
Skin often looks more hydrated within days, with texture improving over the following weeks.
