Before & After

How do Skin Boosters work?

At Sunshine Cosmetic Clinic and Medi Spa, we offer a great selection of different types of skin boosters as well as delivery options to the skin. Depending on the types of skin boosters and corresponding guidelines and regulations from Health Canada, we either use a needle or mesotherapy gun to micro-inject them into the skin, or JetPeel, our advanced needleless technology to deliver them into the dermis without breaking the skin, or apply them topically after microneedling or micro-channeling.

Once the treatment is completed, skin boosters will integrate into the skin naturally and improve the skin conditions from the inside out. The hyaluronic acid and other skin nutrition that are slowly released into the skin, introduce a chain reaction of events. This stimulates your skin to produce more collagen and elastin and thus makes your skin firmer, smoother, brighter, and more youthful.

Where can Skin Boosters be used?

Skin boosters can be used to treat many different body areas. The most common one is the face, followed by the neck, décolletage, and dorsum of the hands.

Who is a good candidate for a Skin Booster treatment?

Skin boosters are one of the most versatile treatments that work for people of all ages, skin types, and genders. Anyone looking to hydrate, plump, and smooth their skin is a good candidate for this treatment. Skin boosters are very effective to address dryness, roughness, and fine lines and can also significantly improve skin tone and texture.

FAQ's

Are Skin Boosters safe?

Skin boosters are either applied topically or injected superficially into the skin. So they are generally very safe if operated by a well-trained professional.

Do Skin Booster treatment hurt? What does it feel like?

Depending on the different types of skin boosters and delivery procedures, it can be painless, with minor discomfort, or with bearable pain. If injected with needles, a numbing cream is required prior to the treatment and it will still hurt a little but is bearable in most cases. If injected with the U225 device, our state-of-the-art mesotherapy gun (or mesogun), you will experience minor discomfort if numbing cream is not applied or nearly zero pain if numbing cream is applied. It is completely painless if injected with JetPeel, our non-invasive, needleless procedure. Last, topical application won’t hurt, however, before the skin boosters are applied, the microneedling or micro-channeling procedure to create microscopic punctures on the skin might introduce minor discomfort.

Is there any downtime after a Skin Booster treatment?

It depends on the delivery method to be used. For the needles and microneedling, the downtime can be 1-3 days. In this case, you might experience some pinkness, tenderness, and/or minor swelling or bruise immediately after the treatment, which should be resolved within 3 days. For the U225 mesotherapy gun and micro-channeling, it would be zero downtime to 1 day. If JetPeel is used, there is no downtime.

How many Skin Booster treatments will I need?

A typical Skin Booster treatment program requires 3 sessions to show optimal results and is normally performed 3-4 weeks apart. After these 3 initial treatments are completed, maintenance treatments are recommended every 3-6 months.
