Skin boosters have become one of the fastest-growing aesthetic treatments in South London, thanks to TikTok, Instagram and word-of-mouth results. But many clients ask: “How are skin boosters different from fillers?”
Here’s the full breakdown.
What Are Skin Boosters?
Skin boosters (like Profhilo, Seventy Hyal and Lumi Eyes) are injectable moisturisers made of pure hyaluronic acid.
They:
Deeply hydrate the skin
Improve texture & elasticity
Give a glowing, youthful appearance
Reduce fine lines
Restore skin health
They do not add volume — they improve skin quality.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are gel-like hyaluronic acid injections used for:
Lip enhancement
Chin & jawline contour
Cheek definition
Under-eye rejuvenation
Nasolabial folds
Non-surgical rhinoplasty
Fillers add structure, shape, and volume.
