Viscoderm Hydrobooster is an injectable Hyaluronic Acid product that has been formulated to improve the skin’s elasticity, hydration and radiance, it also smooths superficial fine lines and wrinkles caused by dynamic facial expression. It is not a filler it is what we call a skin booster.

Viscoderm Hydrobooster has two functions which both help to stretch superficial wrinkles in a natural way, resulting in its unique HYDROSTRETCH action.

Action one is deep hydration
Improving elasticity, radiance and smoothness of the skin.
Biorestructuring activity prolonged over time.

Action two is tissue restructuring
Stretching superficial wrinkles for those with moderate to advanced signs of ageing.
Particularly indicated for dynamic areas of the face around the eyes, mouth and forehead.

 

How many treatments are required ?

For best results possible from Viscoderm Hydrobooster treatments, most people need two separate treatments 8 weeks apart. However some people need only one treatment.

How long does Viscoderm Hydrobooster last ?

The results last about 6 months.

What to expect during a Viscoderm Hydrobooster

The full procedure can take between and hour and 90 minutes.
We will apply numbing cream for 20 minutes before your treatment commences.

The treatment itself involves multiple tiny injections and runs a high risk of developing small bruises.

The results can be seen after 2 weeks but it takes 8 weeks to appreciate the full results.

We will arrange a check up 6 to 8 weeks after your treatment and schedule your next treatment should you need it shortly after.

Is Viscoderm Hydrobooster Safe ?

Viscoderm Hydrobooster is a hyaluronic acid skin booster made by IBSA famous for manufacturing profhilo.
There products have a great safety record and can be hylased should any adverse event occur.

Is Viscoderm Hydrobooster for me ?

We recommend this if your skin looks dull, dry and lacklustre and if fine lines and wrinkles have become more noticeable over the last few years especially around the mouth, eyes and forehead.

How do I book a Viscoderm Hydrobooster treatment ?

Please arrange a consultation to assess your suitability for the treatment. If suitable we can then council you what to do before and after treatment and time the treatment when it would not be a problem to cover bruising.

Due to the time required to perform this procedure we can not perform the treatment on the same day as the consultation.

Your skin is the biggest organ in the body. It needs hydration and nutrition to ensure it is healthy and fit for use. mesotherapy is a treatment that can ensure our skin gets the nutrition it needs.

What is mesotherapy?

Mesotherapy is a method which uses needles to insert natural extracts, homeopathic agents, pharmaceuticals, minerals, antioxidants and vitamins into the skin, where they are the most effective. The therapy is very individual and the products used depend on the state on the skin. Those products stimulate the fibroblasts into production of collagen, elastin and extracellular matter, and protect the cells from damage caused by free radicals.
