Biorevitalisation and skinboosters

Superficial microinjections of fluid or lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid intended to support hydration and skin quality without adding volume.

This page provides general information and does not replace an individual medical consultation. Indication, product, technique and treatment plan are decided only after assessment; not every treatment is suitable for every person.

What it is

Biorevitalisation and skinbooster are overlapping terms for superficial microinjections, often using fluid or lightly cross-linked hyaluronic acid. Products and compositions differ, so the exact substance must be identified.

What is assessed

The consultation considers dehydrated, dull or less elastic skin and fine lines on areas such as the face, neck and décolletage. Product, programme and number of sessions vary.

How treatment is carried out

After assessment and consent, small quantities are placed superficially across the selected area. The product, pattern and treatment programme depend on skin characteristics and the intended aim.

Limits and alternatives

These treatments are intended for hydration and tissue quality rather than structural volume. Changes are gradual, variable and temporary, and do not replace skincare, sun protection or surgery.

What the literature says

A systematic review reported improvements in hydration, firmness, elasticity and luminosity after injectable hyaluronic acid, while noting that large randomised studies remain limited and that evidence for multi-ingredient cocktails is less clear.

Risks and unwanted effects

Small raised injection points, redness, swelling and bruising are expected possibilities. Less commonly, lumps, inflammatory reactions or vascular complications may occur. Results are gradual, variable and temporary.

Contraindications and medical assessment

Treatment is generally avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding, active infection or inflammation and known allergy. Medical history and medicines must be reviewed before treatment.

Aftercare and follow-up

Small raised points, redness or bruising may be visible temporarily. Aftercare and the timing of review depend on the product and area.

Frequently asked questions

Is a skinbooster a filler?

Both may contain hyaluronic acid, but skinboosters are generally used superficially for skin quality rather than structural volume.
