Hydrating skin boosters

As we age or face environmental stress, our skin loses moisture, elasticity, and that youthful glow. This is where hydrating skin boosters, like Profhilo and Restylane Vital come in. These injectable treatments deliver deep, long-lasting hydration and stimulate collagen production – restoring radiance without changing facial expressions and structure.
What are Hydrating Skin Boosters?
Hydrating skin boosters are injectable treatments designed to deeply hydrate and improve the quality of your skin. Unlike traditional fillers, they don’t add volume or reshape your features. Instead, they deliver hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin, directly into the dermis to restore moisture and elasticity from within.
The two options we recommend are:
- Profhilo: Known for its bio-remodelling properties and ultra-pure formulation, Profhilo® spreads evenly under the skin to hydrate, smooth, and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin.
- Restylane Vital: A highly effective skin booster, that works by targeting fine lines and texture, all while improving the firmness, hydration, and luminosity of the skin.
Skin boosters are ideal for clients who want to act on the first signs of ageing. Consequently improving the overall condition of the skin.
How the treatment works:
Unlike surface-level creams or serums, Profhilo and Restylane Vital work from the inside out.
Once injected, these boosters slowly release hyaluronic acid into the deeper layers of the skin. This hydration stimulates your body’s own collagen and elastin production. These are key elements for firm, healthy skin.
- Profhilo acts like a “skin scaffold,” spreading through the tissue to boost overall hydration and skin texture. Its unique formulation contains one of the highest concentrations of hyaluronic acid on the market.
- Restylane Vital, on the other hand, works through microinjections across the treatment area, improving elasticity, smoothness, and tone with visible precision.
What to expect after treatment:
Mild swelling, redness or small bumps at injection sites may occur but typically subside within 24-48 hours.
When to expect results:
While everyone’s skin responds differently, most people begin to notice improvements within one to two weeks after their first treatment.
- Profhilo: Results often become visible after the second session, usually spaced about 4 weeks apart. Skin feels firmer, smoother, and more luminous.
- Restylane Vital: Improvements can appear after just one session, with full results developing after a series of 2–3 treatments, spaced 2–4 weeks apart.
The effects of both boosters can last up to 6 to 9 months, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and the specific product used. Regular maintenance treatments will keep your skin looking fresh, hydrated, and youthful.

Always a friendly welcome when you walk through the door. Lisa as usual administered my Botox wonderfully and always offers a two week aftercare is needed. T.A Roberts2025-03-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After consulting a few Dermatologists, I found Persona Medical Aesthetics to be the most suitable and the most affordable. I had been on a waiting list for almost a year and decided to go private. I am so glad that I decided to have treatment there for a small cyst on my abdomen. Dr Lisa was absolutely brilliant during the very reasonably priced consultation. Dr Debra who performed the surgery, which took less than an hour, was so calming and generally interested in my chatter as I distracted myself from the actual treatment. I was provided with bandages and aftercare advice, I returned that week to have the stitches removed. You can hardly notice the scar after a few weeks and I was so relieved to have it removed. So thank you Dr Lisa, Dr Debra and their colleagues at Persona. I will definitely recommend their services.

Olivia is really lovely and made me feel at ease before, during and after facial. I felt relaxed. I was happy of how glowy and hydrated my skin became after. My skin is looking better and glad I had it done. I’ll definitely be back to try other treatments also. I’m amazed on how many different things Persona offer. Lastly Lovely reception team too.
