Skin ageing presents as fine lines, a duller complexion and uneven skin tone. Recently, a new category of injectables, often dubbed injectable moisturisers or skin boosters, have become a go-to treatment for delivering an instant hit of hydration and radiance.
Unlike traditional dermal fillers which add volume and contour the face, injectables such as Profhilo and Teosyal’s Redensity 1 contain high levels of hyaluronic acid which spreads evenly throughout the skin to boost skin hydration.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring component of the dermis which can hold 1000% times its weight in water. As we age, our natural level of HA begins to deplete.
