Discover Skin boosters at our Northwood clinic

Skin boosters are injectable treatments or serums delivered into the skin that improve texture, tone, hydration and firmness by stimulating your body’s natural regenerative processes. Unlike traditional fillers, they do not just add volume, they rebuild the skin from within.

Think of them as your internal moisturiser, supporting skin quality from the inside out using tailored, evidence based ingredients.

We offer a range of skin boosters at our Northwood clinic, including hyaluronic acid, polynucleotides, collagen stimulators, exosomes and bio stimulating fillers, each one selected based on your individual skin needs.

What is the difference between Skin Boosters and Dermal (HA) Fillers?

While both are maybe made of hyaluronic acid (HA), Dermal Fillers restore lost volume, contour, and lift features, injected at a deeper level with a thicker consistency. In contrast, Skin Boosters are more superficial and aimed at hydrating and improving overall skin quality rather than adding volume, there are however HA based Skin Boosters.

One of the most popular HA based skin boosters options is Profhilo, an award-winning treatment designed to improve skin quality from within.

What is Profhilo Skin Booster?

Profhilo is a unique injectable made of stabilised hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance naturally found in the skin that binds water and supports collagen and elastin production. Unlike traditional dermal fillers, Profhilo is not used to change facial shape or add volume. Instead, it spreads evenly beneath the skin, creating a refreshed, hydrated and firmer appearance.

How does Profhilo work?

Once injected, Profhilo stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin, while attracting water into the deeper layers of the skin. This dual action provides both intense hydration and bio-remodelling, giving your skin a smoother texture and natural glow.

Loved my HydraFacial with Malini & Polynucleotide treatment with Dr Sabika. Got this combo at skin medical and wow – instant glow from the facial, plus long-term plumping from the polynucleotides. My skin looks fresher after just one session! Quick, comfortable, and zero downtime. The staff was wonderful too. Would highly recommend this clinic

Dr Saif is the best . I came all the way from Sweden for my treatment and he’s my favourite doctor in London. He was very caring professional.

Polynucleotides

Known as the next generation of regenerative injectables, polynucleotides are DNA fragments usually derived from salmon that instruct your skin cells to produce new collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. They improve elasticity, smoothness and barrier function — especially useful for inflammation, post acne scarring or tired looking skin.

Great for patients in their 20s to 40s

What does Profhilo do?

Profhilo skin boosters spreads evenly beneath the skin, drawing in water to hydrate and stimulating fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin. The result is smoother, firmer and more radiant skin.

How long does Profhilo last?

Profhilo skin boosters results typically last around 6 months. Many patients choose top-up Profhilo skin boosters in the Northwood clinic every 6–9 months to maintain hydration and firmness. These are always administered by our fully qualified team under a professional CQC setting.

Juvederm Skinvive is the first FDA-approved skin booster in the Juvederm family, designed to improve cheek skin smoothness and hydration with long-lasting results. Both treatments work beneath the surface to restore glow, elasticity and suppleness, offering subtle but noticeable improvements for patients seeking natural skin quality enhancement.
