Skin boosters & biostimulators
This category includes treatments with very different ingredients and purposes. A hydration-focused injectable is not the same as a volumizing filler or a collagen-stimulating product such as Sculptra.
Who it may suit
A treatment for your concern.
Not everyone’s concern.
Patients concerned about skin quality or selected volume loss who are suitable for the specific product. Treatment area, formulation and local regulatory status must all be checked.
Where it may be used
Only product-appropriate areas. Under-eye and thin-skin treatment need particular caution.

Understand the treatment
What happens
beneath the surface?
Hyaluronic-acid products can provide hydration or volume depending on formulation. Biostimulators trigger a tissue response over time. Juvelook, Sculptra, PDRN and other products are not interchangeable and should not share a single blanket claim.

Common questions
Before you book.
How does Juvelook differ from Sculptra?
Their formulations and clinical uses differ. The provider must explain which product is available, suitable and permitted for the proposed use.
Is a skin booster Botox?
No. Botox reduces selected muscle activity; boosters and biostimulators have different purposes.
