The Best Skin Boosters on the Market: A Guide to the Leading Treatments in Aesthetics

The aesthetics industry has seen a major shift in recent years. Rather than focusing solely on volume, contouring and traditional dermal fillers, both practitioners and patients are increasingly interested in skin quality, hydration, elasticity and natural looking rejuvenation.

 

That is where skin boosters come in.

Skin boosters are designed to improve the quality and condition of the skin rather than dramatically change facial shape. Depending on the product, they can help improve hydration, luminosity, elasticity, fine lines, texture and overall skin health.

Unlike traditional dermal fillers, which are primarily designed to restore volume or alter facial contours, skin boosters are generally used to improve the skin itself.

Depending on the formulation, this may involve:

• Deep hydration
• Improved skin elasticity
• Increased luminosity and radiance
• Softer-looking fine lines
• Improved texture
• Supporting collagen and elastin production
• Improving the appearance of crepey skin
• Supporting overall skin quality

A 2026 review in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology highlights just how broad the category has become, encompassing hyaluronic acid, biostimulatory polymers, polynucleotides, calcium hydroxyapatite, PRP, exosomes and other emerging approaches. (Wiley Online Library⁠)

 

With so many products now available, which are actually worth knowing about?

Here is our guide to some of the leading and increasingly popular skin boosters currently being used in aesthetic practice:

Profhilo®

 

 

 

 

If there is one treatment that has become synonymous with the modern skin booster category, it is Profhilo.

Profhilo uses a stabilised hyaluronic acid formulation and is designed primarily around hydration and bio-remodelling rather than traditional volumisation. It has become particularly popular for patients concerned with skin laxity, dehydration, dullness and early signs of ageing.

The treatment is also distinctive because of its recognised injection technique, commonly known as the 5 point bap technique, with specific points used across the face rather than treating the product like a conventional filler.

Profhilo’s appeal is its simplicity. It can give the skin a fresher, more hydrated appearance while maintaining a very natural result.

It is commonly used on areas including:

 

• Face
• Neck
• Décolletage
• Hands
• Other areas showing signs of skin laxity

Profhilo is also one of the better known products in the category, with a substantial amount of clinical and industry experience behind it.

Best suited to: patients looking for hydration, improved skin quality and a subtle improvement in firmness and radiance.

Seventy Hyal® 2000

 

Seventy Hyal 2000 has become a familiar name within UK aesthetics and is often positioned as a next generation hyaluronic acid skin booster.

The formulation uses hyaluronic acid with a high molecular weight alongside bio-stimulating components. The manufacturer’s stated objectives include hydration and stimulation of collagen and elastin production. 

One of its attractions is versatility. It can be used for clients wanting a more hydrated, luminous appearance without the contour-changing effect associated with traditional dermal filler.

Seventy Hyal is commonly considered for:

• Dehydrated skin
• Dull complexions
• Early signs of ageing
• Fine lines
• Skin lacking elasticity
• Face, neck, décolletage and hands

It has also become a popular option for patients who are new to injectable skin treatments. Current UK aesthetics coverage continues to list Seventy Hyal alongside Profhilo and other established skin boosters. 

Best suited to: hydration, glow and general skin rejuvenation, particularly where a patient wants a subtle result.

 

Jalupro®

Jalupro takes a slightly different approach.

Rather than relying solely on hyaluronic acid, Jalupro’s concept combines HA with amino acids designed to support the skin’s extracellular matrix and collagen production.

The range includes different formulations designed for different treatment requirements, making Jalupro an interesting option for practitioners who want more flexibility in their treatment protocols.

Its amino acid approach is particularly relevant when the objective is to support skin regeneration and collagen production, rather than simply providing hydration.

Jalupro has also been established in aesthetic medicine for many years, with the manufacturer describing its approach as “Collagen and Amino Acids Replacement Therapy.” 

Best suited to: patients looking for improvements in hydration, skin quality, elasticity and fine lines, particularly where a more regenerative approach is desired.

LUMI-PRO®

LUMI-PRO is one of the newer names to have gained attention in the UK skin booster market.

The brand describes LUMI-PRO as a UK developed range focused on skin, eye and lip rejuvenation. Its core skin booster is a high strength hyaluronic acid formulation intended to hydrate, firm and smooth the skin. 

One of the reasons LUMI-PRO has attracted interest from clinics is its positioning as a more accessible skin booster option.

The treatment is marketed for areas including:

• Face
• Neck
• Décolletage
• Hands

Best suited to: hydration, radiance and general skin-quality improvement, with additional products available for more targeted areas.

REVS PRO®

REVS PRO is another name appearing within the expanding skin booster market and is aimed at practitioners looking for injectable skin quality treatments rather than traditional dermal filler.

Like many newer products in this category, the appeal is centred around improving the appearance and condition of the skin while maintaining a natural aesthetic.

Best suited to: practitioners wanting another option within the growing injectable skin quality category.

Teosyal® Redensity 1

Teosyal Redensity 1 is another established name worth considering.

It sits within the injectable revitalisation category and is designed around improving skin quality, hydration and radiance rather than producing the structural changes associated with traditional filler.

Its inclusion in current UK skin booster guides alongside Profhilo, Seventy Hyal and Jalupro reflects its continuing relevance within the category.

Best suited to: patients looking for hydration, radiance and an overall improvement in skin quality.

Polynucleotides: the regenerative skin booster category

No discussion of modern skin boosters would be complete without polynucleotides.

Polynucleotide treatments have become one of the biggest trends in regenerative aesthetics, particularly for patients interested in improving skin quality rather than changing facial shape.

Products in this category include brands such as Vitaran, Plenhyage XL and Plinest, although formulations and indications differ between products.

Rather than thinking of polynucleotides as simply another form of hyaluronic acid skin booster, it is more useful to consider them as part of the wider regenerative injectable category.

They are increasingly used for concerns such as:

• Fine lines
• Crepey skin
• Poor skin quality
• Under-eye concerns
• Sun-damaged skin
• Reduced elasticity
• Overall skin rejuvenation

Current UK aesthetics reporting identifies polynucleotides as extremely popular, alongside Profhilo and other regenerative injectables.

However, “polynucleotides” is a category rather than a single product, so evidence should be assessed at the individual-product level.

Best suited to: patients prioritising skin regeneration, texture and quality rather than immediate hydration alone.

 

So, which skin booster is the best?

It is important to remember that “skin booster” is an umbrella term rather than a specific type of injectable. Two products can both be marketed as skin boosters while having very different ingredients, mechanisms and treatment objectives.

That is why choosing the right product should be based on the patient’s skin, concerns and desired outcome rather than simply choosing the most fashionable brand.

There isn’t one skin booster that is universally “best” but, there are certainly some market leaders, based on science and results. 

When selecting skin boosters to work with, you should always be asking yourself, which skin booster is best for this particular patient.

This is why many experienced practitioners now stock several different skin boosters rather than relying on one product for every patient.
