Skin boosters vs mesotherapy

If you’ve been researching advanced skin rejuvenation treatments, you’ve probably come across two popular options, skin boosters and mesotherapy. While both involve small injections of active ingredients to nourish and revitalise the skin, they work in slightly different ways and are suited to different skin needs.

At Beauty Bar in Ware, Hertfordshire, we offer both skin boosters and mesotherapy to help you get smoother, brighter, and moisturised skin. Let’s see how these treatments differ, what benefits they offer, and which one might be right for you.

 

What are skin boosters?

Skin boosters are a hydrating injectable treatment that works from within to improve the overall quality of your skin. They are made primarily from hyaluronic acid (HA), a molecule in the skin known for its ability to attract and retain moisture.

When injected just beneath the surface of the skin, the hyaluronic acid spreads evenly to deeply hydrate and stimulate collagen and elastin production, which leads to firmer, smoother, and more radiant skin.

 

Popular skin booster brands

Some of the most well-known skin booster treatments in the UK include:

• Profhilo®
• Seventy Hyal 2000®
• Sunekos®
• Jalupro®
• Ejal 40®

Each brand has slightly different formulations and properties, but all share the same goal: to improve skin texture, elasticity, and glow.

 

Benefits of skin boosters

• Deep hydration for dull, tired skin
• Reduction in fine lines and early wrinkles
• Improved elasticity and firmness
• A smoother, dewy complexion
• Suitable for face, neck, décolletage, and hands

Skin boosters are very effective for people experiencing dry and dehydrated skin, early signs of ageing, or loss of skin firmness. They are often referred to as the “injectable moisturiser” because they work from within to restore natural radiance.

What is mesotherapy?

Mesotherapy is another non-surgical skin rejuvenation treatment that involves injecting a tailored blend of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid into the skin.

Unlike skin boosters, which focus on hydration and collagen stimulation, mesotherapy can be customised for specific skin concerns, such as pigmentation, acne, dullness, or even hair thinning.

 

How mesotherapy works

Using very fine needle, small amounts of the solution rich in nutrients and active ingredients, are injected into targeted areas. The formula improves and revitalises the skin and skin conditions, while the injection process itself triggers micro-healing responses, improves circulation and encourages the body’s natural collagen production.

 

Benefits of mesotherapy

• Customisable to target specific skin issues like acne or rosacea
• Improves tone, texture, and radiance
• Reduces pigmentation and acne marks
• Helps with hair rejuvenation (scalp or eyebrow mesotherapy)
• Can enhance the effects of other treatments (like microneedling or peels)

 

Differences between skin boosters and mesotherapy

 

• Skin boosters

Main ingredients – Hyaluronic acid, sometimes polynucleotides or calcium hydroxyapatite

Main goal – Deep hydration, smooth texture, plumper skin

Injection technique – Micro injections or BAP points

Treatment course – Usually 2-3 sessions, 4 weeks apart

Best for – Ageing, dull, dehydrated skin

 

• Mesotherapy

Main ingredients – Vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antioxidants, HA

Main goal – Correct specific skin concerns (pigmentation, acne, tone)

Injection technique – Multiple micro-deposits across a wider area

Treatment course – Usually 3-6 sessions, depending on concern

Best for – Pigmentation, acne, uneven tone, or hair loss

 

Which treatment should you choose?

Choosing between skin boosters and mesotherapy depends on your skin type, age, and specific goals.

• Choose skin boosters if your main concern is dryness, fine lines, or loss of elasticity. You want hydrated, glowing, plumper and younger looking skin with minimal downtime.
• Choose mesotherapy if you’re targeting specific concerns such as pigmentation, acne scars, uneven tone, or you want an overall vitamin and collagen boost.

Both treatments can complement each other beautifully, some clients start with mesotherapy to improve skin health and then maintain their glow with regular skin booster sessions.

 

Treatment frequency and maintenance

Skin boosters – Usually 2-3 sessions, 4 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every 4-6 months.

Mesotherapy – Typically 4-6 sessions spaced 3 weeks apart, followed by occasional maintenance sessions or as required.
