Skin Quality · Hydration

Skin Boosters

Skin boosters deliver micro-droplets of soft hyaluronic acid into the skin itself — not to add volume, but to improve hydration, elasticity and overall skin quality from within. The result most clients notice is skin that looks rested, hydrated and healthy.

In brief

NexGen Clinic provides skin booster treatments in Cambridge, using micro-injections of hyaluronic acid to improve skin hydration, elasticity and glow rather than adding volume. Treatment is consultation-led, typically delivered as a short course, and suits dull, dehydrated or tired-looking skin on the face, neck and hands.

The NexGen approach

Considered, consultation-led skin boosters

They are one of our most-requested treatments for dull or dehydrated skin, early texture changes, and for clients who want their skin to look better without changing their features. Popular options include Profhilo and Seventy Hyal, chosen at consultation based on your skin.

Who this may suit

  • Dull, dehydrated or tired-looking skin
  • Early fine lines and crepey texture
  • Loss of glow after busy periods, travel or seasonal changes
  • Neck, décolletage and hands as well as the face
  • Clients who want skin quality improvements, not volume change

We assess your skin quality — often with AI skin analysis — and discuss whether skin boosters, polynucleotides or a combination plan best fits your goals. You will get an honest view of what a course can achieve and how it compares with alternatives such as Profhilo.

Skin Boosters questions

Frequently asked questions

Skin boosters vs Profhilo — what is the difference?

Profhilo is a bio-remodelling product that spreads through the skin from a few injection points; classic skin boosters place many micro-droplets across the area. Both improve skin quality — we recommend the right route for your skin at consultation. Our Journal has a full comparison guide.

How many sessions will I need?

Most courses start with two sessions around a month apart, followed by maintenance every 6–9 months depending on your skin and goals.

Will skin boosters change my face shape?

No — skin boosters hydrate and improve skin quality. They are not volumising fillers and will not alter your features.

When will I see results?

Many clients notice improved hydration within days, with skin quality improvements developing over several weeks as collagen support builds.
